This is the custom metadata processor for [Scheduled] metadata.

USAGE:

[Scheduled("5000")]

[Scheduled(delay="5000")]

[Scheduled(delay="5000", repeatCount="5")]

Use the TimerManagementEvent to stop or reset the timer for a given function name.

USAGE:

var tmEvent:TimerManagementEvent = new TimerManagementEvent(TimerManagementEvent.STOP_TIMER,"exampleOne");
dispatchEvent(tmEvent);

var tmEvent:TimerManagementEvent = new TimerManagementEvent(TimerManagementEvent.RESET_TIMER,"exampleOne");
dispatchEvent(tmEvent);

Changed by TJ Downes (12/14/2010):
Modified for Swiz 1.0. TimerManagementEvent used to extend EventChainStep, which was incompatible with Swiz 1.0

Also added capability to change schedules at runtime Before doing this, you must name your processor in your configuration: 

<swiz:customProcessors>
    <processors:ScheduledProcessor id="schedules" xmlns:processors="org.swizframework.processors.*"/>
</swiz:customProcessors>


example showing how to change schedule at runtime:

var interval:Number = 2 //minutes

var app:MyApp = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication as MyApp;

app.schedules.timers['NameOfFunctionUsedForSchedule'].tag.delay = interval*60*1000;

var event:TimerManagementEvent = new TimerManagementEvent(TimerManagementEvent.RESTART_TIMER, 'NameOfFunctionUsedForSchedule');

swizdispatcher.dispatchEvent(event);
