How To: Read Phoenix Project Manager files

Phoenix Project Manager uses PPX files.

Reading PPX files

The simplest way to read a PPX file is to use the UniversalProjectReader:

JavaC#

package org.mpxj.howto.read;

import net.sf.mpxj.ProjectFile;
import net.sf.mpxj.reader.UniversalProjectReader;

public class Phoenix
{
    public void read() throws Exception
    {
        UniversalProjectReader reader = new UniversalProjectReader();
        ProjectFile project = reader.read("my-sample.ppx");
    }
}

using MPXJ.Net;

namespace MPXJ.Samples.HowToRead;

public class Phoenix
{
    public void Read()
    {
        var reader = new UniversalProjectReader();
        var project = reader.Read("my-sample.ppx");
    }
}

You can work directly with the PhoenixReader by replacing UniversalProjectReader with PhoenixReader, although this offers no particular advantage as there are no additional configuration settings available on the PhoenixReader class.
