11: Using PIM applications

Code sample: Creating new recurring appointments

To let the BlackBerry® device user invite attendees to the meeting, combine this code sample with

ContactsDemo.java.

See “Code sample: Displaying a screen that lets BlackBerry device users add new contacts” on page 175 for more

information.

Example: EventDemo.java

/**

* EventDemo.java

package com.rim.samples.docs.eventdemo;

import java.io.*;

import java.util.*;

import javax.microedition.pim.*;

import net.rim.device.api.ui.*;

import net.rim.device.api.ui.component.*;

import net.rim.device.api.ui.container.*;

import net.rim.device.api.i18n.*;

import net.rim.device.api.system.*;

import net.rim.device.api.util.*;

public final class EventDemo extends UiApplication

{

Import an appointment. 1. Write appointment to iCal.

String[] dataFormats = PIM.eventSerialFormats();

ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

PIM.getInstance().toSerialFormat(event, os, "UTF8", dataFormats[0]);

2. Import appointment from iCal.

ByteArrayInputStream is = new

ByteArrayInputStream(outputStream.toByteArray());

3. To return an array of PIMItem objects, invoke fromSerialFormat(java.io.InputStream

is, java.lang.String enc)

PIMItem[] pi = PIM.getInstance().fromSerialFormat(is, "UTF8");

4. To add a new appointment, invoke EventList.importEvent().

EventList eventList = (EventList)PIM.getInstance().openPIMList(

PIM.EVENT_LIST, PIM.READ_WRITE);

Event event2 = eventList.importEvent((Event)pi[0]);

Close an event list. 1. Invoke close().

2. Create a try-catch block to manage a PimException.

try {

eventList.close();

} catch (PimException e) {

// Handle exception.

}
