Remarks

The task add-in calls this method to retrieve a data card variable value that is set by the user on the task details page on the client computer. To save and retrieve the variable, the add-in calls IEdmTaskProperties::SetVar and this method, respectively, during the processing of the EdmCmdType.EdmCmd_TaskSetup hook. 

These data card variable values can also be retrieved when the task is executed on the server by calling IEdmTaskInstance::GetVar

Card variables accessible by this method must be created using the administration tool card editor and are not related to the user-defined variables accessed by IEdmTaskProperties::GetValEx and IEdmTaskProperties::SetValEx.

Return codes:

  • S_OK: The method successfully executed.
