It's also used when the running Group is stopped. \value StopOnError Default. Corresponds to the stopOnError global element. If any child task finishes with an error, the group stops and finishes with an error. If all child tasks finished with success, the group finishes with success. If a group is empty, it finishes with success. \value ContinueOnError Corresponds to the continueOnError global element. Similar to stopOnError, but in case any child finishes with an error, the execution continues until all tasks finish, and the group reports an error afterwards, even when some other tasks in the group finished with success. If all child tasks finish successfully, the group finishes with success. If a group is empty, it finishes with success. \value StopOnDone Corresponds to the stopOnDone global element. If any child task finishes with success, the group stops and finishes with success. If all child tasks finished with an error, the group finishes with an error. If a group is empty, it finishes with an error. \value ContinueOnDone Corresponds to the continueOnDone global element. Similar to stopOnDone, but in case any child finishes successfully, the execution continues until all tasks finish, and the group reports success afterwards, even when some other tasks in the group finished with an error. If all child tasks finish with an error, the group finishes with an error. If a group is empty, it finishes with an error. \value StopOnFinished Corresponds to the stopOnFinished global element. The group starts as many tasks as it can. When any task finishes, the group stops and reports the task's result. Useful only in parallel mode. In sequential mode, only the first task is started, and when finished, the group finishes too, so the other tasks are always skipped. If a group is empty, it finishes with an error. \value FinishAllAndDone Corresponds to the finishAllAndDone global element. The group executes all tasks and ignores their return results. When all tasks finished, the group finishes with success. If a group is empty, it finishes with success. \value FinishAllAndError Corresponds to the finishAllAndError global element. The group executes all tasks and ignores their return results. When all tasks finished, the group finishes with an error. If a group is empty, it finishes with an error. Whenever a child task's result causes the Group to stop, i.e. in case of StopOnError, StopOnDone, or StopOnFinished policies, the Group stops the other running child tasks (if any - for example in parallel mode), and skips executing tasks it has not started yet (for example, in the sequential mode - those, that are placed after the failed task). Both stopping and skipping child tasks may happen when parallelLimit is used. The table below summarizes the differences between various workflow policies: \table \header \li \l WorkflowPolicy \li Executes all child tasks \li Result \li Result when the group is empty \row \li StopOnError \li Stops when any child task finished with an error and reports an error \li An error when at least one child task failed, success otherwise \li Success \row \li ContinueOnError \li Yes \li An error when at least one child task failed, success otherwise \li Success \row \li StopOnDone \li Stops when any child task finished with success and reports success \li Success when at least one child task succeeded, an error otherwise \li An error \row \li ContinueOnDone \li Yes \li Success when at least one child task succeeded, an error otherwise \li An error \row \li StopOnFinished \li Stops when any child task finished and reports child task's result \li Success or an error, depending on the finished child task's result \li An error \row \li FinishAllAndDone \li Yes \li Success \li Success \row \li FinishAllAndError \li Yes \li An error \li An error \endtable If a child of a group is also a group, the child group runs its tasks according to its own workflow policy. When a parent group stops the running child group because of parent group's workflow policy, i.e. when the StopOnError, StopOnDone, or StopOnFinished policy was used for the parent, the child group's result is reported according to the \b Result column and to the \b {child group's workflow policy} row in the table above. */ /*! \variable sequential A convenient global group's element describing the sequential execution mode. This is the default execution mode of the Group element. When a Group has no execution mode, it runs in the sequential mode. All the direct child tasks of a group are started in a chain, so that when one task finishes, the next one starts.

When a group's or task's setup handler returns void, it's assumed that it returned Continue. \value StopWithDone The group's or task's execution stops immediately with success. When returned from the group's setup handler, all child tasks are skipped, and the group's onGroupDone handler is invoked (if provided). When returned from the task's setup handler, the task isn't started, its done handler isn't invoked, and the task reports success to its parent. \value StopWithError The group's or task's execution stops immediately with an error.

