Q:

Google App Engine Cron Job

I have created a cron.xml file and a servlet which describes the job.
Now when i compile and login as an admin, local development dashboard doesn't show Cron Jobs link.

A:

Local development server does not have the Cron Jobs link neither does it execute cron jobs. The actual appengine will show cron jobs and will execute them.
You can manually execute cron jobs on local server by visiting their urls. e.g.
http://localhost:8888/FindReservedBooksTask.
BTW the cron.xml file should be in the war/WEB-INF directory.
