Constructor Detail
CompositeTask()Constructor
public function CompositeTask(tasksOrFunctions:Array = null, executeTaskInParallel:Boolean = true, taskIdentifier:String = null)

Constructor

Parameters
tasksOrFunctions:Array (default = null) — Set of Tasks and/or functions to be executed
 
executeTaskInParallel:Boolean (default = true) — When TRUE, execute all tasks and report if all succeed (COMPLETE) or not (ERROR) When FALSE, execute tasks in order. Do not execute subsequent tasks if one fails.
 
taskIdentifier:String (default = null)

Throws
Error — if tasksOrFunctions Array contains object that is not a Task or a Function
Method Detail
addTask()method
public function addTask(task:ITask):void

Adds another task to the internal set that this class will execute. Additional tasks may be safely at any time (including while the CompositeTask is executing). Tasks are added to the end, so in serial tasks, tasks added later will not be run if an earlier one fails.

Parameters

task:ITask
