Spring @Scheduled cron details from property file - Exception

Question

I was trying to define the cron details in my spring @Scheduled method

@Service
@PropertySource(\"classpath:application.properties\")
public class CacheRefre         


        

Answer 1

Adding the below to my ApplicationContext resolved the issue..

@Bean
public static PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer propertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer() {
       return new PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer();
    }

Answer 2

factoryBean.setCronExpression("0 0/1 * 1/1 * ? *"); 

you have to set Cron Expresssion bcz in BeanFactory Class the setCronExpression is mandatory
