New Post: Any thought to using the "last_sync" parameter for GetList?

johnlong — Thu, 17 May 2012 02:31:00 GMT

It looks like each time you get a TaskList, you download the entire list from RTM. With the last_sync parameter for rtm.tasks.getList it seems you could only get the rtm items that have changed and leave the rest local. I could do the change, but wondered if you wanted a crack at it, or if I'm missing something about your code and you are already doing it.

It's just because nobody asked for it until now :)

I just submitted a change: you can set Rtm.Client.UseHttps to True. It's False by default, however, for backward compatibility.

I forked the code and downloaded it and MD5.CS is missing from the project. The proj file has a reference but it is not been included.

Comments: Not sure either... it was a long time ago :) Probably I forgot to add the file (although I thought it was you, Juliana, who created the WindowsPhone project?) Anyway, the license seems OK to me, so I added file.

Closed Issue: Changing DueDateTime incorrectly changes the due time on RTM [6036]

ludovic_chabant — Wed, 09 May 2012 17:08:28 GMT

When I tried to change a task to a due date with time 18:00, it changed it to 6:00 on RTM.

When I change it to 13:30 it stores it on RTM as 1:30

Seems like it translates to AM/PM, but I dont see PM / AM in the 'due date' field on RTM.

Weird thing is, that once I load the task through IronCow, the time IS correct (as in 18:00 not 6:00) but this makes it hard to mix usage between RTM the website and my tool.

If it matters, I'm using 'Dutch' on the RTM website.

Closed Issue: Issue - Login Filed - Invalid Auth Token [6840]

ludovic_chabant — Wed, 09 May 2012 16:35:54 GMT

Hi,

Could you please give me an example code of GetAuthenticationToken() method referred at http://ironcow.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Sample%20Code%20Using%20The%20Rtm%20Class&referringTitle=Home ?

I tried to generate an authentication token using the querystring parameters i pass in http://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/auth/ url but it gives invalid auth token error. I generate the authentication token as per mentioned here - http://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/api/authentication.rtm

Please let me know how to generate the authentication token.

Thanks
Alpesh

Closed Issue: Request time limitation is too strict [5064]

ludovic_chabant — Wed, 09 May 2012 16:31:44 GMT

Sometimes I encountered "The operation has timed out" exception. It is a fact that my net speed to RTM is slow.
This issue has been resolved after I directly modified my local copy of IronCow source code at Rest\RestClient.cs, line 55. origin this line is Timeout = 5000, I changed it to 50000.
My fixing is not good enough. It is better to set a configuration item for time out.

Here are exception detail in encountered when call rtm.CheckToken(storedToken, out auth).
System.Net.WebException was unhandled

Hey there,

RememberTheMilk's API allow usage of an HTTPS address for requests. Why IronCow is using the non-secured version?

New Post: Offline Syncing

ludovic_chabant — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 05:48:37 GMT

Hey,

When "Syncing" is enabled, it means that any change to the object model will fire up a web request to execute that change with the RTM API. You mostly call DisableSyncing when you want to test your application locally.

In theory, it wouldn't be too hard indeed to have an offline mode where all web requests are cached until Sync is enabled again, but this is not supported at the moment.

New Post: Offline Syncing

Haemoglobin — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 15:34:01 GMT

Hi there,

I've been trying to understand what this "Syncing" concept is within the code, and whether this relates to offline use.

For example, the Rtm.DisableSyncing() method, when would you use this? Is there any way of resyncing up all changes to RTM by turning Syncing back on again after carrying out a series of actions? Or is this for something else?

Thanks,
Hamish

New Post: Ignore completed tasks

ludovic_chabant — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 21:51:08 GMT

That method should return the task-lists (not the tasks themselves). It's only when you start accessing one of those lists' tasks that it would sync.

Back when I wrote this I looked at the way the RTM guys do it on the website, and they also synced all the completed tasks, so I did the same. This makes it simpler when you start running search queries that may need to include completed tasks. Having to manage partially-synced objects can get quite hairy (although it's not impossible to do I guess).

So, answering the question: no, it's not possible to ignore completed tasks, sorry.
