The following sample code shows how you can modify the Display name of an existing scheduled task:

 

[C#]

 

using CMS.Scheduler;

 

...

 

        string taskName = "TestContentPublishing";

        string siteName = "CorporateSiteASPX";

 

        // Get task object

        TaskInfo ti = TaskInfoProvider.GetTaskInfo(taskName, siteName);

 

        // If task exists

        if (ti != null)

        {

            // Update property

            ti.TaskDisplayName += " updated";

 

            // Save to database

            TaskInfoProvider.SetTaskInfo(ti);

        }

 

The following sample code shows how you can create a new scheduled task and add it to the system:

 

[C#]

 

using System;

using System.Collections;

using CMS.Scheduler;

using CMS.CMSHelper;

 

...

 

        // Create new task object

        TaskInfo ti = new TaskInfo();

 

        // Set properties

        ti.TaskAssemblyName = "CMS.WorkflowEngine";

        ti.TaskClass = "CMS.WorkflowEngine.ContentPublisher";

        ti.TaskDisplayName = "Test content publishing";

        ti.TaskName = "TestContentPublishing";

 

        // Create interval

        TaskInterval interval = new TaskInterval();

 

        // Set interval properties

        interval.Period = SchedulingHelper.PERIOD_DAY;

        interval.StartTime = DateTime.Now;

        interval.Every = 2;

 

        // Add some days to interval

        ArrayList days = new ArrayList();

        days.Add(DayOfWeek.Monday.ToString());

        days.Add(DayOfWeek.Sunday.ToString());

        days.Add(DayOfWeek.Thursday.ToString());

 

        interval.Days = days;

 

        ti.TaskInterval = SchedulingHelper.EncodeInterval(interval);

        ti.TaskSiteID = CMSContext.CurrentSiteID;

        ti.TaskData = "<data></data>";

        ti.TaskEnabled = true;

        ti.TaskNextRunTime = SchedulingHelper.GetNextTime(ti.TaskInterval, DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now);

 

        // Save to database

        TaskInfoProvider.SetTaskInfo(ti);

 

The following sample code shows how you can delete an existing scheduled task:

 

[C#]

 

using CMS.Scheduler;

 

...

 

        string taskName = "TestContentPublishing";

        string siteName = "CorporateSiteASPX";

 

        // Get task object

        TaskInfo ti = TaskInfoProvider.GetTaskInfo(taskName, siteName);

 

        // If task exists

        if (ti != null)

        {

            // Delete from database

            TaskInfoProvider.DeleteTaskInfo(ti);

        }
