Syntax

'Declaration

Example

The following code example shows how to define a SelectionTask and define a TaskCondition object for the task using a delegate method:

SelectionTask<BusinessObject> task = null;
task = new ProcessTask<BusinessObject>("Selection Task", "notepad.exe");
task.ConditionProvider = ShouldShowTask;

private static TaskCondition ShouldShowTask(BusinessObject businessObj)
{
    return businessObj.OSVersion == "Windows Vista" ?
         TaskCondition.Default : TaskCondition.NotApplicable;
}

Remarks

Can not be instantiated or derived from directly; use derivatives of SelectionTask.

A TaskCondition object is used with a SelectionTask to define how the task pertains to the selected business object.

A business object encapsulates information and methods, which relate to business data or business functionality. The information in a business object is usually exposed as properties.
