Running an autoscheduled task

Hi,

I am trying to create my own auto-scheduled task. I don't know how to run it. I've been searching through the source code but I can't find what I need.

I have these parts ...

MyTask extends AbstractAutoScheduledTask 

@Override

	public String getTaskId() {

		// TODO Auto-generated method stub

		log.info("getTaskId");

		

		return TASK_ID;

	}

@Override

	protected void runTask() throws TeamRepositoryException {

                       log.info("runTask");

                        //cancel it after I run it for testing

		        this.setCancelled(true);

}

and I am trying to get it scheduled from another service ...

//services needed

		IAsynchronousTaskSchedulerService asynchTaskScheduleService = getAsynchTaskSchedulerService();



MyTask myTask = new MyTask();



// schedule/start  task

			String taskId = myTask.getTaskId();

			String componentId = myTask.getComponentId();

			asynchTaskScheduleService.schedule(componentId, taskId);

I get an error that

Failed to get the component id for service ... 

I am thinking that maybe I need to register the task to get a component Id but I am not sure how. Assistance would be greatly appreciated!
