I saw another question about this, but there seemed to be no right answer or explanation.
I recently upgraded to Spring 4 and had some problems with the concurrency package. Forgive my ignorance, but from what I see, ScheduledTimerTaskand TimerFactoryBeancan be easily replaced by ScheduledExecutorTaskand ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean, however, I do not see anything that easily replaces MethodInvokingTimerTaskFactoryBean.