This means the fully parallel execution, and the \l parallel element may be used instead. \li When \a limit equals to 1, it means that only one child task may run at the time. This means the sequential execution, and the \l sequential element may be used instead. In this case child tasks run in chain, so the next child task starts after the previous child task has finished. \li When other positive number is passed as \a limit, the group's child tasks run in parallel, but with a limited number of tasks running simultanously. The \e limit defines the maximum number of tasks running in parallel in a group. When the group is started, the first batch of tasks is started (the number of tasks in a batch equals to the passed \a limit, at most), while the others are kept waiting. When any running task finishes, the group starts the next remaining one, so that the \e limit of simultaneously running tasks inside a group isn't exceeded.

The Tasking namespace depends on Qt only, and doesn't depend on any \QC specific code. */ /*! \class Tasking::TaskTree \inheaderfile solutions/tasking/tasktree.h \inmodule QtCreator \ingroup mainclasses \brief The TaskTree class runs an async task tree structure defined in a declarative way. Use the Tasking namespace to build extensible, declarative task tree structures that contain possibly asynchronous tasks, such as Process, FileTransfer, or Async. TaskTree structures enable you to create a sophisticated mixture of a parallel or sequential flow of tasks in the form of a tree and to run it any time later. \section1 Root Element and Tasks The TaskTree has a mandatory Group root element, which may contain any number of tasks of various types, such as ProcessTask, FileTransferTask, or AsyncTask: \code using namespace Tasking; const Group root { ProcessTask(...), AsyncTask(...), FileTransferTask(...) }; TaskTree *taskTree = new TaskTree(root); connect(taskTree, &TaskTree::done, ...); // a successfully finished handler connect(taskTree, &TaskTree::errorOccurred, ...); // an erroneously finished handler taskTree->start(); \endcode The task tree above has a top level element of the Group type that contains tasks of the type ProcessTask, FileTransferTask, and AsyncTask. After taskTree->start() is called, the tasks are run in a chain, starting with ProcessTask. When the ProcessTask finishes successfully, the AsyncTask task is started. Finally, when the asynchronous task finishes successfully, the FileTransferTask task is started. When the last running task finishes with success, the task tree is considered to have run successfully and the TaskTree::done() signal is emitted. When a task finishes with an error, the execution of the task tree is stopped and the remaining tasks are skipped. The task tree finishes with an error and sends the TaskTree::errorOccurred() signal. \section1 Groups The parent of the Group sees it as a single task. Like other tasks, the group can be started and it can finish with success or an error. The Group elements can be nested to create a tree structure: \code const Group root { Group { parallel, ProcessTask(...), AsyncTask(...) }, FileTransferTask(...) }; \endcode The example above differs from the first example in that the root element has a subgroup that contains the ProcessTask and AsyncTask. The subgroup is a sibling element of the FileTransferTask in the root. The subgroup contains an additional \e parallel element that instructs its Group to execute its tasks in parallel. So, when the tree above is started, the ProcessTask and AsyncTask start immediately and run in parallel. Since the root group doesn't contain a \e parallel element, its direct child tasks are run in sequence. Thus, the FileTransferTask starts when the whole subgroup finishes. The group is considered as finished when all its tasks have finished. The order in which the tasks finish is not relevant. So, depending on which task lasts longer (ProcessTask or AsyncTask), the following scenarios can take place: \table \header \li Scenario 1 \li Scenario 2 \row \li Root Group starts \li Root Group starts \row \li Sub Group starts \li Sub Group starts \row \li ProcessTask starts \li ProcessTask starts \row \li AsyncTask starts \li AsyncTask starts \row \li ... \li ... \row \li \b {ProcessTask finishes} \li \b {AsyncTask finishes} \row \li ... \li ... \row \li \b {AsyncTask finishes} \li \b {ProcessTask finishes} \row \li Sub Group finishes \li Sub Group finishes \row \li FileTransferTask starts \li FileTransferTask starts \row \li ... \li ... \row \li FileTransferTask finishes \li FileTransferTask finishes \row \li Root Group