Quick Start

This example reads a calendar PDB file, and converts the records to ScheduleRecord objects using a ScheduleConverter.

try (PdbFile pdb = new PdbFile(new File("calendar.pdb")) {
    PdbDatabase<ScheduleRecord, CategoryAppInfo> database = pdb.readDatabase(new ScheduleConverter());

    System.out.printf("Name: %s\n", database.getName());

    List<Category> cats = database.getAppInfo().getCategories();
    for (int ix = 0; ix < cats.size(); ix++) {
        System.out.printf("Category %d: %s\n", ix, cats.get(ix));
    }

    for (ScheduleRecord entry : database.getRecords()) {
        System.out.println(entry);
    }
}
