Public API and Backwards Incompatible Changes
| The following public methods and properties were added: | Description |
|---|---|
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.addLookupValue(com.aspose.tasks.Value) | Adds a value to the internal lookup list. This is a preferable way for manipulations with the “com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.getValueList”. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.removeLookupValue(com.aspose.tasks.Value) | Removes a value from the internal lookup list. This is a preferable way for manipulations with the “com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.getValueList”. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.createExtendedAttribute(com.aspose.tasks.Value) | Creates new extended attribute linked with specified “com.aspose.tasks.Value” item. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.createTaskDefinition(com.aspose.tasks.CustomFieldType, com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeTask, java.lang.String) | Factory method which creates a simple extended attribute definition, which Microsoft Project shows as “None”. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.createResourceDefinition(com.aspose.tasks.CustomFieldType, com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeResource, java.lang.String) | Factory method which creates a simple extended attribute definition, which Microsoft Project shows as “None”. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.createLookupDefinition | Factory method which creates an extended attribute definition with lookup. It has “com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.CalculationType” equals to “com.aspose.tasks.CalculationType.Lookup”. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.createLookupTaskDefinition(com.aspose.tasks.CustomFieldType, com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeTask, java.lang.String) | Factory method which creates an extended attribute definition with lookup. |
| com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeDefinition.createLookupResourceDefinition(com.aspose.tasks.CustomFieldType, com.aspose.tasks.ExtendedAttributeResource, java.lang.String) | Factory method which creates an extended attribute definition with lookup. |
| com.aspose.tasks.NullableBool.toString | |
| com.aspose.tasks.OutlineValue.getValueGuid | Gets a GUID which identifies this value among others in the entire project. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Project.selectAllChildTasks | Recursively collects all child tasks of this project. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Task.selectAllChildTasks | Recursively collects all child tasks of this task. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Value.getValueGuid | Gets a GUID which identifies this value among others in the entire project. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Value.getStringValue/setStringValue | Gets or sets the actual value which is used to represent Text string. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Value.getNumberValue/setNumberValue | Gets or sets the actual value which is used to represent integer number. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Value.getDurationValue/setDurationValue | Gets or sets the actual value which is used to represent Duration in minutes. Default value is 0. |
| com.aspose.tasks.Value.getDateTimeValue/setDateTimeValue | Gets or sets the actual value if it can be represented as DateTime. Default value is “com.aspose.ms.System.DateTime.MinValue”. |
| The following public enumerations were added: | Description |
| com.aspose.tasks.CalculationType.Lookup | Means the extended attribute has a lookup table to select values from. |
| The following public enumerations were deleted: | Description |
| com.aspose.tasks.CalculationType.Null |
