How are Spring objects represented at runtime?

Question

I have an app that uses the \"task:scheduler\" and \"task:scheduled-tasks\" elements (the latter containing \"task:scheduled\" elements). This is all working fine.

Answer 1

With @Scheduled based configuration the approach from Tobias M’s answer does not work out-of-the-box.

Instead of autowiring a ScheduledTaskRegistrar instance (which is not available for annotation based configuration), you can instead autowire a ScheduledTaskHolder which only has a getScheduledTasks() method.

Background:

The ScheduledAnnotationBeanPostProcessor used to manage @Scheduled tasks has an internal ScheduledTaskRegistrar that’s not available as a bean. It does implement ScheduledTaskHolder, though.
