Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-2754:
------------------------------------

We have talked about introducing a notation of {{schedule}} in the DSL so you will be able to express the time period in a fluent manner and have it support timer + cron based. So if you drop in camel-quartz the cron engine from quartz can be used etc.

This should be a general solution and not just tied to the FTP component.

> In reference to Nabble post: http://old.nabble.com/Scheduled-Polling-Consumer-on-FTP-endpoint-to28678774.html
> At the moment it is only possible to assign a timer with a fixed delay, to a FTP endpoint, whereas a scheduled cron statement cannot be assigned in such a way that all awaiting files on the FTP server are retrieved, but only one file per scheduled call.
> If Camel were to be improved in this respect, it would be possible to poll e.g. every few hours and retrieve all awaiting files on the FTP server.
