Class Task

java.lang.Object

schedule.ScheduledItem

schedule.Task

abstract class Task
extends ScheduledItem

Like an Appointment, a Task adds a number of components to a generic ScheduledItem. A Task differs from an Appointment as follows: (1) Appointments have StartTime, Duration, and Location; Tasks do not. (2) For Appointments, the priority is either 'Must' or 'Optional'; for Tasks, priority is a positive integer indicating the relative priority of a task compared to other tasks. (3) For appointments, reminders can be set to occur at hour or minute granularity; for tasks, the smallest granularity of reminder is a day. (4) Tasks have a completedFlag, and completionDate components; appointments do not.

The completedFlag is true if a Task has been completed, false if not. The system does not enforce any specific constraints on the setting of a task's CompletedFlag. That is, the user may set or clear it at will. Hence the meaning of the completedFlag is up to user interpretation, particularly for recurring tasks.

The completionDate is the date on which as task is completed. The system does not enforce any specific constraints on the setting of a task's completionDate (other than it being a legal Date value). As with the completedFlag, the meaning of the completionDate value is up to user interpretation, particularly for recurring tasks.

This object is derived from Section 2.4.2 of the Milestone 6 requirements, in particular Figure 47.
