[FIXED] CRON expression : make last hour non exclusive at minute 0

Issue

so I have a task I need to schedule, it needs to be ran every 10 minutes, from monday to friday between 10am and 8pm.

So far, I'm using this expression :

0 */10 10-19 * * mon-fri

Note : this is a Spring expression, but I believe the classic cron expression would be the same without the first 0 for the seconds. Is that Correct ?

The issue with this expression is that it runs correctly except for the 8pm, the last occurrence is 19:50 and not 20:00.

How could I fix this and make it run one more time ? Also I Believe it does, but to make sure, it will also run at 10:00 ?

Solution

So like Ralan commented, it is apaprently not possible to do this in one cron expression. The simplest solotuion is to add another expression matching the missing hour at minute 0.
