TaskResult

TaskResult is a concept often found in programming and task management systems, representing the outcome of a completed operation or task. It typically encapsulates information about whether the task was successful or not, and if it failed, it may provide details about the reason for the failure.

A TaskResult object can be implemented in various ways depending on the programming language or framework. Common attributes include a status indicator, often a boolean or an enumeration, signifying success or failure. When a task fails, a TaskResult might also contain an error message, an error code, or even a more detailed exception object to help developers diagnose and resolve issues.

In some systems, a successful TaskResult might also carry return data, which is the result produced by the task itself, such as a calculated value or a processed data structure. Conversely, a failed TaskResult might contain no return data or a null value.

The purpose of TaskResult is to provide a standardized and structured way to handle the completion of asynchronous operations or any operation that might not necessarily succeed. This promotes clearer error handling and makes it easier for calling code to react appropriately to the outcome of a task. By examining the TaskResult, developers can determine the next steps, whether it's to process successful data, log an error, or retry the operation.
