# clsTaskCategoryCodeCollection

Read-only lookup collection representing task categories for one source system.

## Purpose

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Tasks`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.BOF.Business.Tasks`

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Item(Index) | `Default ReadOnly Property(ByVal Index As Integer) As clsTaskCategoryCode` | Return the category row at the supplied collection index. |
| Item(inCode) | `Default ReadOnly Property(ByVal inCode As String) As clsTaskCategoryCode` | Return the category row for the supplied category code. |
| Description(Index) | `ReadOnly Property(ByVal Index As Integer) As String` | Return the description for the row at the supplied collection index. |
| Description(inCode) | `ReadOnly Property(ByVal inCode As String) As String` | Return the description for the supplied category code. |
| TaskSourceCode | `ReadOnly Property As String` | Return the source-system code used to load the collection. |
| IsValid | `Overrides ReadOnly Property As Boolean` | Indicate whether the collection contains valid category data. |
| Contains(inTaskCategoryCode) | `Overloads Function Contains(ByVal inTaskCategoryCode As clsTaskCategoryCode) As Boolean` | Return whether the active (non-deleted) list contains a row equal to `inTaskCategoryCode`. |
| Contains(inCode) | `Overloads Function Contains(ByVal inCode As String) As Boolean` | Return whether the active (non-deleted) list contains a row matching `inCode`. |
| ContainsDeleted(inTaskCategoryCode) | `Overloads Function ContainsDeleted(ByVal inTaskCategoryCode As clsTaskCategoryCode) As Boolean` | Return whether the deleted-items list contains a row equal to `inTaskCategoryCode`. |
| ContainsDeleted(inCode) | `Overloads Function ContainsDeleted(ByVal inCode As String) As Boolean` | Return whether the deleted-items list contains a row matching `inCode`. |
| GetCodes(inDataPortalInfo, inTaskSourceCode) | `Shared Function(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, ByVal inTaskSourceCode As String) As clsTaskCategoryCodeCollection` | Retrieve the category lookup set for one source-system code. |

## Behavioral notes
- Loads rows from `TASK_CATEGORY_CODE` through [SQL-007](../../sql/SQL-007-task-category-code-list-by-source.md).

## Constraints and usage notes
- Collection indexing is available by ordinal position or category code.
