I am trying to better understand how recurrences are handled by Google Calendar. For instance, when inserting a recurring event (through GData objective-c library) with the following recurrence
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20110816T105000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20110816T115000 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO,TU,WE,TH,FR;BYMONTH=8;BYSETPOS=-1;UNTIL=40010101T000000Z it appears in Google Calendar both on 08/16/2011 and 08/31/2011 (apart from successive repetitions in the next years). However, the same recurrence does not appear as an event on 08/16/2011 in iCal on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, only on 08/31/2011 (again, excluding successive repetitions). The same behavior is also provided by the latest available libical (http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeassociation/). So the question is, which one is correct with regard to RFC 2445? Is there any way to provide in Google Calendar the same behavior observed in iCal (without adding to the recurrence an exception for 08/16/2011) ? I would like to use the same recurrence in all of the cases, if this is possible. Thank you in advance, and best regards. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Calendar Data API" group.
