HWS Tasks

Hi!

I have a situation in my hws process when I need to send one task to two
roles. Second task fires with some delay if first role does not respond in
time. How could I cancel task for first user?

I found that in some cases task became "Canceled" automaticaly. What is
condition for this?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hi Alex,

When an instance completes all Tasks for that instance that do not
have a status of Completed, Deferred, Declined or Interrupted will be
marked as cancelled.

So you may retrieve the tasks of the first user and then call
SendTaskResponse to set its status as something like Declined. There
is sample code snippet in the SDK:

HwsService.SendTaskResponse Method

tm/ frlrfmicrosoftbiztalkhwssoapservicehwsse
rviceclasssendtaskresponset
opic.asp

Thanks.
