DlhSoft Project Management Framework Documentation

Project Management Framework Library contains .NET core components such as TaskManager class:

·        TaskManager component is used to manage and schedule a list of task items (TaskItem objects) provided by the developer through the Items collection.

The task item properties (TaskItem objects) are presented below:

·        Indentation: The hierarchy is based on the indentation level values of the tasks, so that a task with a lower index in the collection and having a specific indentation level will become the parent task for the tasks with a higher index in the collection and having an increased indentation level;

·        Start, Finish, CompletedFinish, IsMilestone;

·        Assignments: The assignments collection defines assignment items (AssignmentItem object) referring to external resource objects;

·        Predecessors: The predecessors collection defines predecessor items (PredecessorItem objects) referring to predecessor task items;

·        Tag: The object that represents the task item externally, usually the task name.
