blackberry - Number of Events in EventList -

i need find number of events stored in eventlist events extracted calendar.

there no size() method found.

below code

eventlist eventlist = (eventlist)pim.getinstance().openpimlist(         pim.event_list, pim.read_write); enumeration eventslist = eventlist.items(eventlist.starting, startdateevent, enddateevent, false); 

how can find number of events in eventslist enumeration?

unfortunately, if want number of events between start , end dates, you'll need count them. enumeration doesn't provide interface getting number of elements.

 eventlist eventlist = (eventlist)pim.getinstance().openpimlist(        pim.event_list, pim.read_write);  enumeration eventslist = eventlist.items(eventlist.starting, startdateevent, enddateevent, false);  int numevents = 0;  while (eventslist.hasmoreelements()) {     eventslist.nextelement();     numevents++;  }  system.out.println("there " + numevents + " events in list"); 

if still want iterate on list after counting, you'll need new enumeration object calling eventlist.items() again.

if, however, want number of events in entire eventlist, can size casting full list blackberryeventlist:

from the blackberry api docs:

any instance of eventlist retrieved pim.openpimlist() when specified pimlisttype==pim.event_list instance of blackberryeventlist , can casted blackberryeventlist, if desired, in order use rim extension functionality.

so, should cast list blackberryeventlist (or blackberrypimlist), , can this:

eventlist eventlist = (eventlist)pim.getinstance().openpimlist(             pim.event_list, pim.read_write);  if (eventlist instanceof blackberryeventlist) {  // should succeed     blackberryeventlist bbeventlist = (blackberryeventlist)eventlist;     int sizeoflist = bbeventlist.size(); }
