Cancelling a Scheduled Task

You can cancel a scheduled task in several ways.

To cancel the current run of a scheduled task, call

ScheduledTask

RemoveScheduledTask

. This method does not cancel subsequent runs of the

ScheduledTask

To cancel an upcoming run of a

ScheduledTask

, call

ScheduledTask.ReconfigureScheduledTask

with a new

ScheduledTaskSpec

data object containing the new specifications for the schedule.

To cancel a

ScheduledTask

that spawns a second task, create a

PropertyCollector

to obtain the reference to the

Tasks

and call its

CancelTask

method. The task must be cancellable.
