Spring Boot - Async Processing

ADefine a ThreadPoolTaskScheduler bean and annotate the configuration class with @EnableScheduling

BDefine a ThreadPoolTaskExecutor bean and annotate the configuration class with @EnableAsync

CDefine a ThreadPoolTaskScheduler bean and annotate the configuration class with @EnableAsync

DDefine a ThreadPoolTaskExecutor bean and annotate the configuration class with @EnableScheduling

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify scheduler bean for scheduled tasks
Scheduled tasks use ThreadPoolTaskScheduler, not ThreadPoolTaskExecutor.
Step 2: Enable scheduling support
@EnableScheduling activates scheduled task processing in Spring Boot.
Final Answer:
Define a ThreadPoolTaskScheduler bean and annotate with @EnableScheduling -> Option A
Quick Check:
Scheduling = ThreadPoolTaskScheduler + @EnableScheduling [OK]

Quick Trick: Use ThreadPoolTaskScheduler with @EnableScheduling for scheduled tasks [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Using ThreadPoolTaskExecutor for scheduled tasks
Confusing @EnableAsync with @EnableScheduling
Omitting scheduler bean definition
