Remarks

Derive from the Adapter class to adapt logic for a particular item. For example, moving an element in a panel uses the same task, but the implementation of the task differs depending on what panel type the element is in. The drag task for the element queries its parent panel for an adapter that can perform the move operation.

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.