finishes \li Root Group finishes \endtable The differences between the scenarios are marked with bold. Three dots mean that an unspecified amount of time passes between previous and next events (a task or tasks continue to run). No dots between events means that they occur synchronously. The presented scenarios assume that all tasks run successfully. If a task fails during execution, the task tree finishes with an error. In particular, when ProcessTask finishes with an error while AsyncTask is still being executed, the AsyncTask is automatically stopped, the subgroup finishes with an error, the FileTransferTask is skipped, and the tree finishes with an error. \section1 Task Types Each task type is associated with its corresponding task class that executes the task. For example, a ProcessTask inside a task tree is associated with the Process class that executes the process. The associated objects are automatically created, started, and destructed exclusively by the task tree at the appropriate time. If a root group consists of five sequential ProcessTask tasks, and the task tree executes the group, it creates an instance of Process for the first ProcessTask and starts it. If the Process instance finishes successfully, the task tree destructs it and creates a new Process instance for the second ProcessTask, and so on. If the first task finishes with an error, the task tree stops creating Process instances, and the root group finishes with an error. The following table shows examples of task types and their corresponding task classes: \table \header \li Task Type (Tasking Namespace) \li Associated Task Class \li Brief Description \row \li ProcessTask \li Utils::Process \li Starts processes. \row \li AsyncTask \li Utils::Async \li Starts asynchronous tasks; run in separate thread. \row \li TaskTreeTask \li Utils::TaskTree \li Starts a nested task tree. \row \li FileTransferTask \li ProjectExplorer::FileTransfer \li Starts file transfer between different devices. \endtable \section1 Task Handlers Use Task handlers to set up a task for execution and to enable reading the output data from the task when it finishes with success or an error. \section2 Task's Start Handler When a corresponding task class object is created and before it's started, the task tree invokes a mandatory user-provided setup handler. The setup handler should always take a \e reference to the associated task class object: \code const auto onSetup = [](Process &process) { process.setCommand({"sleep", {"3"}}); }; const Group root { ProcessTask(onSetup) }; \endcode You can modify the passed Process in the setup handler, so that the task tree can start the process according to your configuration. You should not call \e {process.start();} in the setup handler, as the task tree calls it when needed. The setup handler is optional. When used, it must be the first argument of the task's constructor. Optionally, the setup handler may return a TaskAction. The returned TaskAction influences the further start behavior of a given task. The possible values are: \table \header \li TaskAction Value \li Brief Description \row \li Continue \li The task will be started normally. This is the default behavior when the setup handler doesn't return TaskAction (that is, its return type is void). \row \li StopWithDone \li The task won't be started and it will report success to its parent. \row \li StopWithError \li The task won't be started and it will report an error to its parent. \endtable This is useful for running a task only when a condition is met and the data needed to evaluate this condition is not known until previously started tasks finish. In this way, the setup handler dynamically decides whether to start the corresponding task normally or skip it and report success or an error. For more information about inter-task data exchange, see \l Storage. \section2 Task's Done and Error Handlers When a running task finishes, the task tree invokes an optionally provided done or error handler. Both handlers should always take a \e {const reference} to the associated task class object: \code const auto onSetup = [](Process &process) { process.setCommand({"sleep", {"3"}}); }; const auto onDone = [](const Process &process) { qDebug() << "Success" << process.cleanedStdOut(); }; const auto onError = [](const Process &process) { qDebug() << "Failure" << process.cleanedStdErr(); }; const Group root { ProcessTask(onSetup, onDone, onError) }; \endcode The done and error handlers may collect output data from Process, and store it for further processing or perform additional actions. The done handler is