Upgrading the Calendar data API Developers Guide
March 28th, 2007 | Published in Google Code
We have been working on some new ways to help you quickly create applications, mashups, websites and scripts using GData services. Part of this initiative is to make our developer's guides more relevant and helpful to developers programming applications in different languages. To that end, we've updated the Google Calendar Developers Guide with more use cases and samples for all of the developer languages we support, including Java, .NET and PHP. The new Google Calendar Developers Guide allows developers to view information specific to each programming language. Each language-specific guide shows you how to accomplish a common set of operations in the language and provides a reference to downloadable source code which can be used to execute the sample methods.
Of course, GData at its heart remains a simple ReST-based protocol based upon open standards like HTTP and the Atom Publishing Protocol draft, so your data is always universally accessible. You're always free to access GData services using plain HTTP, or write a client library in the language of your choice.
We hope to soon build out the documentation for the rest of our GData services in a similar manner. Please let us know if you have comments or suggestions about our documentation.
See you in the groups!
Happy coding,
- Ryan Boyd, the GData team
