1922 <p>Every cronjob needs to implement the <code>wcf\system\cronjob\ICronjob</code> interface which requires the <code>execute(Cronjob $cronjob)</code> method to be implemented.
1923 This method is called by <a href="https://github.com/WoltLab/WCF/blob/master/wcfsetup/install/files/lib/system/cronjob/CronjobScheduler.class.php">wcf\system\cronjob\CronjobScheduler</a> when executing the cronjobs.</p>
1924 <p>In practice, however, you should extend the <code>AbstractCronjob</code> class and also call the <code>AbstractCronjob::execute()</code> method as it fires an event which makes cronjobs extendable by plugins (see <a href="../events/">event documentation</a>).</p>
