      • buildTimeZone

        public static java.util.SimpleTimeZone buildTimeZone​(java.lang.String ical)
        Builds a Java TimeZone from the VTIMEZONE info in an iCal file.
        Returns:
        a Java TimeZone that matches the iCal one, or NULL if no TZ info present

      • buildTimeZone

        protected static java.util.SimpleTimeZone buildTimeZone​(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,​java.lang.String> icalParams)
        Internal version that takes the parameters from getICalParams(String) and builds a TimeZone from it. This is not public as it will be refactored when getICalParams(String) is replaced. Note - because it uses the icalParams, we can't handle cases where we're given historic TZ info (eg until 2004 it was that, now it's this)

      • icalLineKeyValue

        protected static java.lang.String[] icalLineKeyValue​(java.lang.String icalLine)
        Splits an iCal line into key and value by the first unquoted colon.
        Parameters:
        icalLine - String

      • getICalParams

        protected static java.util.Map<java.lang.String,​java.lang.String> getICalParams​(java.lang.String icalText)
        Turns an iCal event into event + timezone parameters. This is very closely tied to the SPP / VTI implementation, and should be replaced with something more general. Until then, it is deliberately not public.
        Parameters:
        icalText - iCal text for the event, and the TZ (prefixed)
