Calendar Lock PEA: Week View

Version Log

From 0.3-beta to 0.4-beta

• Week view
• Status property: strike through for canceled, question mark for tentative in EventInfo
• Recurrence Rule (additional to daily, weekly, monthly, yearly recurrence rules with end by count or date):
  • Several specific weekdays for monthly and yearly rules like the "second Monday" and "the third-last Wednesday" of a month and weekdays for weekly rules
  • Intervals like "every two days" or "every three years"
  • Several recurrences on specific dates (RDATE)
  • exception dates of the recurrence rule
• Character encoding with Circumflex as described in RFC 6868
• Bug fixes:
  • Import of ics files with count property counted one occurrence too little
  • Imported calendars without a name were all named equal
  • Events starting at 0:00 were displayed at 1:00
  • Monthly events at 31. of a month were displayed incorrectly in special cases (month view: two occurrences of the event)
• MonthPanel: day of week names localized

From 0.4-beta to 1.0 (stable)

• Usability: Property setting for PEA (background color, font size), settings for calendar (start time, colors...)
• Usability: Remembers last location and size, Drag&Drop of calendar files in password dialog
• Bug fixes:
  • Several click on OK button when decryption works resulted in adding calendars several times
  • If an event starts at 0:00h, the end time was displayed incorrect (one hour earlier)
  • Before 1h and after 23h, the info window was not opened when the mouse entered the button. Also at this time the events were not opened by a mouse click
  • Line of hour 23 was above the events after 23h
  • End times after 23h were displayed incorrect (until 23:00)
  • Reading date-times with TZID and other parameters after TZID failed
  • Only VALUE or TZID could be considered, now both of them, other parameters are ignored
• Accessibility: Accessible description (English only) for all items and buttons if there is no tool tip text, enable basic swing accessibility support for most classes (still incomplete)
• GUI: Small modifications
  • extra background color of day view and week view if date is today
  • Panel to set recurrence beside event setting
• Code: JUnit test class for ICalDateTimeHelper, Test Class for ReadICal

From 1.0 (stable) to 1.1 (beta)

• Select whether one file per calendar or one file for all calendars
• Default directory can be selected, in which the calendar files are stored

From 1.1 (beta) to 1.2 (stable)

• Location of event as defined in RFC 5545
• Authorize only once to a cloud provider (performance)
• Cloud files are no longer selected per default
• Manage remembered cloud files: add to/remove from properties
• Hide and show calendars
• Bug fix: Merging calendars with equal names and save in cloud without saving calendars, resulted in an empty file in the cloud.
• Bug fix: Setting the cloud properties deleted the properties under certain circumstances
• Fixes for several minor bugs (certain invalid calendar formats resulted in freezing, empty fields in event infos, save button did not always disappear when content was saved, spelling mistakes...)
• Remove calendar: If the calendar is in an extra files, securely deletes (wipes) local files on demand and deletes files in the cloud if necessary (but not equally secure)
• Menu: Display the files in which the calendars are stored
• Minor changes in the graphical user interface (show/hide password, select files to upload, better adjusted panel sizes...)

From 1.2 to 1.3

• Libraries for cloud support were replaced (sardine, apache libraries...). Thanks to this, the program runs now with Java 8 until Java 15 and probably further versions
• You can choose algorithms: Catena or Argon2 as KDF, Threefish or AES-256 as cipher, Blake2b or SHA-3 as hash.
• Search function: Search for strings in calendars.
• Graphical user interface and accessibility: Larger buttons and checkboxes, accessibilty from keyboard.
• Several minor bugfixes: Problems arising from the use of multiple monitor system and multiple operating systems, problems with accessing and using the cloud.
• Small usability improvements: Deleting files by right click, select/deselect all if more than 12 files, warning of long execution time of cloud processes, error message in case of a crash, toaster to show synchronization infos, indication of a running cloud process, improvements for file import...

From 1.3 to 1.4

• Parameters of the key derivation function can be adjusted to own devices and different security needs.
• Key files can be added as a second security factor to the password.
• Option to automatically check for updates. This also takes minor updates into account.
• Setting of events improved: properties arranged in tabs (main, more options, recurrence).
• Website (URL) property of events, open website per button.
• Several minor bugfixes and small improvements

From 1.4 to 1.5

• Simple task manager to organize todos (iCalendars VTODO) beside the calendar
• Changing and installing languages. Different language can be installed subsequently, additional languages: TK, ES, FR, RU
• Setting of algorithms and parameters in one dialog
• Choosable default key file, no "short file" warning for previously generated key files
• Show all unsupported components or properties when importing a calendar

• Bugfix: When merging two versions of a calendar, tasks could get lost
• Several minor bugfixes, performance and GUI improvements

From 1.6 to 1.7

• Alarm: An alarm can be set for events and to-dos, which reminds of the event by a sound or a display when the application is open.
• Keyfile only mode: Instead of a password, the data can also be opened with a keyfile only.
• Direct start mode: The calendars are opened directly (in keyfile only mode) without password input and without file selection.
• If the user's default language can be installed, the user is asked to install the language pack
• Update checker checks also for new language packs
• Export single an event or to-do as readable text or ics file
• A few minor improvements and bugfixes
