Apache TomEE

In this example we exercise the TimerService.

``The TimerService interface provides enterprise bean components with access to the container-provided Timer Service. The EJB Timer Service allows entity beans, stateless session beans, and message-driven beans to be registered for timer callback events at a specified time, after a specified elapsed time, or after a specified interval.''

For a complete description of the TimerService, please refer to the Java EE tutorial dedicated to the Timer Service.

FarmerBrown

At PostConstruct we create 5 programmatic timers. First four will most likely not be triggered during the test execution, however the last one will timeout a couple of times.

Each timer contains an info attribute, which can be inspected at timeout.

package org.superbiz.corn;

import jakarta.annotation.PostConstruct;
import jakarta.annotation.Resource;
import jakarta.ejb.Lock;
import jakarta.ejb.LockType;
import jakarta.ejb.ScheduleExpression;
import jakarta.ejb.Singleton;
import jakarta.ejb.Startup;
import jakarta.ejb.Timeout;
import jakarta.ejb.Timer;
import jakarta.ejb.TimerConfig;
import jakarta.ejb.TimerService;
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger;

/**
 * This is where we schedule all of Farmer Brown's corn jobs
 *
 * @version $Revision$ $Date$
 */
@Singleton
@Lock(LockType.READ) // allows timers to execute in parallel
@Startup
public class FarmerBrown {

    private final AtomicInteger checks = new AtomicInteger();

    @Resource
    private TimerService timerService;

    @PostConstruct
    private void construct() {
        final TimerConfig plantTheCorn = new TimerConfig("plantTheCorn", false);
        timerService.createCalendarTimer(new ScheduleExpression().month(5).dayOfMonth("20-Last").minute(0).hour(8), plantTheCorn);
        timerService.createCalendarTimer(new ScheduleExpression().month(6).dayOfMonth("1-10").minute(0).hour(8), plantTheCorn);

        final TimerConfig harvestTheCorn = new TimerConfig("harvestTheCorn", false);
        timerService.createCalendarTimer(new ScheduleExpression().month(9).dayOfMonth("20-Last").minute(0).hour(8), harvestTheCorn);
        timerService.createCalendarTimer(new ScheduleExpression().month(10).dayOfMonth("1-10").minute(0).hour(8), harvestTheCorn);

        final TimerConfig checkOnTheDaughters = new TimerConfig("checkOnTheDaughters", false);
        timerService.createCalendarTimer(new ScheduleExpression().second("*").minute("*").hour("*"), checkOnTheDaughters);
    }

    @Timeout
    public void timeout(Timer timer) {
        if ("plantTheCorn".equals(timer.getInfo())) {
            plantTheCorn();
        } else if ("harvestTheCorn".equals(timer.getInfo())) {
            harvestTheCorn();
        } else if ("checkOnTheDaughters".equals(timer.getInfo())) {
            checkOnTheDaughters();
        }
    }

    private void plantTheCorn() {
        // Dig out the planter!!!
    }

    private void harvestTheCorn() {
        // Dig out the combine!!!
    }

    private void checkOnTheDaughters() {
        checks.incrementAndGet();
    }

    public int getChecks() {
        return checks.get();
    }
}

FarmerBrownTest

The test class acquires an instance from the context and waits for 5 seconds to give the timers a chance to timeout.

package org.superbiz.corn;

import junit.framework.TestCase;

import jakarta.ejb.embeddable.EJBContainer;
import javax.naming.Context;

import static java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit.SECONDS;

/**
 * @version $Revision$ $Date$
 */
public class FarmerBrownTest extends TestCase {

    public void test() throws Exception {

        final Context context = EJBContainer.createEJBContainer().getContext();

        final FarmerBrown farmerBrown = (FarmerBrown) context.lookup("java:global/schedule-expression/FarmerBrown");

        // Give Farmer brown a chance to do some work
        Thread.sleep(SECONDS.toMillis(5));

        final int checks = farmerBrown.getChecks();
        assertTrue(checks + "", checks > 4);
    }
}
