<gd:where valueString=""/>
</entry>
</gd:entryLink>
</gd:recurrenceException>

We can get the dates of this exception :
> exception.entry_link.entry.when[0].start_time
Ok, no problem.

Now, I want to create an exception:
> my_exception = gdata.calendar.RecurrenceException()

If I print the content of this exception:
> print my_exception

I get :
<ns0:recurrenceException specialized="True"
xmlns:ns0="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" />
(very small content ....)

I can't add a "when" attribute :
>
my_exception.entry_link.entry.when.append(gcalendar.When(start_time='20070523T12
0000',
end_time='20070523T180000'))

The error :
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'entry'

So, a "new" and "empty" exception does not contain entry_link and entry.

I don't found any documentation how to play with exceptions....
But I think there is a problem.

David.

Hi David,

I don't think that this is an issue because the library will not create the 
entry in
the entry_link for you. I think this will work if you add one missing step 
(starred).

>>> my_exception = gdata.calendar.RecurrenceException()
* >>> my_exceptions.entry_link.entry = gdata.calendar.CalendarEventEntry()
>>>
my_exception.entry_link.entry.when.append(gcalendar.When(start_time='20070523T12
0000',
end_time='20070523T180000'))

Thank you,

Jeff
