Managed Object Description
TaskHistoryCollector provides a mechanism for retrieving historical data and updates when the server appends new tasks.Properties
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
latestPage* | TaskInfo[] |
The items in the 'viewable latest page'. As new tasks that match the
collector's TaskFilterSpec are created, they are added to this
page, and the oldest tasks are removed from the collector to keep the
size of the page to that allowed by
SetCollectorPageSize.
The "oldest task" is the one with the oldest creation time. The
tasks in the returned page are unordered.
