Google Calendar API v2 to v3 upgrade (deprecated 17-Nov-2014) #684

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
The Google Calendar API v2 will be deprecated on 17-Nov-2014. The current 
GData's Calendar API implementation (for .NET) is based on v2, am I right? When 
are you planning to upgrade to v3 to assurre continuous operations of the 
Software using it?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Google Data APi 2.2.0 on Win7

The Calendar API v3 is built on Google's new APIs infrastructure and already 
supported by the corresponding library:

Does this mean, that the Client library 2.2.2 already is based on Calendar Api 
v3? 
https://code.google.com/p/google-gdata/downloads/detail?name=Google_Data_API_Set
up_2.2.0.0.msi&can=2&q=

Because I found several things, that are in conflict with what was mentioned in 
the comparison between v2 and v3 (what are the differences ): still EventEntry 
(should be Event), still CalendarService (should be CalendarRequest),...

No, to use the Calendar API v3 with .NET you need to download a different 
library, available at https://code.google.com/p/google-api-dotnet-client/.

That library is the one to be used for all new APIs.

Are These .net libraries compliant with the latest Google Data API you provide 
within this Homepage? Because we are not only using Calendar API, but also 
Contacts and Documents api. Up to now, we were using just the downloaded dlls 
from this Homepage. A Contacts API is not available in the v3 Downloads. So 
what to do? mix the Calendar v3 API with the Contact/Documents v2 Api? Or will 
you merge the v3 APIs into your libraries (highly appreciated)?

We are also using the GData .NET library, and we're confused about this as 
well.  It looks like to get API v3 support for calendars you have to use a 
whole new .NET library which is not compatible with code using the older GData 
.NET library.  This is a real bummer, as much source code is built around the 
older library.  Would have been nice to keep the interface the same...

We also use GData .NET library for contacts, and interestingly it appears the 
contacts stuff does use API v3.  There isn't even a contact API interface in 
the new .NET library, only in the old .NET library.

This is all very confusing, a nice explanation of the versions/issues between 
old/new .NET libraries would be helpful.

I would be also interested in this, because v2 stopped to work on 17-Nov

Muy mal, aplicaciones completas estan rotas por un cambio tan abrupto.

Lo minimo al hacer actualizaciones tan drasticas es introducir los cambios de 
modo gradual y proporcionar soporte a las viejas versiones en el proceso.

The deprecation of the Calendar API v2 was announced in 2011, giving 3 years 
for developers to update their apps:
