Examples and additional notes
Related issue: TASKSNET-10589 - Add an ability to map member of Tsk class to MS Project’s default field title
Now the user can get default title of the specific task field using FieldHelper class:
System.out.println(FieldHelper.getDefaultTaskFieldTitle(Tsk.TOTAL_SLACK_TIME_SPAN.getKeyType())); // Outputs 'Total Slack'
System.out.println(FieldHelper.getDefaultTaskFieldTitle(Tsk.PERCENT_WORK_COMPLETE.getKeyType())); // Outputs '% Work Complete'
System.out.println(FieldHelper.getDefaultTaskFieldTitle(Tsk.IS_NULL.getKeyType())); // Outputs 'null'
Please note that some members of Tsk class don’t have corresponding MS Project column and therefore don’t have default title.
Related issue: TASKSNET-10558 - Add support of reading of Activity Codes and its values for Primavera P6 XML format
Breaking change notice.
Prior to 22.8 Activity Codes of Primavera P6 formats (XER and Primavera P6) were mapped to text ExtendedAttributes with lookup calculation type.
It was a bit inaccurate because Activity Codes can have hierarchy of values, whilst lookup values cannot have hierarchy.
Since 22.8 Activity Codes are mapped to more appropriate Outline Codes. Outline Code definitions can be found at Project.OutlineCodes collection, values are stored in Task.OutlineCodes).
