How To: Read ProjectLibre files

ProjectLibre writes schedule data to POD files. MPXJ can read POD files written by ProjectLibre version 1.5.5 and later versions.

Reading POD files

The simplest way to read a POD file is to use the UniversalProjectReader:

import net.sf.mpxj.ProjectFile;
import net.sf.mpxj.reader.UniversalProjectReader;

...

UniversalProjectReader reader = new UniversalProjectReader();
ProjectFile project = reader.read("my-sample.pod");

You can work directly with the ProjectLibreReader by replacing UniversalProjectReader with ProjectLibreReader, although this offers no particular advantage as there are no additional configuration settings available on the ProjectLibreReader class.
