Hi!

In my app, i’m using Rufus Sheduler to shedule some automatic tasks, my  
problem is that i want to set the frecuency of this task from an  
external VAR.  
Actually i have something like this: (simplify)

repeat = Rufus::Scheduler::PlainScheduler.start\_new # create a shedule  
process

blabla…

repeat.every “VAR” :blocking =\> true do  
blabla…  
end

repeat.join  
It’s works fine, but when i update “VAR” (i.e. 2s to 8s) , the frecuency  
does not update the value, it continues doing the task every 2s…

What it’s the way to update this value at the sheduling?

Thaks a lot!
