[sherazam khan]

What is new in this release?

We are pleased to announce the release of Aspose.Tasks for Java 9.1.0 . This month’s release includes enhancements related to the API’s Project class for loading Primavera files from stream and reading the entire project IDs from Primavera XML files. A Primavera project document may contain more than one project where each project is identified by its own unique identifier (UID). Aspose.Tasks for Java now supports reading all the project ids from such a Primavera document that can then be used to access and retrieve individual project from such a file. The following sample code shows how to retrieve all project IDs from multi-project Primavera XML file. This month’s release also includes a new property to the Tsk class for retrieving task duration as text. This can be retrieved using the Tsk.DURATION_TEXT property. If this field returns null, the Duration filed can be used to get the task duration. Ported from its equivalent .NET version, Aspose.Tasks for Java includes the same bug fixes as were part of its equivalent .NET version. Below is the complete list of bug fixes and enhanced features included in this release.

- Implement Task.DurationText field writing to mpp 2010/2013 formats
- Read Task.DurationText field from project file
- Provide constructor for Project(Stream steam,PrimaveraXmlReadingOptions options)
