java.lang.Object
- com.google.appengine.api.taskqueue.TaskOptions

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable
```
public final class TaskOptions
extends Object
implements Serializable
```
Contains various options for a task following the builder pattern. Calls to TaskOptions methods may be chained to specify multiple options in the one TaskOptions object.
taskOptions can have either TaskOptions.Method PULL or a PUSH-related method, e.g. POST, GET, ... Tasks with PULL method can only be added into a PULL queue and PUSH tasks can only be added into a PUSH queue.
Notes on usage:
The recommended way to instantiate a TaskOptions object is to statically import TaskOptions.Builder.* and invoke a static creation method followed by an instance mutator (if needed):
```
 import static com.google.appengine.api.taskqueue.TaskOptions.Builder.*;

 ...
 QueueFactory.getDefaultQueue().add(withUrl(url).etaMillis(eta));
 
```

- Constructor Detail
  - TaskOptions
```
public TaskOptions(TaskOptions options)
```
    A copy constructor for TaskOptions.
- Method Detail
  - taskName
```
public TaskOptions taskName(String taskName)
```
    Sets the task name.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - The provided name is null, empty or doesn't match the regular expression QueueConstants.TASK_NAME_REGEX
  - getTaskName
```
public String getTaskName()
```
    Returns the task name.
  - getPayload
```
public byte[] getPayload()
```
    Returns the live payload for the task, not a copy. May be null.
  - payload
```
public TaskOptions payload(byte[] payload)
```
    Sets the payload directly without specifying the content-type. If this task is added to a push queue, the content-type will be set to 'application/octet-stream' by default.
    
    Parameters:
    
    payload - The bytes representing the paylaod.
    
    Returns:
    
    TaskOptions object for chaining.
  - payload
```
public TaskOptions payload(DeferredTask deferredTask)
```
    Sets the payload to the serialized form of the deferredTask object. The payload will be generated by serializing the deferredTask object using ObjectOutputStream.writeObject(Object). If the deferredTask's TaskOptions.Method is not PULL, the content type will be set to DeferredTaskContext.RUNNABLE_TASK_CONTENT_TYPE, the method will be forced to TaskOptions.Method.POST and if otherwise not specified, the url will be set to DeferredTaskContext.DEFAULT_DEFERRED_URL; the DeferredTask servlet is, by default, mapped to this url.
    Note: While this may be a convenient API, it requires careful control of the serialization compatibility of objects passed into payload(DeferredTask) method as objects placed in the task queue will survive revision updates of the application and hence may fail deserialization when the task is decoded with new revisions of the application. In particular, Java anonymous classes are convenient but may be particularly difficult to control or test for serialization compatibility.
    
    Parameters:
    
    deferredTask - The object to serialize into the payload.
    
    Throws:
    
    DeferredTaskCreationException - if there was an IOException serializing object.
  - payload
```
public TaskOptions payload(String payload,

    TaskOptions object for chaining.
  - payload
```
public TaskOptions payload(String payload)
