* (org-agenda-to-appt) with sexp org-diary-class entry?

None of my events which are scheduled with org-diary-class sexp entries
seem to get pushed with (org-agenda-to-appt) (for triggering alarms
etc.).  Is this simply a limitation of sexp org-diary-class?  Is there
are workaround, or would it be better to simply schedule such events as
(infinitely) repeating?

out of curiosity I tried out that org-diary-class thing.  (Org-mode
version 8.3beta)

The doc says about org-diary-class:

#v+
This function is obsolete since ;
use `org-class' instead.
#v-

So I used org-class.  I don't know if this really matters.  If not then
please just take it as a side note.

With the subtree

#v+
* org-class appointment
  <%%(org-class 2014 12 1 2014 12 23 5 )>
#v-

in one of my agenda-files I get the respective line

#v+
  appts:      org-class appointment
#v-

in the agenda.

Does this help?


Best regards,  Marco

Do your entries have a time in hour and minutes of the day?

Thanks, Marco. Well, it at least helps to update me to a non-obsolete
sexp method.

I have no idea how to check what's actually been pushed to `appt` to see
whether the updated org-class really behaves differently to
org-diary-class in this respect.  (So I'll have to see tomorrow how
`appt` behaves.)

You can use

M-x appt-delete

for scanning through your current appointments.  For each appointment
you will be asked for deletion.  Saying 'no' just keeps the appointment.

You might even look at variable `appt-time-msg-list' or use the
following function to see a list of your current appointments.

#v+
(defun mw-appt-display-list ()
  "List the current appointments.

  This is an amendment to the appt-family of functions.  Sometimes
  you might want to know the upcoming appts."
  (interactive)
  (if (not (boundp 'appt-time-msg-list))
      (message "`appt-time-msg-list' not even bound.  Consider M-x org-agenda-to-appt.")
    (if appt-time-msg-list
        (let ((tmp-msg-list appt-time-msg-list)
              (message-string ""))
          (dolist (element tmp-msg-list)
            (setq message-string
                  (concat message-string
                          (prin1-to-string
                           (substring-no-properties (cadr element) 0))
                          "\n")))
          (if (< 0 (length message-string))
              (message (substring message-string 0 -1))))
      (message "No appts scheduled for today."))))
#v-


Best wishes,  Marco