optional. When used, it must be the second argument of the task's constructor. The error handler is also optional. When used, it must always be the third argument. You can omit the handlers or substitute the ones that you do not need with curly braces ({}). \note If the task setup handler returns StopWithDone or StopWithError, neither the done nor error handler is invoked. \section1 Group Handlers Similarly to task handlers, group handlers enable you to set up a group to execute and to apply more actions when the whole group finishes with success or an error. \section2 Group's Start Handler The task tree invokes the group start handler before it starts the child tasks. The group handler doesn't take any arguments: \code const auto onSetup = [] { qDebug() << "Entering the group"; }; const Group root { onGroupSetup(onSetup), ProcessTask(...) }; \endcode The group setup handler is optional. To define a group setup handler, add an onGroupSetup element to a group. The argument of onGroupSetup is a user handler. If you add more than one onGroupSetup element to a group, an assert is triggered at runtime that includes an error message. Like the task's start handler, the group start handler may return TaskAction. The returned TaskAction value affects the start behavior of the whole group. If you do not specify a group start handler or its return type is void, the default group's action is TaskAction::Continue, so that all tasks are started normally. Otherwise, when the start handler returns TaskAction::StopWithDone or TaskAction::StopWithError, the tasks are not started (they are skipped) and the group itself reports success or failure, depending on the returned value, respectively. \code const Group root { onGroupSetup([] { qDebug() << "Root setup"; }), Group { onGroupSetup([] { qDebug() << "Group 1 setup"; return TaskAction::Continue; }), ProcessTask(...) // Process 1 }, Group { onGroupSetup([] { qDebug() << "Group 2 setup"; return TaskAction::StopWithDone; }), ProcessTask(...) // Process 2 }, Group { onGroupSetup([] { qDebug() << "Group 3 setup"; return TaskAction::StopWithError; }), ProcessTask(...) // Process 3 }, ProcessTask(...) // Process 4 }; \endcode In the above example, all subgroups of a root group define their setup handlers. The following scenario assumes that all started processes finish with success: \table \header \li Scenario \li Comment \row \li Root Group starts \li Doesn't return TaskAction, so its tasks are executed. \row \li Group 1 starts \li Returns Continue, so its tasks are executed. \row \li Process 1 starts \li \row \li ... \li ... \row \li Process 1 finishes (success) \li \row \li Group 1 finishes (success) \li \row \li Group 2 starts \li Returns StopWithDone, so Process 2 is skipped and Group 2 reports success. \row \li Group 2 finishes (success) \li \row \li Group 3 starts \li Returns StopWithError, so Process 3 is skipped and Group 3 reports an error. \row \li Group 3 finishes (error) \li \row \li Root Group finishes (error) \li Group 3, which is a direct child of the root group, finished with an error, so the root group stops executing, skips Process 4, which has not started yet, and reports an error. \endtable \section2 Groups's Done and Error Handlers A Group's done or error handler is executed after the successful or failed execution of its tasks, respectively. The final value reported by the group depends on its \l {Workflow Policy}. The handlers can apply other necessary actions. The done and error handlers are defined inside the onGroupDone and onGroupError elements of a group, respectively. They do not take arguments: \code const Group root { onGroupSetup([] { qDebug() << "Root setup"; }), ProcessTask(...), onGroupDone([] { qDebug() << "Root finished with success"; }), onGroupError([] { qDebug() << "Root finished with error"; }) }; \endcode The group done and error handlers are optional. If you add more than one onGroupDone or onGroupError each to a group, an assert is triggered at runtime that includes an error message. \note Even if the group setup handler returns StopWithDone or StopWithError, one of the group's done or error handlers is invoked. This behavior differs from that of task handlers and might change in the future. \section1 Other Group Elements A group can contain other elements that describe the processing flow, such as the execution mode or workflow policy. It can also contain storage elements that are responsible for collecting and sharing custom common data gathered during group execution. \section2 Execution Mode The execution mode element in a Group specifies how the direct child