At ICON UK I delivered two sessions, one on OpenNTF Domino API and one, with John Cooper, on development OSGi plugins. Both sessions were well attended and jam-packed with content. In addition, as platinum sponsors, it was a busy time for all of us at Intec. It was great to catch up with old friends […]

Nathan has uploaded a new release of OpenNTF Domino API. There are a few significant differences in the upload this time. Firstly there is a separate install for Designer Client and Domino Server. That’s to minimise the footprint for the server. Those who have used M4.5 may have noticed the Javadoc support was lost, because

Last week Jesse Gallagher blogged about using enums in a combo box. For those who are not familiar with enums, if you’ve started using Java it’s well worth reviewing the article where I covered them. Thankfully I was involved in a chat around that topic with Jesse and Nathan. I had previously written code to

Currently I’m in the process of going through ensuring documentation is available for all methods in OpenNTF Domino API. It’s going to take some time, not least because Javadocs need adding for all lotus.domino methods, as well as the additional methods we’ve added. One of the benefits is I’m finding out about methods that have

Since M3 we’ve had Listeners implemented in the OpenNTF Domino API. Although there’s potential for even greater implementation of listeners through the API, they’re already extremely powerful. Think about triggering specific code whenever a document is saved from XPages. The concept is very powerful and there has been an example in the Demo database for

Earlier this week I had the pleasure to present with Martin Jinoch at Engage in Nertherlands. It was good to present on the API with someone who’s main involvement has been as a consumer, though very much an active member of discussions on existing and new functionality. Here are the slides, which included more recent

Two weeks from now I’ll be speaking at Engage.ug, along with a host of illustrious names from IBM and the community. I’ll be speaking with Martin Jinoch about the OpenNTF Domino API. After speaking on the API solo at various user groups and during speedgeeking at IBM Connect, it will be interesting to co-host the

Here are the slides and demo app Mike McGarel and I used for our session on Tuesday, “It’s Not Infernal: Dante’s Nine Circles of XPages Heaven”. Below is the link to a zip file containing the demo applications. The Infernotes.nsf version will work if you don’t have the OpenNTF Domino API. The one suffixed “OpenNTFDomino”

Recently I’ve been working with the Name Picker where I was using the Name Picker to select values that would then be used for Readers and Authors fields. I noticed that although it picks from address books, the names are stored by default in abbreviated format, e.g. Paul Withers/MyCompany rather than canonical format, e.g. CN=Paul Withers/O=MyCompany. This
