Richard Frovarp updated DROIDS-78: ---------------------------------- Attachment: abortable-task.diff Adds abort option to tasks. Updated TaskMasters to support the new option. abort() only prevents the execution of a task, it does not stop an already executing task. > Be able to abort a task > ----------------------- > > Key: DROIDS-78 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-78 > Project: Droids > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: core > Affects Versions: 0.01 > Reporter: Richard Frovarp > Priority: Minor > Attachments: abortable-task.diff > > > It would be handy to be able to abort a task. I imagine it being used in > conjunction with a WorkMonitor. A dev could perform a test in beforeExecute > and abort running the task if something is found. I would like to abort > downloading and processing pdf's, doc's and similar type files if they > haven't changed since the last crawl. I'll try to work up a patch over the > next week. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
