how to write process to execute batch jop on particular date.

[laungarth]

Hi every body,

I have some question about how I am going to write process to execute batch job on particular date.

Assumption:

1. I need to write Action class which can execute batch process.

2. It needs to has a condition.
2.1 process will go back to check the last successful run date.
2.1 when process found the date, it will start to run batch job from that date + 1 (next day of last successful run date) to system date - 1.

(EX. Batch job was ran on last Friday but it fail to run on Sat and Sunday. So, we found out on next Monday. We need to run batch process for result on Saturday and Sunday)

Thank you in advance.

My apology. I tried to withdraw it but I couldn't.

I suggest using one of the following ways:

1. Use Quartz scheduler to schedule your jobs (if tasks executes successfully, mark the status of that day's task in a status file, it will tell you where to start from in case of failure)
2. User java provided Timertask (if your execution duration is fixed), you can take the execution duration from a properties file and can make it dynamic (above mentioned strategy can be used for status checking)
3. If you are on Linux/Unix platform, cron can be used. (You will have to write scripts in this case)
