Working with Actual Properties
The static class Tsk exposes a number of properties for determining a task’s actual properties:
- ActualCost: a task’s actual cost (double).
- ActualOvertimeCost: a task’s actual overtime cost (double).
- ActualOvertimeWork: the actual overtime worked on a task (TimeSpan).
- ActualDuration: a task’s actual duration (TimeSpan).
- ActualStart: the date and time that a task actually started (DateTime).
- ActualFinish: the date and time that a task actually finished (DateTime).
- ACWP: the actual cost of the work performed on a task (double).
The ChildTasksCollector class collects all the child tasks from a given RootTask when used by TaskUtils.
