TimerTask Execution

[palmari sivasubramanian]

Hi All,

I have one timer task execution method. I am getting last scheduled Execution Time using this scheduledExecutionTime(). If my application crashes by any chance, Can i able to get this last scheduled Execution Time? Please give me some idea regarding this.
private FetchTask() {
Timer timer = new Timer();
TimerTask task = new TimerTask() {
public void run() {
time = scheduledExecutionTime();
getData();
}
};

timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, 0, 3000);
}

I am calling this getData method for each timer task.
If the application gone down, i need to get the last scheduled time and get the data.
Please help me regarding this.

Thanks,
Palmari

If the application crashes, anything that you didn't write to an external store, like a database or a file, is gone. So I'm guessing the short answer to your question is "no".

Let's dig a little deeper into what you're doing. If the application crashes, what would you like to have happen when you restart it?
