/**
 * Annotation that marks a method to be scheduled. Exactly one of the
 * {@link #cron}, {@link #fixedDelay}, or {@link #fixedRate} attributes must be
 * specified.
 *
 * <p>The annotated method must expect no arguments. It will typically have
 * a {@code void} return type; if not, the returned value will be ignored
 * when called through the scheduler.
 *
 * <p>Processing of {@code @Scheduled} annotations is performed by
 * registering a {@link ScheduledAnnotationBeanPostProcessor}. This can be
 * done manually or, more conveniently, through the {@code <task:annotation-driven/>}
 * element or @{@link EnableScheduling} annotation.
 *
 * <p>This annotation may be used as a <em>meta-annotation</em> to create custom
 * <em>composed annotations</em> with attribute overrides.
