My issue is, I have to make one demo application in which I wants to read the events of the Google calendar, for that I have manually inserted the events like the title of event, the time of events and the details of the whole events. now I need to just read those events form that calendar. For that I have tried to use the gcode(google code) API which provides the calendar API class. But still I cant read those events.
That code above is pretty awful (and it does not seem to work in ICS - definitely the column names are different)
The page here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/calendar-provider.html
provides a much better overview. A (much) simpler code to retrieve calendars:
public class CalendarContentResolver {
public static final String[] FIELDS = {
CalendarContract.Calendars.NAME,
CalendarContract.Calendars.CALENDAR_DISPLAY_NAME,
CalendarContract.Calendars.CALENDAR_COLOR,
CalendarContract.Calendars.VISIBLE
};
public static final Uri CALENDAR_URI = Uri.parse("content://com.android.calendar/calendars");
ContentResolver contentResolver;
Set<String> calendars = new HashSet<String>();
public CalendarContentResolver(Context ctx) {
contentResolver = ctx.getContentResolver();
}
public Set<String> getCalendars() {
// Fetch a list of all calendars sync'd with the device and their display names
Cursor cursor = contentResolver.query(CALENDAR_URI, FIELDS, null, null, null);
try {
if (cursor.getCount() > 0) {
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
String name = cursor.getString(0);
String displayName = cursor.getString(1);
// This is actually a better pattern:
String color = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(CalendarContract.Calendars.CALENDAR_COLOR));
Boolean selected = !cursor.getString(3).equals("0");
calendars.add(displayName);
}
}
} catch (AssertionError ex) { /*TODO: log exception and bail*/ }
return calendars;
}
}
Hope this helps!
