More thoughts on recurrence rules...
1. I can't determine the purpose of the following fields:
RecurrenceRule.bySetPosList
RecurrenceRule.weekStart
RecurrenceRule.xName
They don't seem to be used anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.
2. The RecurrenceInfo.recurrenceDateTimes and
RecurrenceInfo.exceptionDateTimes fields should not be used. They seem
to duplicate the information found in RecurrenceRule and there is no way
of knowing what the field contents mean. For example: what time zone is
the date/time referencing? The server's or the user's? What calendar
does the field represent?
I'd like to deprecate those two fields.
3. I'm thinking there might be a need to add a recurrenceTimeZone field
to RecurrenceInfo. The work I'm doing right now enables you to specify a
time zone at run time (the user's time zone for example), and if you
don't specify one then the server's time zone is used. I'm wondering if
there would be a need to set up a recurrence referenced to a certain
time zone.
Comments are welcome.
