Hello Lewis,

Problem can be solved by setting Project.WeekStartDay property, for example DayType.Monday. Exception will be fixed in the next version.

1. I would imagine you should have both.

 

2. I would venture that it is a small fraction but I don't collect the data. The use of .NEt 2.0 is pretty wide-spread from what I have seen so I think it is worth considering. i use 3.5 and can't imagine coding to 1.1 anymore but that is my world.

Null ref still being thrown after setting the property:

ProjectReader reader = new ProjectReader();

FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"C:\temp\test.xml", FileMode.Open);

Project p = new Project();

p.WeekStartDay = DayType.Monday;

p = reader.Read(fs);

Lewis,

I mean you should set this property when create xml project.

Hello,

Attached Aspose.Tasks has been updated.

• Reading xml projects without WeekStartDay property works fine now.
• Added Task.ParentProject and Task.ParentTask properties.
• Added Project.UpdateReferences method which updates above properties. Called automatically after project reading. Currently should be called manually before Parent* properties access in case tasks were added/deleted/moved before it.

Alexey,

 

The attached mpp throws a null ref:

ProjectReader reader = new ProjectReader();

FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"C:\temp\sample.mpp", FileMode.Open);

Project p = reader.Read(fs);

Alan,

Thank you for the project file. 2 problems have been fixed.

• Exception on reading ResourceAssignment.LevelingDelayFormat.
• Exception on reading Timaphased Data in case it's null in both MPP9 and MPP12.

I am using the latest DLL, and am getting this odd error:

Offset and length were out of bounds for the array or count is greater than the number of elements from index to the end of the source collection.

code is:

Proj = projReader.Read(New FileStream("Resource Planning.mpp", FileMode.Open))

this is for project 2007

Hi Alexey,

I can't find the task.baseline in the new dll, can you please tell me where is it?

Hello Lewis,

Baseline for tasks differ from other baseline properties and implementation was little delayed. Anyway, it should be available in a few days for all supported formats.

I will have to create a simular schedule that causes the crash - the one i am using is pretty confidential and i can't upload.  as soon as i get free time i will upload the schedule. thanks!

Hi, I got this working - i am not sure what was wrong with the MPP file, but it now seems to read.

Hi, I am able to get the project to open, and i assign the Project.Resources to an arraylist, which I assume is an array of type Resource.

Seems to work, but noticed that start, finish and Phonetics are all missing.

Any eta on when this will be in?

Alexey,

A few items:

1. Durations keep appearing in minutes (or not at all). I have trie dthe durationformat and it works but I lose the values when it is applied. I am using the fixed durations as the TaskType.

2. I had to resort to project interop to get this to work but how do I display extended attributes in the project? I can assign them but I need them to display as well. Hiding certain columns is also desirable. I tried to use Secondary PID but with no luck.

3. How do I set predecessors?

4. How do i collapse tasks on the initial view?

Thanks,

Alan
