Resource and Calendars

The Resource class exposes the Calendar property which is used to set or get the calendar for a resource. This property accepts and returns an Calendar object.

Working with Resource Calendars

To define a calendar for a resource in Microsoft Project:

1. In the Resource Sheet, double-click the desired resource.
2. Click the Change Working Time button.

The following code creates a standard calendar and resource and then assigns the calendar to the resource.

// The path to the documents directory.
String dataDir = Utils.getDataDir(ResourceAndCalendars.class);

Project project = new Project(dataDir + "input.mpp");
ResourceCollection alRes = project.getResources();
for (Resource res : alRes) {
    if (res.get(Rsc.NAME) != null) {
        // code to display res.Calendar properties
    }
}

The code below shows how to set resource calendars by traversing a project’s resources.

// For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/aspose-tasks/Aspose.Tasks-for-Java
// The path to the documents directory.
String dataDir = Utils.getDataDir(ResourceAndCalendars.class);

Project project = new Project();
Resource res = project.getResources().add("Resource1");

// add standard calendar
Calendar cal = project.getCalendars().add("Resource1");
res.set(Rsc.CALENDAR, cal);
