Cron type jobs in struts
Ok, This may be off topic cause the answer may not be in struts but here goes.
I have a need to run nightly jobs that inspect my data and do certain things based on what it finds.. Now i was goin to write some java classes to be invoked by cron. But I've never done this before in java and wonder if there is a better way to approach this? any thoughts?
thanks

I have heard Flux is pretty good, but do not know much beyond that...

I've had Quartz in production for a year and it is doing great. Definitely a
great scheduler.

Now I'm going to check out Quartz, but we've used jcrontab in the past.

I found a few, but still Quartz is the most popular

Yep. One of my colleagues put together a simple Quartz XML config
and Quartz PlugIn which can be downloaded from
http://demo.jgsullivan.com/quartz
and
http://demo.jgsullivan.com/struts
Also note that the Spring Framework has Quartz integration and can
easily be used to set up scheduling in the application context.
