Wrong All Day Events

[Anonymous]

Hi,

if I read a calendar with all-day events ("DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20150701") the event.getDateStart().hasTime() gets correctly false. But if I try to export them, they transform to midnight events ("DTSTART:20150701T000000").

What I'm doing wrong?

Hi Timon,

This is a known issue (see Ticket 7). The fix will be included in the next stable release.

Workaround: Tweak the DTSTART property before writing the iCalendar object like so:

:::java
String str =
"BEGIN:VCALENDAR\r\n" +
  "VERSION:2.0\r\n" +
  "BEGIN:VEVENT\r\n" +
    "DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20140930\r\n" +
  "END:VEVENT\r\n" +
"END:VCALENDAR";
ICalendar ical = Biweekly.parse(str).first();

DateStart dtstart = ical.getEvents().get(0).getDateStart();
dtstart.setRawComponents(null);

System.out.println(Biweekly.write(ical).go());
