Export a task
- Import the required classes and interfaces.
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.util.Enumeration;
import javax.microedition.pim.PIM;
import javax.microedition.pim.ToDo;
import javax.microedition.pim.ToDoList;
- Use an output stream writer to export tasks from the BlackBerry® device to a supported serial format.
- To retrieve a string array of supported serial formats, invoke PIM.supportedSerialFormats(), and then specify the list type (PIM.TODO_List).
- To write an item to a serial format, invoke PIM.getInstance().toSerialFormat. The enc parameter specifies the character encoding to use when writing to the output stream. Supported character encodings include "UTF8," "ISO-8859-1," and "UTF-16BE." This parameter cannot be null.
ToDoList todoList =
(ToDoList)PIM.getInstance().openPIMList(PIM.TODO_LIST, PIM.READ_ONLY);
ByteArrayOutputStream byteStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
String[] dataFormats = PIM.getInstance().supportedSerialFormats(PIM.TODO_LIST);
Enumeration e = todoList.items();
while (e.hasMoreElements())
{
ToDo task = (ToDo)e.nextElement();
PIM.getInstance().toSerialFormat(task, byteStream, "UTF8", dataFormats[0]);
}
