Spring Cron scheduler “disable pattern”
<p>My application loads some cron patterns from a properties file. I'm using the <code>@Scheduled</code> annotation like this:</p>
<pre><code>@Scheduled(cron = &quot;${config.cronExpression:0 0 11,23 * * *}&quot;)
</code></pre>
<p>Now I want to disable some tasks and the easiest solution would be to enter a cron pattern which will never run.
In order to do this, I thought about using a cron expression that only executes at a specific day in the past.
But unfortunately the Spring cron expressions don't allow to add a year or a date in the past.</p>
<p>Is there any pattern that will never run?</p>
