Job Layer

The Job Layer models the requirement to schedule and execute backup jobs.

Interface

The project org.backmeup.job contains the interface JobManager with one operation to queue a new backup job. An implementation has to execute all jobs automatically which have been placed within this queue.

Implementation

The project org.backmeup.job.impl contains a simple in-memory thread based solution. Whenever a backup job will be created, it will be added to an List and a another thread will read all jobs from this List executing one after another. This implementation will be replaced by a more robust one.
