I fixed the array issue but its still not importing. I might figure it out but if anyone knows what might be wrong a solution would be appricieted. All the numbers seem to be correct in the string when i look it over and the size.



Exception thrown: 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.Scheduler.ICalendar.CalendarParseException'

 

        public async void exportSchedulerDataFile()
        {
            string exportResult = this.workScheduler.Export(new SchedulerICalendarExporter());

            await FirebaseHelper.uploadCalenderFile(exportResult);

        }

        public async Task importSchedulerDataFile()
        {
        
         
            string s = await FirebaseHelper.downloadCalanderFile();

            workScheduler.Import(s, new SchedulerICalendarImporter());

            Console.WriteLine("DID IT WORK?");
            workScheduler.Refresh();
        }

 

Im not sure what im doing wrong here.

Hi Benjamin,

Thank you for the provided code snippet.

I am not familiar with what FirebaseHelper.downloadCalanderFile() method returns. My guess is that this method returns the file name (or path) not the file content which leads to this error. I have tested the same approach and got the same error if I pass a not valid string. If I pass the content of the file as a string and pass it to the GenerateStreamFromString() method no error appears. You can check the following code snippet:

private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    using (FileStream stream = File.OpenRead("schedule.ics"))
    {
        using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
        {
            this.radScheduler1.Import(GenerateStreamFromString(reader.ReadToEnd()), new SchedulerICalendarImporter());
        }             
    }
}

private void radButton2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    using (FileStream stream = File.Create("./schedule.ics"))
    {
        this.radScheduler1.Export(stream, new SchedulerICalendarExporter());
    }
}
public static Stream GenerateStreamFromString(string s)
{
    var stream = new MemoryStream();
    var writer = new StreamWriter(stream);
    writer.Write(s);
    writer.Flush();
    stream.Position = 0;
    return stream;
}

This is the string that gets downloaded. But im not sure how its being exported because right now its a byte array string and needs to be a string. are the string numbers just next to eachother? Or is there any system to the string that you export?

You can place a breakpoint and check the content of the exportResult variable. I have checked this on my side and the exported string is in quite a different format than the one you have shared. It seems to me that something changes the content. Here is what I get when exporting the control with one appointment.

Ah okay thanks. Yah i read it as a byte array. But i need to convert everything to an string and it should look like this too. Because if you look at the values and convert to ASCII it seems to be correct letters. Thanks a lot. Will have to do a bit of work convering the string. But should work.
