Class DefaultScheduler

java.lang.Object

com.thebuzzmedia.exiftool.core.schedulers.DefaultScheduler

All Implemented Interfaces:

Scheduler

public class DefaultScheduler
extends Object
implements Scheduler

Default implementation for exiftool Scheduler.
This scheduler will execute a task in a specified amount of time:

• Time must be specified during construction.
• Time unit (milliseconds, seconds, hours, etc.) may be defined during construction.

Note: This scheduler will stop pending task when instance is garbage collected. This is just a small security but we cannot guarantee when instance will be garbage collected. For this reason, it should be up to the caller to stop this scheduler when it is not needed anymore.