tasks of the Group are started. The most common execution modes are \l sequential and \l parallel. It's also possible to specify the limit of tasks running in parallel by using the parallelLimit function. In all execution modes, a group starts tasks in the oder in which they appear. If a child of a group is also a group, the child group runs its tasks according to its own execution mode. \section2 Workflow Policy The workflow policy element in a Group specifies how the group should behave when any of its \e direct child's tasks finish. For a detailed description of possible policies, refer to WorkflowPolicy. If a child of a group is also a group, the child group runs its tasks according to its own workflow policy. \section2 Storage Use the Storage element to exchange information between tasks. Especially, in the sequential execution mode, when a task needs data from another, already finished task, before it can start. For example, a task tree that copies data by reading it from a source and writing it to a destination might look as follows: \code static QByteArray load(const QString &fileName) { ... } static void save(const QString &fileName, const QByteArray &array) { ... } static GroupItem copyRecipe(const QString &source, const QString &destination) { struct CopyStorage { // [1] custom inter-task struct QByteArray content; // [2] custom inter-task data }; // [3] instance of custom inter-task struct manageable by task tree const TreeStorage storage; const auto onLoaderSetup = [source](Async &async) { async.setConcurrentCallData(&load, source); }; // [4] runtime: task tree activates the instance from [7] before invoking handler const auto onLoaderDone = [storage](const Async &async) { storage->content = async.result(); // [5] loader stores the result in storage }; // [4] runtime: task tree activates the instance from [7] before invoking handler const auto onSaverSetup = [storage, destination](Async &async) { const QByteArray content = storage->content; // [6] saver takes data from storage async.setConcurrentCallData(&save, destination, content); }; const auto onSaverDone = [](const Async &async) { qDebug() << "Save done successfully"; }; const Group root { // [7] runtime: task tree creates an instance of CopyStorage when root is entered Storage(storage), AsyncTask(onLoaderSetup, onLoaderDone), AsyncTask(onSaverSetup, onSaverDone) }; return root; } const QString source = ...; const QString destination = ...; TaskTree taskTree(copyRecipe(source, destination)); connect(&taskTree, &TaskTree::done, &taskTree, [] { qDebug() << "The copying finished successfully."; }); tasktree.start(); \endcode In the example above, the inter-task data consists of a QByteArray content variable [2] enclosed in a CopyStorage custom struct [1]. If the loader finishes successfully, it stores the data in a CopyStorage::content variable [5]. The saver then uses the variable to configure the saving task [6]. To enable a task tree to manage the CopyStorage struct, an instance of TreeStorage is created [3]. If a copy of this object is inserted as group's child task [7], an instance of CopyStorage struct is created dynamically when the task tree enters this group. When the task tree leaves this group, the existing instance of CopyStorage struct is destructed as it's no longer needed. If several task trees that hold a copy of the common TreeStorage instance run simultaneously, each task tree contains its own copy of the CopyStorage struct. You can access CopyStorage from any handler in the group with a storage object. This includes all handlers of all descendant tasks of the group with a storage object. To access the custom struct in a handler, pass the copy of the TreeStorage object to the handler (for example, in a lambda capture) [4]. When the task tree invokes a handler in a subtree containing the storage [7], the task tree activates its own CopyStorage instance inside the TreeStorage object. Therefore, the CopyStorage struct may be accessed only from within the handler body. To access the currently active CopyStorage from within TreeStorage, use the TreeStorage::operator->(), TreeStorage::operator*() or TreeStorage::activeStorage() method. The following list summarizes how to employ a Storage object into the task tree: \list 1 \li Define the custom structure MyStorage with custom data [1], [2] \li Create an instance of TreeStorage storage [3] \li Pass the TreeStorage instance to handlers [4] \li Access the MyStorage instance in handlers [5], [6] \li Insert the TreeStorage instance into a group [7] \endlist \note The current implementation assumes that all running task trees containing copies of the same TreeStorage run in the same thread. