void SetValEx( 
   System.string bsValName,
   System.object oValue

Parameters

bsValName

Name of the user-defined variable for which to set a value

oValue

Value of user-defined variable

Call this method to store variable data entered by the user in the task definition setup page on the client machine. Call this method during the processing of the EdmCmdType.EdmCmd_TaskSetup hook.

To get the user-defined values from this task definition, call IEdmTaskProperties::GetValEx.

To get the user-defined values when the task is executing on the server, call IEdmTaskInstance::GetValEx during the processing of the EdmCmdType.EdmCmd_TaskRun hook.

The difference between this method and IEdmTaskProperties::SetVar is that the latter requires a pre-defined card variable in the vault, whereas this method does not.

Return codes:

• S_OK: The method successfully executed.
