Project.ResourceGroups property

Gets all of the resource-based group definitions. ResourceGroups is a collection of Group objects.

public GroupCollection ResourceGroups { get; }

Examples

Shows how to read resource groups.

var project = new Project(DataDir + "ReadGroupDefinitionData.mpp");

Console.WriteLine("Resource Groups Count: " + project.ResourceGroups.Count);
var resGroup = project.TaskGroups.ToList()[1];
Console.WriteLine("Resource Group Name: " + resGroup.Name);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Group Criteria count: " + resGroup.GroupCriteria.Count);
Console.WriteLine("\n************* Retrieving Resource Group's Criterion information *************");
var resCriterion = resGroup.GroupCriteria.ToList()[0];
Console.WriteLine("Resource Criterion Field: " + resCriterion.Field);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Criterion GroupOn: " + resCriterion.GroupOn);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Criterion Cell Color: " + resCriterion.CellColor);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Criterion Pattern: " + resCriterion.Pattern);

Console.WriteLine("\n*********** Retrieving Resource Criterion's Font Information ***********");
Console.WriteLine("Resource Font Name: " + resCriterion.Font.FontFamily);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Font Size: " + resCriterion.Font.Size);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Font Style: " + resCriterion.Font.Style);
Console.WriteLine("Resource Ascending/Descending: " + resCriterion.Ascending);
