Hi Mkyong,
I have followed the procedure for setting up a Job Scheduler.But for Security purpose, I need to encrypt the DB password in quartz.properties.Currently I am using implementation class StdSchedulerFactory that reads configuration from properties file. Is there any way to pass encrypted Database password using DirectSchedulerFactory class or any other way to acheive the same.
Please help.Thanks.
