Package jenkins.util

Class Timer

java.lang.Object

jenkins.util.Timer

public class Timer
extends Object

Holds the ScheduledExecutorService for running all background tasks in Jenkins. This ExecutorService will create additional threads to execute due (enabled) tasks. Provides a minimal abstraction for locating the ScheduledExecutorService so that we can modify it's behavior going forward. For instance, to add manageability/monitoring. This is not an @Extension because it must be available before any extensions are loaded. Plugins should probably use one of the following as they provide higher level abstractions: AperiodicWork, PeriodicWork, AsyncAperiodicWork, AsyncPeriodicWork.
