Examples and additional notes
Related issue: TASKSNET-10722 - Fix creation of external task links
New task’s methods were added : Tsk.getExternalUid() and Tsk.setExternalUid(int). MS Project requires Unique Id of External task to be set in order to properly link tasks between projects.
The following example shows how to create cross-project task link:
Project project = new Project();
Task summary = project.getRootTask().getChildren().add("Summary Task");
Task t2 = summary.getChildren().Add("External Task");
t2.set(String.class, Tsk.EXTERNAL_TASK_PROJECT.Clone(), "ExternalProject.mpp");
t2.set(Integer.class, Tsk.EXTERNAL_ID.Clone(), 1);
t2.set(Integer.class, Tsk.EXTERNAL_UID.Clone(), 2); // External task's Unique Id should be set.
t2.set(Boolean.class, Tsk.IS_EXTERNAL_TASK.Clone(), true);
t2.set(NullableBool.class, Tsk.IS_MANUAL.Clone(), new NullableBool(false));
t2.set(Boolean.class, Tsk.IS_SUMMARY.Clone(), false);
Task t = summary.getChildren().add("Task");
TaskLink link = project.getTaskLinks().add(t2, t);
link.setCrossProject(true);
link.setLinkType(TaskLinkType.FinishToFinish);
link.setCrossProjectName("ExternalProject.mpp\\1"); // <- here external task's Id is used.
