## org.springframework.scheduling.annotation
Annotation Type Scheduled

    @Target(value={METHOD,ANNOTATION_TYPE})
    @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
    @Documented
    public @interface Scheduled

Annotation that marks a method to be scheduled. Exactly one of the `cron`, `fixedDelay`, or `fixedRate` attributes must be provided.

The annotated method must expect no arguments and have a `void` return type.

Processing of `@Scheduled` annotations is performed by registering a `ScheduledAnnotationBeanPostProcessor`. This can be done manually or, more conveniently, through the `<task:annotation-driven/>` element or @`EnableScheduling` annotation.
