  • Correctly parse midnight represented as 24:00:00 from MSPDI files written by certain non-Microsoft Project applications.

  • Added the ability to read Subproject data embedded in MSPDI files.
  • Added the ability to read timephased baseline work and cost from MSPDI files.
  • Added the ability to write timephased baseline work and cost to MSPDI files.
  • Improve accuracy of timephased baseline work read from MPP files.
  • Ensure that non-recurring calendar exceptions take precedence over recurring calendar exceptions.
  • Avoid creating duplicate calendar exceptions when reading Asta PP files.
  • Added the Bar Name attribute to Task, which is accessed using the getBarName and setBarName methods. This is populated with the name of the bar to which a task belongs when reading an Asta Powerproject schedule.
  • When reading schedules from XER files and P6 databases, ensure durations without a value are returned as null rather than as a zero duration.

Version 11.4.0

  • Added the "Resource Pool File" attribute to ProjectProperties, which represents the full path of the resource pool used by an MPP file. This attribute is accessible via the getResourcePoolFile and setResourcePoolFile methods.
  • Added the getResourcePoolObject method to allow the resource pool file to be located and read
  • Added support for reading the task attribute Subproject GUID from MPP files. This attribute can be accessed via the getSubprojectGUID and setSubprojectGUID methods.
  • Added support for the task attribute "External Project". When this attribute is true it indicates that the task represents a subproject. The attribute is accessed via the getExternalProject and setExternalProject methods.
  • When reading an MSPDI file with external task predecessors, MPXJ now attempts to recreate the placeholder external tasks which would be present if the equivalent MPP file was read.
  • External task predecessors are now represented when writing an MSPDI file.
  • Added the Task method getSubprojectObject which allows the caller to retrieve a ProjectFile instance representing the external project linked to a task.
  • Added the Task method expandSubproject. For task which represent an external project, this method automatically loads the external project and attaches the tasks it contains as children of the current task. This is analogous to the behavior in Microsoft Project where a subproject is expanded to reveal the tasks it contains.
  • Added the ProjectFile method expandSubprojects which identifies any tasks in the project which represent an external project and expands them, linking the tasks from the external project as children of the task in the parent project. Note that the method works recursively so multiple levels of external tasks will be expanded.
  • Updated to ensure that the internal_name attribute of a UserdefinedField is generated if not present.
  • Updated to avoid an exception when reading notebook topics from PMXML files.
  • Marked the Task method setSubprojectName as deprecated. Use the setSubProjectFile method instead.
  • Marked the Task method getSubprojectName as deprecated. Use getSubprojectFile instead.
  • Marked the Task method setExternalTaskProject as deprecated. Use the setSubprojectFile method instead.
  • Marked the Task method getExternalTaskProject as deprecated. Use the getSubprojectFile method instead.
  • Marked the ProjectFile method getSubProjects as deprecated. Use the subproject attributes on individual tasks instead.
  • Marked the Task methods getSubProject and setSubProject as deprecated. Use the subproject attributes instead.

  • Implemented PrimaveraXERFileWriter to allow MPXJ to write XER files.
  • Updated the ActivityCode class to ensure that both the scope Project ID and EPS ID can be represented when reading a P6 schedule. (Potentially breaking change if you were using this class).
  • Ensure secondary constraint date and type are written to PMXML files.
  • Ensure leveling priority is written to PMXML files.
  • Ensure WBS UDF values are written to PMXML files.
  • Ensure integer UDF values are read correctly from XER files and P6 databases.

  • Add method to allow a task's parent task unique ID to be retrieved.
  • Add methods to allow a resource assignment's role unique ID to be set and retrieved.
  • Add methods to allow a resource assignment's cost account unique ID to be set and retrieved.
  • Add method to allow a cost account's parent unique ID to be retrieved.
  • Add method to allow an expense item's cost account unique ID to be retrieved.
  • Add method to allow an expense item's category unique ID to be retrieved.

  • Improve accuracy of certain work calculations where the specified time period does not start with a working day.
  • Fix an issue which caused negative timephased work values to be generated when reading certain MPP files.
  • Fix an issue reading XER files where the critical_drtn_hr_cnt field is expressed a decimal rather than an integer.
  • Fix an issue populating the WBS attribute for activities read from certain XER files.

  • The project property Critical Slack Limit is now represented as a Duration rather than as an Integer. (Potentially breaking change if you were using this property directly).
  • TaskType is now a simple enum with all Microsoft Project specific functionality moved into TaskTypeHelper. (Potentially breaking change if you were using the TaskType methods getInstance or getValue in your code)
  • When reading the task type from P6 schedule the mapping to the MPXJ TaskType enum has been updated to more closely match P6. The main changes are that the P6 type "Fixed Units" now maps to TaskType.FIXED_WORK and the "Fixed Duration & Units" type now maps to a new enumeration value TaskType.FIXED_DURATION_AND_UNITS.
  • Added support for reading project calendar exceptions from Phoenix schedules (based on a contribution by Rohit Sinha).
  • The Resource attribute Active now defaults to true if the schedule being read doesn't support or contain a value for this attribute.
  • Add suport for reading and writing the Resource's Active flag for P6 schedules.
  • Add suport for reading and writing the Resource's Default Units/Time value for P6 schedules.
  • Add suport for reading and writing the Project's Critical Slack Limit value for P6 schedules.
  • Fixed an issue reading certain types of Enterprise Custom Fields containing date values.
  • Ensure activity code value parent can be set to null.
  • Improved existing .Net extension methods and added support for more types.
  • Added NuGet package icon
  • Simplified NuGet packaging

  • Write activity code definitions and activity code assignments to PMXML files.
  • Added support for "secure" and "max length" attributes to the ActivityCode class.
