Spring methodInvokingTimer, dont show the property

Question

Hi,

I have imported the package org.spring.schedule.timer2.5.6A. using eclipse and created the following beans. but my problem is i, dont see / cant set any property values for the bean methodInvokingTASK (last one), where I should have.

property - targetObject

property - targetMethod

I dont know what is wrong, am I missing any import or doing anything silly!!!

<bean id = "scheduledTASK" class ="org.springframework.scheduling.timer.ScheduledTimerTask">
 <property name="delay" value="1000" />
 <property name="period" value="6000"/>
 <property name="timerTask" ref="methodInvokingTASK" />
</bean>


<bean id="timerFactory" class="org.springframework.scheduling.timer.TimerFactoryBean">
 <property name="scheduledTimerTasks">
  <list>
   <ref local="scheduledTASK"/>
  </list>
 </property>
</bean>

    <bean id="methodInvokingTASK" class="org.springframework.scheduling.timer.MethodInvokingTimerTaskFactoryBean">

   </bean>
