How can I invoke oxwall cron for my plugin.

I created a cron.php file in the plugin folder and added some code by taking other plugins as reference.
Is there anything else to do for the plugin specific cron to work ?

When I involve run() method, cron is working.
I want to schedule the plugin cron based on the time/hour provided by the user. How can I do this?
EX: Daily or Weekly or Monthly based on Day and Time provided by user.

You can easily specify the period of your cronjob using parameter in `addJob` method. Period should be specified in minutes. Examples:
// once a day
$this->addJob('checkPluginUpdates', 60 * 24);
// every minute
$this->addJob('deleteExpiredOnlineUserProcess', 1);

How about the following cases:
in a particular day of a month(2nd day of every month at 6 PM)
in a particular day of a week(Tuesday 8 PM every week)
in a particular day of a month(2nd day of every month at 6 PM)
in a particular day of a week(Tuesday 8 PM every week)
