iPhone: Adding Events to the Calendar
May 12, 2009 . Posted in Uncategorized.
Since you've reached this blog post then you already know that there
is no API for controlling the iPhone calendar.
IMHO this is because of a blend of security reasons, mobile me and
notification issues…
There might be a workaround though but I couldn't be bothered to test
it: what if you configure the iPhone calendar to sync with a CalDAV
capable server and then your app simply posts the events to that
CalDAV server?!
In this scenario the Calendar will eventually retrieve the entries and
you'd be set. Considering that Google's Calendar web app supports
CalDAV it should be fairly straightforward.
Has anyone tried this?
Cheers…
