Dynamic Task description?

Is it possible to dynamically create the task description based on items in an attached DCR?

To further clarify:

Idea is to take value from DCR and imbed it in the Task description. Is using iwsettaskdescription the most appropriate way of doing this within the wft?

I don't believe you can do it with the CLT within the WFT - I think you'd have to do it as a task (externaltask / cgitask) within the workflow - because the CLT (and it's associated method calls in TeamSite::WFtask) are intended to be run against instantiated tasks.

Within the WFT you could do it by programmatically generating the WFT (best done with TeamSite::WFconstructor) and use the information from the pre-attached DCR during the process of generating the WFT code before it becomes instantiated.
