Some applications find it useful to cache task structures in an easily accessible table in the local application, rather than making a query to the name server every time task information is required. This caching is called "interning" the task structure. A task structure can be "found" locally only if it has been interned.
IP_TaskFindName - finds a task by its name.
IP_TaskFindID - finds a task by its node, process, and channel IDs.
IP_TaskCopy - copies a task structure.
IP_TaskIntern - adds a task to a process's task cache.
IP_TaskUnintern - removes a task from a process's task cache.
