Hi, my application has to to some tasks regularly, e.g. deleting old reports, getting new currency exchange rates. Is there alreday some basic funktionality in Pharo where I can add my application specific tasks or do I have to implement it from scratch?

Hi, you can use Scheduler: http://www.squeaksource.com/Scheduler/ (loads in pharo 1.4, 2.0 and 3.0alpha) also, you can consider to start those tasks in a separated image (using a cron task and command line) cheers, Esteban On Jul 16, 2013, at 2:16 PM, Sabine Knöfel <sabine.knoefel@gmail.com> wrote:

If you have network in the image, do web apps or the like it might be a good idea to implement HTTP handlers for the tasks and trigger them via cron on the system below. You can have the HTTP handler return information back and this way you can easily send out emails if an expectation isn't met in the image. Norbert
I will use the scheduler, thanks! Sabine -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/scheduler-for-application-tasks-tp4698922p4699049.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
