Visual Studio 2010 - Task List. What is the UNDONE token used for?

I know these are customisable, but I'm intrigued as to what the last one indicates.

  • TODO
  • HACK
  • UNDONE

Has anyone ever used this? If so, what for?

What is task list in Visual Studio?

Use Task List to track code comments that use tokens such as TODO and HACK , or custom tokens, and to manage shortcuts that take you directly to a predefined location in code. Click on the item in the list to go to its location in the source code. Note. This topic applies to Visual Studio on Windows.

How do I see all Todos in Visual Studio?

From within Visual Studio Go to View -> Task List. This will display the Task List window and show you any area of your open Solution that has existing comments that start with // TODO . You can filter down to your Current Project, Current Document, or Open Documents.

It looks to be for incomplete code. As in: I'm not done with this part, so I will remind myself to start here next time.

Whenever you are typing code and you know that you are about to leave something undone, simply type in a comment that starts with ‘undone’. When you do this, Visual Studio .NET can show all your undone items in the Task List toolwindow.
