Sets the minutes that the system must be idle before the work item can run.
A value that specifies how long, in minutes, the system must remain idle before the work item can run.
A value that specifies the maximum number of minutes that the Task Scheduler will wait for the idle-time period returned in pwIdleMinutes.
The SetIdleWait method returns S_OK.
The idle time specified here is used in conjunction with idle triggers and idle conditions. For more information, see Task Idle Conditions. Idle triggers are event-based triggers that are not associated with a scheduled time. Idle conditions, in contrast, are associated with the scheduled start time for the task.
You specify idle triggers by setting the TASK_TRIGGER_TYPE member of the TASK_TRIGGER to TASK_EVENT_TRIGGER_ON_IDLE. The idle trigger is fired when the system becomes idle for the amount of time specified by wIdleMinutes.
You set idle conditions by calling IScheduledWorkItem::SetFlags. If the TASK_FLAG_START_ONLY_IF_IDLE flag is set, the work item runs at its scheduled time only if the system becomes idle for the amount of time specified by wIdleMinutes. The Task Scheduler service will wait up to the number of minutes specified in wDeadlineMinutes past the scheduled start time to see if the system becomes idle.
Applications must call the IPersistFile::Save method after calling SetIdleWait to update the idle wait interval.
For an example of how to set the idle wait time when creating an idle trigger, see Creating an Idle Trigger Example.
