EJB Timer Wizard

A new wizard for the creation of EJB Timers is now available. EJB Timers were introduced in the EJB 3.1 specification, greatly simplifying the ability to schedule events according to a calendar-based schedule.



The wizard can be invoked from the Java EE artifacts drop-down list in the main toolbar.


The wizard allows calendar-based scheduling declarations and generates a Stateless Session Bean with a EJB Timer callback method.
