Plan/Manual/Import and Export
Introduction
Import
Plan can import data from other project managers using the Microsoft Project Exchange (MPXJ) Java library found here. MPXJ supports a number of formats, as of relase 2.5 only mpp, mpx and planner is tested with Plan.
To make things work the following must be in working order:
- The mime types for MS Project and Planner must be defined in your file assosiations:
- application/vnd.ms-project: *.mpp, *.mpx
- application/x-planner: *.planner
- The mpxj.jar must be present on your system in a place java can find it. Alternativly you can define CLASSPATH or PLAN_CLASSPATH to point to it.
- MPXJ also requires the Apache POI - the Java API for Microsoft Documents. This is included in the MPXJ download, but can also be found here.
