commons-pdb

A Java library for reading PalmOS PDB database files.

Features

• Lightweight, only requires Java 1.7 or higher, no other dependencies.
• Android compatible, requires API level 19 (KitKat) or higher.
• Available at Maven Central

This library offers converters for reading the contents of the most common PDB files:

• Address book
• Datebook
• Todo-List
• Memo
• Notepad (except on Android)

Custom converters can be added for other PDB files. Also, all PDB file contents can be read as raw byte arrays.

Example

This example reads a calendar PDB file, and converts the records to ScheduleRecord objects using a ScheduleConverter.

try (PdbFile pdb = new PdbFile(new File("calendar.pdb")) {
    PdbDatabase<ScheduleRecord, CategoryAppInfo> database = pdb.readDatabase(new ScheduleConverter());

    System.out.printf("Name: %s\n", database.getName());

    List<Category> cats = database.getAppInfo().getCategories();
    for (int ix = 0; ix < cats.size(); ix++) {
        System.out.printf("Category %d: %s\n", ix, cats.get(ix));
    }

    for (ScheduleRecord entry : database.getRecords()) {
        System.out.println(entry);
    }
}

See the online documentation for API details.

There is also a pdbconverter tool offering a GUI and a command line, for converting PDB files.
