Want Service to be always running
I want my service, OrderReminderBot to be always running. Is there
something special I have to do to put the thread to sleep so that I
don't eat all the system resources? What's the best way to do this,
or is there a good code example? Thanks
Patrick

The standard practice is to create a service that runs once, then set up the Job Scheduler to run the service at regular intervals. So, instead of having a sleep statement inside a loop, the service runs though to completion, and the Job Scheduler acts as the timed loop.

I was thinking I'd just launch this service automatically when I start
my instance of OfBiz, I'm not using Job Scheduler yet, but I'll use
whatever you recommend.

Are you using the Job Scheduler?
