Interface TimedObject


public interface TimedObject
The TimedObject interface contains a callback method that is used to deliver timer expiration notifications. It can be implemented by a stateless session bean class, a singleton session bean class, a message-driven bean class, or an enterprise bean 2.x entity bean class.

If the bean implements the TimedObject interface, the Timeout annotation, if used, can only be applied to the ejbTimeout method.

EJB 2.1
