Documents the timer_policy attribute on classes: promises (CFE-4681), which controls whether a persistent class restarts its timer when rediscovered. The default is reset on master (3.28.0); the attribute is also available on 3.24.5 and 3.27.2, where the default is absolute.

Summary
Documents the new
timer_policyattribute onclasses:promises in the promise-type reference (CFE-4681).timer_policycontrols whether a persistent class restarts its timer when rediscovered:reset— re-evaluates the promise and restarts the timer, so the class keeps persisting while the policy runs and the expression stays true.absolute— preserves the original expiry; the promise is skipped while the class is already defined.This brings the
classes:promise type to parity with theclassesbody, which has long had atimer_policyattribute.Version-specific default
The new section documents the default as
reset(master → 3.28.0) and a History note records that the attribute is also available on 3.24.5 and 3.27.2, where the default isabsolute(preserving the historical behavior).Notes
