Hi, We changed the format of the ics file to return times in GMT times for single events. This change is due to the fact that many older versions of outlook with bad timezone definitions were unable to handle times in local time properly.
I would recommend using standard timezone libraries like ICU4C or Joda time to perform timezone conversions. Hope that helps, Austin On Fri, Jul 11, 2008 at 1:15 AM, Paco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Starting today the ICS file (exporting calendar events) has changed > the DTSTART and DTEND for existing events. > > Yesterday, the following was retrieved for an event: > > DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Madrid:20080714T090000 > DTEND;TZID=Europe/Madrid:20080714T100000 > > And now I retrieved the following for the same event: > > DTSTART:20080714T070000Z > DTEND:20080714T080000Z > > As you can see there is a difference of 2 hours ( I guess for the > timezone). > > How can I get events in the yestarday's format? or is this caused by a > temporary error/change in Google? > > In order to circunvent this problem with my application, how can I > determine the real time taking in account the timezone and dayligth > saving as reported in the ICS file? > > Thanks > Paco > > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Calendar Data API" group.
