Universal.Oracle.Primavera.P6

A comprehensive library for interacting with Oracle Primavera P6 data structures, supporting versions 8 through 19. This package provides strongly-typed models and utilities for efficient handling of P6 project management data.

Features

• Support for Primavera P6 versions 8 to 19
• Strongly-typed models for all P6 data structures
• Efficient XER file parsing
• Extensible design for custom data handling
• Serialization support for interoperability with other tools and languages

Quickstart

XerFileParser

Utility for parsing XER files exported from Primavera P6.

var parser = new XerFileParser();
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream("project_data.xer", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
    XerFile xerFile = parser.Parse(fs);
    Console.WriteLine($"Project Name: {xerFile.ProjectName}");
    Console.WriteLine($"P6 Version: {xerFile.Version}");
}

Advanced Usage

Custom Table Handling

Extend the library's functionality by creating custom table handlers:

public class CustomResourceTable : Table<IResource>
{
    public IEnumerable<IResource> GetCriticalResources()
    {
        return Rows.Where(r => r.IsCritical);
    }
}

// Usage
var customResourceTable = new CustomResourceTable
{
    Name = "RSRC",
    Rows = xerFile.GetTable<IResource>().Rows
};
var criticalResources = customResourceTable.GetCriticalResources();

Version-Specific Logic

Implement version-specific behavior using the XerFile's Version property:

if (xerFile.Version >= new Version("15.0"))
{
    // Logic for P6 version 15 and above
}
else
{
    // Logic for earlier versions
}

Data Models

The library includes strongly-typed models for all P6 data structures, including:

• ProjectWorkBreakdownStructure
• ResourceCategoryType
• ResourceCategoryValue
• ResourceResourceCategory
• WorkBreakdownStructureMemo
• Task
• Resource
• ... and many more

Each model is version-aware and implements the appropriate interface (e.g., IProjectWorkBreakdownStructure) for consistent access across versions. Due to version-specific differences, these interfaces represent the lowest-common denominator.
