Duration Property

Duration of the calendar event.

Syntax

__property String Duration = {read=FDuration, write=FSetDuration, default=""};

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the duration for a calendar event. Durations are represented by the format P<date>T<time>. The date component may contain a number of days or weeks (but not months or years), and the time component may consist of hours, minutes, and seconds. These are represented by an integer value followed by a letter representing the units, as specified by the table below:


P	is the duration designator (historically called "period") placed at the start of the duration representation.
W	is the week designator that follows the value for the number of weeks.
D	is the day designator that follows the value for the number of days.
T	is the time designator that precedes the time components of the representation.
H	is the hour designator that follows the value for the number of hours.
M	is the minute designator that follows the value for the number of minutes.
S	is the second designator that follows the value for the number of seconds.

For example, "P4DT12H30M5S" represents a duration of four days, twelve hours, thirty minutes, and five seconds. Unused date/time designators may be left out completely. (A five-minute duration may be represented as simply "PT5M"). Also note that "PT36H" and "P1DT12H" represent the same duration.

This format is based on ISO-8601, but unlike the ISO specification this duration property does not support durations measured in years or months.

This property is filled from the response to a GetCalendarEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the PutCalendarEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
