Reading Task Duration as Text & Mono Framework Support inside .NET Apps

What’s new in this release?

We are proud to announce the new release of Aspose.Tasks for .NET 9.1.0. This month’s release of Aspose.Tasks has been enhanced and tested to work with Mono Framework. Moreover, it includes a number of bug fixes that improves overall API functionality. Mono is a software platform designed to allow developers for creating cross platform applications. It is an open source implementation of Microsoft’s .NET Framework based on the ECMA standards for C# and the Common Language Runtime. We are pleased to share that Aspose.Tasks API is now supported for Mono Framework. Hence, developers can now use the API to write applications for manipulating Microsoft Project as well as Primavera documents over a number of platforms. The API has been tested with Mono on Linux Operating System (Ubuntu) for functionality. It can be used to develop applications for Working with Projects, Working with Tasks, Working with Task Links, Working with Task Baselines, Working with Resources, Working with Resource Assignments, Working with Calendar and Calendar Exceptions and Working with Currencies. The API, however, has certain limitations. This month’s release also includes a new property to the Tsk class for retrieving task duration as text. This can be retrieved using the Tsk.DurationText property. If this field returns NULL, the Duration filed can be used to get the task duration. The API also includes a number of bug fixes that further improves the overall functionality. These include different types of exceptions while reading certain project files. This release includes plenty of new features as listed below
  • Implement Task.DurationText field writing to mpp 2010/2013 formats
  • Support Aspose.Tasks for Mono
  • Read Task.DurationText field from project file
  • Project reading exception while loading the MPP file
  • Reading MPP file raises ProjectReadingException
  • Project reading exception raised while loading the project
Other most recent bug fixes are also included in this release

Overview: Aspose.Tasks for .NET

Aspose.Tasks is a non-graphical .NET Project management component that enables .NET applications to read, write and manage Project documents without utilizing Microsoft Project. With Aspose.Tasks you can read and change tasks, recurring tasks, resources, resource assignments, relations and calendars. Aspose.Tasks is a very mature product that offers stability and flexibility. As with all of the Aspose file management components, Aspose.Tasks works well with both WinForm and WebForm applications.
