Property Value
A comma-separated list of task names.
Remarks
Typically, you use dependencies to break a large task into smaller subtasks. For example, if task A needs to finish before task B, which needs to finish before task C, then task B depends on A and task C depends on B. Task B will not run until A finishes, fails, or is canceled.
The method checks for circular dependencies.
The dependency is ignored if the task is specified in a command (see Cluster.ExecuteCommand).