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined. \section1 TaskTree TaskTree executes the tree structure of asynchronous tasks according to the recipe described by the Group root element. As TaskTree is also an asynchronous task, it can be a part of another TaskTree. To place a nested TaskTree inside another TaskTree, insert the TaskTreeTask element into other tree's Group element. TaskTree reports progress of completed tasks when running. The progress value is increased when a task finishes or is skipped or stopped. When TaskTree is finished and the TaskTree::done() or TaskTree::errorOccurred() signal is emitted, the current value of the progress equals the maximum progress value. Maximum progress equals the total number of tasks in a tree. A nested TaskTree is counted as a single task, and its child tasks are not counted in the top level tree. Groups themselves are not counted as tasks, but their tasks are counted. To set additional initial data for the running tree, modify the storage instances in a tree when it creates them by installing a storage setup handler: \code TreeStorage storage; Group root = ...; // storage placed inside root's group and inside handlers TaskTree taskTree(root); auto initStorage = [](CopyStorage *storage){ storage->content = "initial content"; }; taskTree.onStorageSetup(storage, initStorage); taskTree.start(); \endcode When the running task tree creates a CopyStorage instance, and before any handler inside a tree is called, the task tree calls the initStorage handler, to enable setting up initial data of the storage, unique to this particular run of taskTree. Similarly, to collect some additional result data from the running tree, read it from storage instances in the tree when they are about to be destroyed. To do this, install a storage done handler: \code TreeStorage storage; Group root = ...; // storage placed inside root's group and inside handlers TaskTree taskTree(root); auto collectStorage = [](CopyStorage *storage){ qDebug() << "final content" << storage->content; }; taskTree.onStorageDone(storage, collectStorage); taskTree.start(); \endcode When the running task tree is about to destroy a CopyStorage instance, the task tree calls the collectStorage handler, to enable reading the final data from the storage, unique to this particular run of taskTree. \section1 Task Adapters To extend a TaskTree with new a task type, implement a simple adapter class derived from the TaskAdapter class template. The following class is an adapter for a single shot timer, which may be considered as a new asynchronous task: \code class TimeoutTaskAdapter : public Tasking::TaskAdapter { public: TimeoutTaskAdapter() { task()->setSingleShot(true); task()->setInterval(1000); connect(task(), &QTimer::timeout, this, [this] { emit done(true); }); } void start() final { task()->start(); } }; QTC_DECLARE_CUSTOM_TASK(TimeoutTask, TimeoutTaskAdapter); \endcode You must derive the custom adapter from the TaskAdapter class template instantiated with a template parameter of the class implementing a running task. The code above uses QTimer to run the task. This class appears later as an argument to the task's handlers. The instance of this class parameter automatically becomes a member of the TaskAdapter template, and is accessible through the TaskAdapter::task() method. The constructor of TimeoutTaskAdapter initially configures the QTimer object and connects to the QTimer::timeout signal. When the signal is triggered, TimeoutTaskAdapter emits the done(true) signal to inform the task tree that the task finished successfully. If it emits done(false), the task finished with an error. The TaskAdapter::start() method starts the timer. To make QTimer accessible inside TaskTree under the \e TimeoutTask name, register it with QTC_DECLARE_CUSTOM_TASK(TimeoutTask, TimeoutTaskAdapter). TimeoutTask becomes a new task type inside Tasking namespace, using TimeoutTaskAdapter. The new task type is now registered, and you can use it in TaskTree: \code const auto onTimeoutSetup = [](QTimer &task) { task.setInterval(2000); }; const auto onTimeoutDone = [](const QTimer &task) { qDebug() << "timeout triggered"; }; const Group root { TimeoutTask(onTimeoutSetup, onTimeoutDone) }; \endcode When a task tree containing the root from the above example is started, it prints a debug message within two seconds and then finishes successfully. \note The class implementing the running task should have a default constructor, and objects of this class should be freely destructible.
