Fetching news could be a task that should run * frequently. * * Queued tasks have to be registered each time you want to execute them. * An example of the queued task would be the creation of the thumbnail. As * soon as the user uploads a picture the gallery app registers the queued * task "create thumbnail" and saves the path in the parameter instead of doing * the work right away. This makes the app more responsive. As soon as the task * is done it will be deleted from the list. */ class BackgroundJob { /** * @brief get the execution type of background jobs * @return string * * This method returns the type how background jobs are executed.
