Example shows deprecated ScheduledTimerTask [SPR-10050]

[spring-projects-issues]

Per Holmberg opened SPR-10050 and commented

Spring 3.1 reference manual, section 26.7.1 shows an example of ScheduledTimerTask, but if you read the javadoc of ScheduledTimerTask, this class is deprecated:

as of Spring 3.0, in favor of the scheduling.concurrent package which is based on Java 5's java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService

Documentation should be updated with an up-to-date example?
