ICalendar Object (ExICalendar)

The ExICalendar library implements the ICalendar data format, according with Internet Calendaring and Scheduling Core Object Specification, RFC 5545. The iCalendar data format represents exchanging calendaring and scheduling information such as events, to-dos, journal entries, and free/busy information, independent of any particular calendar service or protocol. The iCalendar format is suitable as an exchange format between applications or systems. The format is defined in terms of a MIME content type. This will enable the object to be exchanged using several transports, including but not limited to SMTP, HTTP, a file system, desktop interactive protocols such as the use of a memory-based clipboard or drag/drop interactions, point-to-point asynchronous communication, and so on.

The hierarchy of objects/properties of the ICalendar object is:

EXICALENDARLib.ICalendar
	"Content" -> EXICALENDARLib.Component
	"Root" -> EXICALENDARLib.Component
EXICALENDARLib.Component
	"Components" -> EXICALENDARLib.Components
	"Parent" -> EXICALENDARLib.Component
	"Properties" -> EXICALENDARLib.Properties
EXICALENDARLib.Components
	"Add(String)" -> EXICALENDARLib.Component
	"Item(Variant)" -> EXICALENDARLib.Component
EXICALENDARLib.Properties
	"Add(String,Variant)" -> EXICALENDARLib.Property
	"Item(Variant)" -> EXICALENDARLib.Property
EXICALENDARLib.Property
	"Component" -> EXICALENDARLib.Component
	"Parameters" -> EXICALENDARLib.Parameters
EXICALENDARLib.Parameters
	"Add(String,Variant)" -> EXICALENDARLib.Parameter
	"Item(Variant)" -> EXICALENDARLib.Parameter
EXICALENDARLib.Parameter
	"Property" -> EXICALENDARLib.Property

The ICalendar object supports the following properties and methods:

		Name	Description
		AttachTemplate	Attaches a script to the current object, including the events, from a string, file, a safe array of bytes.
		Content	Retrieves the object's content such as properties, and components.
		Debug	Gets debugging information.
		EventParam	Retrieves or sets a value that indicates the current's event parameter.
		ExecuteTemplate	Executes a template and returns the result.
		FireEvents	Specifies whether the control fires the events.
		fromICalendar	Converts the giving ICalendar expression to a VARIANT expression. For instance, fromICalendar("P15DT12H", exPropertyTypeDuration) returns 15.5 which indicates 15 days and 12 hours.
		Load	Loads and parses the iCalendar format from giving text.
		LoadFile	Loads a file.
		LoadFileFromUnicode	Loads from an UNICODE file.
		RecurAll	Returns all recurrences of the specified rule, as a safe array of dates. .
		RecurAllAsString	Returns all recurrences of the specified rule, as string (dates are separated by new line ) .
		RecurAllMethod	Specifies the way the component gets the occurrences of the recurrence rule ( RecurAll method ).
		RecurAllTime	Specifies the time in milliseconds that took to perform the last RecurAll call.
		RecurCheck	Evaluates the date using recurrence rules, and returns 1 if the Date matches the recurrence rule, 0 if not, or a negative number if any error occurs.
		RecurPartValue	Returns the value of the giving part of the recur expression.
		RecurRange	Returns all occurrences between start and and of the specified rule, as a safe array of dates.
		RecurRangeAsString	Returns all occurrences between start and and of the specified rule, as string (dates are separated by new line ).
		Root	Retrieves the root component of the content ( first component ).
		RuntimeKey	Specifies a runtime key to be used for the component.
		Save	Saves the content as iCalendar format.
		SaveFile	Saves the control's content to a file.
		SaveFileAsUnicode	Saves the control's content to file as UNICODE.
		Template	Specifies the control's template.
		TemplateDef	Defines inside variables for the next Template/ExecuteTemplate call.
		TemplatePut	Defines inside variables for the next Template/ExecuteTemplate call.
		toICalendar	Converts the giving VARIANT expression to ICalendar format. For instance, toICalendar(CSng(15.5), exPropertyTypeDuration) returns "P15DT12H".
		UserData	Indicates any extra data associated with the control / root.
		valuesFromICalendar	Extracts all values or specified value of the giving value in ICalendar format. For instance valuesFromICalendar("P15DT12H", exPropertyTypeDuration, "Duration") returns 15.5, which indicates the duration in days, hours, minutes, seconds as a DATE expression.
		valuesToICalendar	Converts the values to a value of ICalendar format. For instance, valuesToICalendar("Duration=15.5",exPropertyTypeDuration) returns "P15DT12H", which indicates 15 days and 12 hours.
		Version	Retrieves the control's version.
