'Declaration
Public MustInherit Class Trigger _
    Implements ICloneable

'Usage
Dim instance As Trigger

public abstract class Trigger : ICloneable

Remarks

A trigger that is not yet in a trigger list for a task is said to be unbound and holds no resources, that is, holds no COM interfaces. After it is added to a TriggerList object, it is bound and holds a COM interface that is released only when the trigger is removed from the list or the corresponding task is closed.

Note

For more information about triggers, see Task Triggers.

A trigger that is already bound cannot be added to a TriggerList object. To copy a trigger from one list to another, use the Clone method to create an unbound copy, and then add the copy to the new list.

To move a trigger from one list to another, use the Remove(Trigger) method to extract the trigger from the one list before adding it to the other.

A trigger is a generalization of all the concrete trigger classes, and any actual trigger object is one of those types. When included in the TriggerList object of a task, a trigger determines when a scheduled task runs.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
