DocumentTools[CreateTask] - Create a task from a worksheet and store in an hdb
Calling Sequence
CreateTask(content, task=t, hdb=h)
Parameters
content
-
{string, XML tree} ; string or XML tree structure containing a valid XML description of a task template
t
string ; name of the task
h
string ; (optional) path to the hdb file in which to store the task (default: your default tasks.hdb file)
Description
The CreateTask function creates a task from worksheet content and stores it in an hdb file.
The task content should be the XML for a complete worksheet. This can be obtained, for example, with the command FileTools[Text][ReadFile]( "worksheetname.mw" ), where "worksheetname.mw" is the path to a stored Maple worksheet.
The h option, which specifies the path to the hdb file in which to store the task, can be fully qualified or relative to currentdir.
For information regarding the specification of file and path names, see filename and backslash.
Compatibility
The DocumentTools[CreateTask] command was introduced in Maple 16.
For more information on Maple 16 changes, see Updates in Maple 16.
