Hi! I noticed an unpleasent behaviour of the calendar module.
Everything works excelent for me, till I try to find appointments or any items on the last day of the month while there is an item (appointment or whatever) on the first day of the next month.

Here's an example:

import calendar, time
firstday = time.mktime((2009,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0))
lastday=firstday - 3600*24

a=calendar.open()
b=a.add_appointment()
b.content='FIRST DAY TEST EVENT'
b.set_time(firstday+3600,firstday+7200)
b.commit()

b= a.daily_instances(firstday)
day1=[]
for i in b:
        #if i.values()[1]<=firstday + 3600*24:
        day1.append(i.values()[0])
print day1

print "Now notice that no events with the same id like previously should be displayed"
b= a.daily_instances(lastday)
day2=[]
for i in b:
        #if i.values()[1]<=lastday + 3600*24:
        day2.append(i.values()[0])
print day2

For everyone having the same problem I found a temporary solution working even if the event is in a repeat loop. Simply uncomment lines from my code and do a tab before next command

Greatings, Ranza

Hi Ranza,

I would try doing an example for you but I'm in a hurry now

Maybe when I come back I can do this


EDIT: Sorry, you really used daily_instances.


Hope it helps,

Rafael.

[Ranza]

well, I'm using daily_instances method, find_instances wouldn't work here since it needs a substring

[Rafael T.]

Sorry, Ranza

I swear I saw find_instances in the code

I'm a bit lazy yet, since I have just woke up.

Sorry for the wrong answer, when I come back I'll try to do an example for you!


BR,

So you think that I'm not using it properly?
I think that I do and it's a bug.

Anyway I found a temporary walkthru for this bug, so you don't have to invent anything new. Better notify those guy's coding Pys60

[bogdan.galiceanu]

If you strongly believe this is a bug you can check here if it has already been reported and if it hasn't, you can submit it here.

[Rafael T.]

Yes, you should report the bug on the link Bogdan provided, so they can fix it and get it to work on the next version.

I was going to do another code with a improved solution, but as you said you have already done this, it won't be necessary


BR,

Rafael.

Well, would someone report this bug for me cause I don't have an account on source forge but this what I've written here should be enough for bug description
