Question

I need to cancel Spring timer execution or at least change the execution frequency based on some conditions. Was using both org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.Simpl

Answer 1

This is by far not the best solution but if you can't come up with anything else you could always use a boolean that would be checked each time the event is fired and if the boolean is false the run method of the timertask should immediately terminate.
