RE: [PHP] Algorithm for repeating calendar events

That's a good question, Michael-- I don't really know if libmcal can be used on Win32... Is it made to be compiled under VC++? If it can't, you should be able to achieve similar results by storing events in a DB, and using the Date_Calc class: http://www.phpinsider.com/php/code/Date_Calc/ Good luck! -----Original Message----- From: Michael Hall [mailto:mike@prairiefirewebdesign.com] Sent: Friday, July 13, 2001 9:13 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] Algorithm for repeating calendar events This libmcal sounds like something I've been needing for another project. Unfortunately, I'm on a Windows platform. Is there any way to get this functionality on Win32? I downloaded the tar.gz file with teh libmcal library in it, but I have no idea what I would do next. > -----Original Message----- > From: Matthew Loff [mailto:matt@willetts.com] > Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 1:43 PM > To: 'Rasmus Lerdorf'; 'Reuben D Budiardja' > Cc: 'php php' > Subject: RE: [PHP] Algorithm for repeating calendar events > > > > libmcal is a pain in the butt to set up, but once it's set up, it has > some great features...
