Scheduler tasks and Java EE context
When a task is created using the Scheduler API create() method, the Java EE thread context of the creator is stored with the scheduled task. When the task runs, the original Java EE thread context is reapplied to the thread before calling the customer TaskInfo instance.
The scheduler service utilizes the asynchronous beans deferred start mechanism to propagate Java EE service context information to a task when it runs. The amount of service context information that is propagated is controlled by the Service Context settings on the WorkManager configuration object that schedulers reference. For example, security and internationalization service contexts can be enabled. See the Using asynchronous beans topic for details on how to configure the Application Server to propagate these service contexts.
