Interface ITaskResultFormatter<T>

Type Parameters:

T - The return type of the task whose results this formatter will format.

public interface ITaskResultFormatter<T>

A specialized format converter that takes the return value of a matched ITask object and converts it into a String representation. This formatter is capable of more than a simple toString() of the task result; it can format the result in anyway that it chooses and/or add additional textual elements to make the string output "prettier" and/or more easily readable.
Since the formatter must be matched to the task, instances of this interface are generally produced by factory methods on the ITask object itself.
