Stringrepresenting the type of the task. subtype- A
Stringrepresenting the subtype of the task. (Used mostly by events and exceptions to identify appropriate handlers.) priority- An

PMC *clone()- Create a copy of the task, resetting status, ID, and birthtime.
PMC *get_attr_str(STRING *name)- Gets the value of an attribute for this task.
void set_attr_str(STRING *name, PMC *value)- Sets the value of an attribute for this task.
INTVAL get_integer()- Retrieves the task ID for this task.
void set_integer_native(INTVAL value)- Sets the task ID of the task.
void set_number_native(FLOATVAL value)- Sets the birthtime of the task.
void set_string_native(STRING *value)- Sets the type of the task.
PMC *share_ro()- Set this PMC as shared.
void destroy()- Free the task's underlying struct.
void mark()- Mark any referenced strings and PMCs.
void visit(visit_info *info)- This is used by freeze/thaw to visit the contents of the task.
*infois the visit info, (see include/parrot/pmc_freeze.h).void freeze(visit_info *info)- Used to archive the task.
void thaw(visit_info *info)- Used to unarchive the task.
void thawfinish(visit_info *info)- Called after the task has been thawed.
