The function multiple starts immediately after add into cron about cron HOT 3 CLOSED

Excuse me, it was fixed in master, but not in gopkg.in/robfig/cron.v2.
Would you fix it in gopkg.in/robfig/cron.v2?

For me this is a downgrade of functionality. Think about I would like to update all of my jobs. I would've picked something like this:

var cronGlobal *cron.Cron

func refresh() {
	newCron := cron.New()
	// I would've started the new one first to ensure no interval gets missed
	newCron.Start()
	
	// Then I would've stopped the old one
	cronGlobal.Stop()
	
	// I could've added the jobs afterwards
	for _, job := range dbEntries {
		newCron.Add(job.Expression, job)
	}
	
	// Then I would've overwritten the global one
	cronGlobal = newCron
}

This way I could've been sure no interval gets missed while I'm setting up the new list. Because some of the items that are getting added to the new cron object are old ones from the previous cron object.

I hope it's clear what I'm talking about. Hope to find some other safe way.

I agree that it is a bug. v3 branch has this fix, and it has other fixes too. I recommend upgrading to it.
