Version 12.10.2

• Added a missing unique ID mapping when writing resource assignment resource unique IDs to MSPDI files (Contributed by Alex Matatov)
• Handle null field type when reading outline code values from an MPP9 file.

Version 12.10.1

• Ignore missing PropertySets when reading MPP files (Contributed by Fabian Schmidt).
• Corrected handling of the "24 Hour Calendar" Relationship Lag Calendar setting when reading and writing XER files (Based on a contribution by Alex Matatov)

Version 12.10.0

• When a baseline is added using one of the ProjectFile.setBaseline methods, ensure that the relevant baseline date is set in ProjectProperties.
• Marked the JsonWriter methods setEncoding and getEncoding as deprecated, use setCharset and getCharset instead.
• Marked the PlannerWriter methods setEncoding and getEncoding as deprecated, use setCharset and getCharset instead.
• Marked the PrimaveraXERFileWriter method setEncoding as deprecated, use setCharset instead.
• Marked the ProjectCalendarHelper method getExpandedExceptionsWithWorkWeeks as deprecated, use ProjectCalendar.getExpandedCalendarExceptionsWithWorkWeeks instead.
• Marked the ProjectReader method setCharset as deprecated. Readers which support setting the Chraset now implement the HasCharset interface, which includes Charset getter and setter methods.
• Implemented the UniversalProjectWriter class. This complements the UniversalProjectReader class by providing a simple way for MPXJ users to write project files without having to be concerned with details of the individual ProjectWriter classes. This is intended to replace the ProjectWriterUtility class. Note that the ProjectWriterUtility has a somewhat brittle mechanism to determine the output file format from the supplied output file name. This is not replicated by UniversalProjectWriter, users are expected to provide their own code to determine the appropriate file format.
• Marked the ProjectWriterUtility class as deprecated.

Version 12.9.3

• Improve handling of non-standard timestamp formats in XER files.

Version 12.9.2

• Ensure calendars in Asta schedules have the correct name.
• Improve assignment of calendars to summary tasks when reading Asta schedules.
• Preserve calendar hierarchy when reading Asta schedules.

Version 12.9.1

• Fix an issue where UniversalProjectReader would raise an exception when handling an unknown file type.
• Ensure that resource type is included as part of the resource assignment data when writing PMXML files.

Version 12.9.0

• Updated UniversalProjectReader to add getProjectReaderProxy methods to allow access to the instance of the reader class which will be used to read a schedule, prior to the schedule being read. This will allow the reader to be configured, or schedule to be ignored without reading its content.
• Deprecated the ProjectReader.setProperties method. This method was originally implemented to allow settings to be passed to reader classes when using UniversalProjectReader. You can now use UniversalProjectReader.getProjectReaderProxy to achieve this.
• Add from method to all Builder classes to allow initialisation from existing objects.
• The CostAccount.Builder class now provides two notes methods to allow formatted or unformatted notes to be added to cost accounts.
• The CostAccount method getDescription() has been marked as deprecated. Use the getNotes() or getNotesObject() method instead.
• The CustomFieldValueItem methods getParent and setParent have been marked as deprecated. Use the getParentUniqueID and setParentUniqueID methods instead.
• JSON output from MPXJ now includes more detail for custom field definitions read from MPP files.
• When reading a PMXML file, populate the Early/Late Start/Finish date attributes from the Remaining Early/Late Start/Finish date attributes.
• Fix an issue reading WBS ID for P3 and SureTrak schedules.

Version 12.8.1

• Improve reading resource assignments from certain FastTrack FTS files.

Version 12.8.0

• Add experimental support for reading Deltek Open Plan BK3 files.
• Implemented the Relation.Builder class.
• Marked the Relation(Task,Task,RelationType,Duration) constructor as deprecated, use the Relation.Builder class instead.
• Marked the RelationContainer.addPredecessor(Task,Task,RelationType,Duration) method as deprecated, use the RelationContainer.addPredecessor(Relation.Builder) method instead.
• Marked the Task.addPredecessor(Task,RelationType,Duration) method as deprecated, use the Task.addPredecessor(Relation.Builder) method instead.
• Add a notes attribute to the Relation class and ensure that it is read from and written to P6 schedules.
• Read the Relationship Lag Calendar setting from Phoenix 5 files. (Contributed by Rohit Sinha)
• Don't write a material label to an MSPDI file for a resource which isn't a material.
• Update representation of Work Variance when writing MSPDI files to more closely match output from Microsoft Project.
• Updated to ensure that when schedules are read from XER files or P6 databases, labor and nonlabor work amounts are combined for the Actual, Remaining and Planned work attributes. This is now consistent with the existing behavior when reading PMXML files.
• Added support for new Task attributes Actual Work Labor, Actual Work Nonlabor, Remaining Work Labor, Remaining Work Nonlabor, Planned Work Labor, Planned Work Nonlabor, when reading and writing P6 schedules.
• Update default readAll method on reader classes to ensure that if the reader is unable to read any schedule data, an empty list is returned rather than a list containing null.
• Ensure that Task Start and Finish dates are both the same when reading milestones from PMXML files, and that the correct date is used depending on whether we have a Start Milestone or a Finish Milestone.

Version 12.7.0

• Added support for reading and writing the project property Baseline Calendar Name to and from MPP and MSPDI files.
• Ensure Start Variance and Finish Variance are read from and written to MSPDI files in the correct format.
• Improve accuracy of large Work Variance values read from MSPDI files.
• Add support for the Calendar GUID attribute, which is read from MPP and MSPDI files, and written to MSPDI files.
• Ensure Activity Codes are available when reading Phoenix PPX files even if they are also being used to construct the task hierarchy.
• Ensure Activity Codes Values are populated when reading Phoenix PPX files. (Contributed by Rohit Sinha)
• When writing an MSPDI file, derive the TimephasedData Unit attribute from the duration of the timephased data item.
• Fixed an issue with the ProjectCalendar.getPreviousWorkFinish method when called with a time which was already at the end of a period of work.
• Ensure that the proj_node_flag is set for the root WBS node when writing XER files.
