Interface ScheduleTaskFactory<DTO extends ScheduleTaskFactory.TaskDto,T extends ScheduleTask>

Type Parameters:

DTO - persistence and transfer type, see ScheduleTaskFactory.TaskDto

T - api type, see ScheduleTask

public interface ScheduleTaskFactory<DTO extends ScheduleTaskFactory.TaskDto,T extends ScheduleTask>

Module class to hook new schedule task types into FirstSpirit. Implementations provide a data transfer object (which is also the persistent format), a ScheduleTaskFactory.createTask(de.espirit.firstspirit.access.schedule.ScheduleEntry, de.espirit.firstspirit.server.scheduler.ScheduleTaskFactory.TaskDto) schedule task}, and an executor.

Since:
