iCalendar Export
This example demonstrates the Bootstrap Scheduler's support for the iCalendar data exchange format. It facilitates data transfer between applications that use Scheduler and other applications, such as Apple iCal, Google Calendar, Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, Novell GroupWise, Windows Calendar.
In this demo, you can save appointments into an iCalendar file with the .ics extension on the client host. This example creates an iCalendarExporter class instance and calls its Export method to save data to a memory stream. Then it is written to an output stream of an HttpResponse object.

iCalendar Import
This example demonstrates the Bootstrap Scheduler's support for the iCalendar data exchange format. It facilitates data transfer between applications that use Scheduler and other applications, such as Apple iCal, Google Calendar, Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, Novell GroupWise, Windows Calendar.
In this demo, you can load appointments from the iCalendar file. This example loads file data into a memory stream, creates an iCalendarImporter class instance and calls its Import method to load data into a scheduler. You can check the corresponding box to clear scheduler appointments before import.
