org.springframework.scheduling.annotation (Spring Framework 4.3.30.RELEASE API)

Java 5 annotation for asynchronous method execution.

Interface Summary
Interface	Description
AsyncConfigurer	Interface to be implemented by @`Configuration` classes annotated with @`EnableAsync` that wish to customize the `Executor` instance used when processing async method invocations or the `AsyncUncaughtExceptionHandler` instance used to process exception thrown from async method with `void` return type.
SchedulingConfigurer	Optional interface to be implemented by @`Configuration` classes annotated with @`EnableScheduling`.

Class Summary
Class	Description
AbstractAsyncConfiguration	Abstract base `Configuration` class providing common structure for enabling Spring's asynchronous method execution capability.
AnnotationAsyncExecutionInterceptor	Specialization of `AsyncExecutionInterceptor` that delegates method execution to an `Executor` based on the `Async` annotation.
AsyncAnnotationAdvisor	Advisor that activates asynchronous method execution through the `Async` annotation.
AsyncAnnotationBeanPostProcessor	Bean post-processor that automatically applies asynchronous invocation behavior to any bean that carries the `Async` annotation at class or method-level by adding a corresponding `AsyncAnnotationAdvisor` to the exposed proxy (either an existing AOP proxy or a newly generated proxy that implements all of the target's interfaces).
AsyncConfigurationSelector	Selects which implementation of `AbstractAsyncConfiguration` should be used based on the value of `EnableAsync.mode()` on the importing `@Configuration` class.
AsyncConfigurerSupport	A convenience `AsyncConfigurer` that implements all methods so that the defaults are used.
AsyncResult<V>	A pass-through `Future` handle that can be used for method signatures which are declared with a `Future` return type for asynchronous execution.
ProxyAsyncConfiguration	`@Configuration` class that registers the Spring infrastructure beans necessary to enable proxy-based asynchronous method execution.
ScheduledAnnotationBeanPostProcessor	Bean post-processor that registers methods annotated with @`Scheduled` to be invoked by a `TaskScheduler` according to the "fixedRate", "fixedDelay", or "cron" expression provided via the annotation.
SchedulingConfiguration	`@Configuration` class that registers a `ScheduledAnnotationBeanPostProcessor` bean capable of processing Spring's @`Scheduled` annotation.

Annotation Types Summary
Annotation Type	Description
Async	Annotation that marks a method as a candidate for asynchronous execution.
EnableAsync	Enables Spring's asynchronous method execution capability, similar to functionality found in Spring's `<task:*>` XML namespace.
EnableScheduling	Enables Spring's scheduled task execution capability, similar to functionality found in Spring's `<task:*>` XML namespace.
Scheduled	An annotation that marks a method to be scheduled.
Schedules	Container annotation that aggregates several `Scheduled` annotations.
