This week I’ve been working with a significantly re-organised repository of OpenNTF Domino API. There were a few issues and it prompted me to finally get round to installing the latest fix packs for Notes and Domino. They had come out just before Engage, where I was speaking, so I chose not to upgrade then […]
These days virtually all my work on XPages and Custom Controls is done in the source pane. But by default when you open the design elements, they open to the Design pane. Wouldn’t it be great if it opened to the Source pane? The good thing about the Package Explorer is that by right-clicking on

In more recent projects I’ve written my agents in Java. Although it meant copying some code across (and in some cases, rewriting it a bit because the agents were not using OpenNTF Domino API), it helped keep muscle memory. However, I encountered some strange behaviour when refreshing design of the databases. LotusScript agents were fine,

In the previous two parts I covered the background of XOTS, using a basic tasklet to return a result, and using a basic tasklet to run a background task allowing the user to continue working with the application while the background task completed. In that example the background task did not take a huge amount

Yesterday I blogged introducing where we are with XOTS in OpenNTF Domino API, plus a short example about how to create a tasklet and call it. The example was a bit “hello world” – why would you want to call a tasklet to get the current username, when it’s possible and much easier to do

At this point I think it’s worthwhile backtracking and giving some background on DOTS, which many XPages developers will not have utilised. DOTS came in with 8.5.3 and

Last week I delivered a session at Engage with Daniele Vistalli entitled Jedi and Sith: OpenNTF Domino API and CrossWorlds. The session covered different aspects related to developments within OpenNTF Domino API over the last year, one of which Nathan T Freeman covered in greater depth during his session entitled The Graph Revolution. It finally

This week IBM released the twelfth 9.0.1 release of the Extension Library. It’s great to see the inclusion of mapValuePicker and collectionValuePicker tags. That has proved the completion of a journey almost two years in the making, since I first blogged a tutorial series on doing this, back in May 2013. At the time they
