​
Returns

List<TStateType>

​
Methods

​
Initialize

public virtual void Initialize()
Initializes the StateTypes collection by loading active state types from the database. This method is called automatically by state update methods if the collection is empty.

​
SetCancelledAsync

public virtual Task<bool> SetCancelledAsync(TEntity entity)
Sets the entity’s state to “Cancelled” (sort order 98).

​
Parameters

  • entity TEntity: The entity to update.

​
Returns

Task<bool> True if the state was successfully updated; otherwise, false.

​
SetCompletedAsync

public virtual Task<bool> SetCompletedAsync(TEntity entity)
Sets the entity’s state to “Completed” (sort order 100).

​
Parameters

  • entity TEntity: The entity to update.

Returns

Task<bool> True if the state was successfully updated; otherwise, false.

​
SetCreatedAsync

public Task<bool> SetCreatedAsync(TEntity entity)
Sets the entity’s state to “Created” (sort order 0).

​
Parameters

  • entity TEntity: The entity to update.

​
Returns

Task<bool> True if the state was successfully updated; otherwise, false.

​
SetFailedAsync

public virtual Task<bool> SetFailedAsync(TEntity entity, string errorMessage = "", string errorDetail = "")
Sets the entity’s state to “Failed” (sort order 99).

​
Parameters

  • entity TEntity: The entity to update.
  • errorMessage string: Optional error message (currently not used in implementation).
  • errorDetail string: Optional error detail (currently not used in implementation).

​
Returns

Task<bool> True if the state was successfully updated; otherwise, false.

​
UpdateStateAsync

public Task<bool> UpdateStateAsync(TEntity entity, int sortOrder)
Updates the entity’s state to the state type with the specified sort order. Logs the state transition for tracking purposes.

​
Parameters

  • entity TEntity: The entity to update.
  • sortOrder int: The sort order of the target state type.

​
Returns

Task<bool> True if the state was successfully updated; otherwise, false.
