[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-3119) Recurring timer might executed concurrent if the duration of the timeout method will be longer than the interval

[Wolf-Dieter Fink (Commented) (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3119?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12654580#comment-12654580 ] 

Wolf-Dieter Fink commented on AS7-3119:
---------------------------------------

The intetion is to restore the behaviour of the former AS4/5 timer.
Here recurring timer are not executed concurrent, but invoked once if a execution is missed because of crash/shutdown.
This might prevent application migration effort.

Nevertheless a configurable behaviour is still another enhanced solution.

> Timer with a short interval might be called before the previous execution is finished.
> This concurrent execution might harm the Bean provider expectations and implementation.
> In previous releases (AS5 EAP5) the execution is dropped in this case.
