Quartz string for a schedule which includes execution minute as well

Question

I am trying to construct a quartz string for below schedule. Can some one help me in getting this done?

for every 3 minutes between 9:15 to 23:59 during Monday to Friday

Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

This can be done with SimpleTrigger (every 3 minutes). You just need to restrict the time and day with an ICalendar. Adding a DailyCalendar (09:15-23:59) and a WeeklyCalendar (Mon-Fri) will give you needed exclusions (example times would be inverted of course).

You could also achieve this with CronTrigger if you'd use DailyCalendar to help restrict the hour range.

Answer 2

I've not tred Marko's suggestions, I've already created my own mechanism to parse these string and convert it into cron expression. I will send this to quartz whenever I find time

Thanks for the help.
