Description Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2007-05-17 21:31:52 EDT 
From bug 187433

For some reason there is no way to get actual container for an arbitrary task. So, I used a hack to get query that produced given task (see TaskWorkingSetFilter.select() method).

taskList.getQueryForHandle(((ITask) element).getHandleIdentifier());

That obviously don't cover case when task came from the local category container. So, we need an API to efficiently address that.

We have added API for getParentContainer() that returns a list.  Currently that list only contains the parent category, but should be extended to return parent queries as well.
Comment 2 Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2007-06-25 10:45:22 EDT 
How about retaining parent if task moved into archive?
