inet.common.task
================

.. py:module:: inet.common.task

.. autoapi-nested-parse::

   This module provides abstractions for generic tasks and their results.

   Tasks are primarily useful because they can be created, passed around and stored
   before actually being run. This separation allows running the same tasks multiple
   times.

   For example, creating an empty task and running it:

   .. code-block:: python

       t = Task()
       t.run()

   Similarly, creating a multiple tasks object containing two empty tasks and running it:

   .. code-block:: python

       mt = MultipleTasks([Task(), Task()])
       mt.run()
