# This function prints the response received.
def printResponse(responseList):
    if len(responseList) > 0:
        for response in responseList:
            print "", response

        print " None"
  
# The main function.
mySchedule = system.user.getSchedule("Always")
if mySchedule != None and mySchedule.getType() == "basic schedule":
    mySchedule.setObserveHolidays(False)
    mySchedule.setName("NewSchedule")
    response = system.user.addSchedule(mySchedule)
    warnings = response.getWarns()
    print "Warnings are:"
    printResponse(warnings)
      
    errors = response.getErrors()
    print "Errors are:"
    printResponse(errors)
      
    infos = response.getInfos()
