Google calendar events have extended properties that can be used to attach name/value pairs to an event. We are implementing a collaborative calendar application that uses those extended properties to attach extra information to the event. As recommended by Google, we use the Android CalendarProvider to read and create new events. When we create a new event we need to add some extended properties to it but we just realised that the calendar provider doesn't allow writing CalendarContract.ExtendedProperties , if we try we get the following error: Only sync adapters may write using content://com

My C# app syncs files from a remote document management system to a filesystem. The document management system has metadata (date of last audit, secrecy, author...) which is associated with each file but not stored WITHIN each file. The files can be anything (bmp, xwd, pdf, unknown binary) I want to make these metadata visible on the local Windows filesystem. But I can't store metadata WITHIN each file. For instance, changing the secrecy of a file must NOT modify the checksum of the file. What is the best way to store this metadata? I have heard about NTFS extended file attributes , is it

I'm interested in getting more information from a file using python. I know that using os.stat (such as below) returns information on the file, but I'd like to get other attributes from the file such as 'Where from?' os.stat(filename) posix.stat_result(st_mode=33184, st_ino=131691855, st_dev=16777220L, st_nlink=1, st_uid=501, st_gid=20, st_size=174241, st_atime=1445046864, st_mtime=1445045836, st_ctime=1445045836) However, these aren't the attributes I'm interested. I'm interested in getting all of the below attributes (in particular 'Where from') How can I get the 'Where from' field? I've

Problem at hand Our C# Windows application uses EWS Managed API 2.0 to create appointments in a user's calendar. Each appointment has an extended property with a unique value. It later locates an appointment using FindItems and an ItemView . Users experience significant delays the first time this search is performed. Subsequent response times are entirely acceptable. ("first time" is a little vague here, because users may experience the delay again later in the day) // locate ID of appointment where extended property value equals 1234: var filter = new Ews.SearchFilter.IsEqualTo

I am writing a simple CMS for a client's database. There are 12 tables and they need to manage all of the data in 4 of them. I set up a dynamic data project (Linq-to-SQL as that's what I'm most familiar with) and the first page makes all 12 tables available for edit as it should. These are in an enumerable list called visibleTables. Next I went into SSMS and created an extended property called UserEdit and set it to 0 or 1 depending on whether the user should see it on that screen. What I would love to do is filter the visibleTables list by that extended property but don't know how to. I am

I want to add some custom attributes in SqlServer connection string, something like this: Integrated Security=SSPI;Extended Properties="SomeAttr=SomeValue";Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=DB;Data Source=SERVER And then get that attribute in sql. for example SELECT SOME_FUNCTION('SomeAttr') There is no generalized method to pass custom connection string attributes via Client APIs and retrieve using T-SQL. You have a number of alternatives, though. Below are a few. Method 1 : Use the Application Name keyword in the connection string to pass up to 128 characters and retrieve with the
