Hi There,
I am working on custom extension using SQL Data Source, and I am using Custom Extensions Creator to evaluate the cron format expression for the Schedule. However, while working there I found two issues, one being expression evaluation do not match with the recommended testing expression using javainuse.com/cron, and another being dynatrace not supporting the expression when field used both "value list separator" and "range of values", whereas recommended testing expression website allows it.
In case one, if expression used is "5 8-20 ? 1-5".
Dynatrace evaluates help text states that At 5 minutes past the hour, between 08:00 AM and 08:59 PM, Monday through Friday.
Online Cron Expression Generator states that At 5 minute every hour between 8 and 20 every day between Sunday and Thursday.
In case two, expression used is "5 0,4-23 ? 1-5".
Dynatrace evaluates help text states that Must be a valid quartz cron format without seconds, example 0/5 14 * * ?
Online Cron Expression Generator states that At 5 minute at hour 0 and every hour between 8 and 20 every day between Sunday and Thursday.
MinDynatrace version checked against 1.307.0 and 1.312.0.
As per the note, I added first field with 0 for seconds in the javainuse.com/cron.
Kindly recommend what to use for last field "1-5" for Monday through Friday, and field with multiple combination of valid special characters ( , - ).
Kind regards,
Darshan Doshi
