As I blogged when 8.5.3 went live, Dojo is now packaged as 1.5.1 as physical files on the server for iNotes and 1.6.1 in a plugin. So how do you inspect what's provided in the plugin? That was the focus on one of the comments on the post I made. Well, Nathan Freeman and Serdar Basegmaz contributed a project to OpenNTF to allow you to run it in debug mode - Dojo Debug kit for Domino 8.5.3. You can use that plugin, import the source code into Eclipse or Domino for example. But you can also import the jar from ...
XPages/Eclipse: Java Editor Line Wrap
One of the frustrating things about a clean install of DDE or Eclipse is trying to remember what settings you had and where to set them. For example, on a laptop I had when I opened a Custom Control, the Custom Controls section in the Applications pane was expanded; when I opened a view, the Views section was expanded.

Towards the end of last year we were asked about undertaking a Notes client plug-in development project. At the time my plug-in development experience was zero. Apart from a brief look at the source code of the Extension Library source code, my only other Eclipse experience was from about six years ago using the XML editors. And the sum total of my Java experience was four hours in evening classes about six years ago, that brief investigation of the XPages Extension Library and about two years experience of Server-Side JavaScript. I know that SSJS is not Java, but I list that in my ...
While at EntwicklerCamp a couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to share a couple of usability enhancements which seem to have slipped under the radar of some developers. The first is a useful resource for developers using XPages. As many will know, SVN is possible within Domino Designer now and from all the demos recently it is being made easier for 8.5.3. But SVN only allows you to control versions of design elements checked in. I for one have often been in the situation where I am frustratedly trying to get some code working and end up screwing my ...
