+<section><title>Purpose</title>The scheduler example has two applications;
+one to schedule the tasks, and the other to run the scheduled tasks. The scheduler
+application launches the application that runs the scheduled tasks, when the
+tasks are due to be completed. </section>
+<section> The scheduler application is the client of the scheduler server.
+It connects and registers itself with the scheduler server using the <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-C4EEE075-3B47-3964-AFCC-0CDF09DEDA0F"><apiname>RScheduler::Connect()</apiname></xref> and
+ <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-C19048C5-DC9F-3B8A-B4AD-02C0D943B7AC"><apiname>RScheduler::Register()</apiname></xref> methods, respectively. While registering
+itself with the scheduler server, the scheduler application provides the name
+of the application that runs the scheduled tasks, along with its complete
+path and its priority relative to other clients. </section>
+<section>When a session with the scheduler server is started, the scheduler
+creates a persistent time-based schedule using the <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-2DBDC4BB-3E58-30E4-88A4-024F8A8514A4"><apiname>RScheduler::CreatePersistentSchedule()</apiname></xref> method.
+Then, it adds a task to the persistent schedule using the <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-F86AED90-2992-380B-B9FD-2763EA041FE7"><apiname>RScheduler::ScheduleTask()</apiname></xref>method. </section>
+<section> The scheduler application also creates a transient time-based schedule
+using the <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-F86AED90-2992-380B-B9FD-2763EA041FE7"><apiname>RScheduler::ScheduleTask()</apiname></xref> method. The application
+passes the schedule information to the method using the <xref href="GUID-EA5C4B46-AC42-3D0F-8C48-E182D0D30A12.dita"><apiname>TScheduleEntryInfo2</apiname></xref>and<xref href="GUID-ACEB1944-5B06-32AD-9D55-3F02720F261E.dita"><apiname>TTaskInfo</apiname></xref>
+ objects. It also edits the transient schedule entry to change its validity
+using <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-50B287A9-F62F-3C49-AD22-2760C96846EA"><apiname>RScheduler::EditSchedule()</apiname></xref></section>
+<section>The scheduler application launches the executor application, which
+runs the scheduled tasks when they are due to be completed. The executor
+checks whether it has the necessary capability to run the scheduled tasks
+using the <xref href="GUID-049FF2D7-8444-3E87-BF2F-DD0EA9B10ED0.dita#GUID-049FF2D7-8444-3E87-BF2F-DD0EA9B10ED0/GUID-97B29D4C-FEA0-3103-BA54-31B1EA8C827C"><apiname>CScheduledTask::SecurityInfo()</apiname></xref> method. The executor
+application also checks whether the Secure ID (SID) is the same as that of
+the task requester, to be able to run the tasks. If these security checks
+pass, the executor prints the details of the scheduled task to the console. </section>
+<section>Finally, the scheduled tasks are deleted using the <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-B4CECD92-82C6-3CEC-8DA6-E4D1580BEC00"><apiname>RScheduler::DeleteSchedule()</apiname></xref>
+ and <xref href="GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1.dita#GUID-6E138B87-ED51-3C72-9075-8D7F887FA7B1/GUID-BE934053-79EA-3101-899D-18BC91359BB7"><apiname>RScheduler::DeleteTask()</apiname></xref>methods, respectively. </section>
+<section><title>Class summary </title><p>The example shows the following APIs: </p><ul>

+<li><p>CScheduledTask</p></li>

+<section><title>Building and configuring </title><p>To build the example:</p><ul>
+<li><p>You can build the example from the Carbide.c++ IDE or the command line.</p><p>If
+you use an IDE, import the bld.inf file of the example into your IDE, and
+use the build command of the IDE. If you use the command line, open a command
+prompt, and set the current directory to examples\SysLibs\TaskSchedulerExample
+folder which contains the bld.inf file. You can then build the example with
+the following build commands:</p> <p><codeblock xml:space="preserve">bldmake bldfiles
+abld build winsw (For WINSCW platforms)
+abld build ARMV5 (For hardware)</codeblock></p><p>for running the obtained
+.exe, go to epoc32\release\winscw\udeb\ (or urel\), launch taskexecutor.exe
+:</p><p><codeblock xml:space="preserve">taskexecutor.exe</codeblock></p></li>
