Regardless of recent announcements, XPages is still my preferred option for standalone rapid application web development. Once an appropriate level of understanding of the lifecycle is gained, there’s a comfortable level of logic in how it works. With controller classes in Java and XPages that contain predominantly Expression Language and short SSJS calls to the […]

As others like Johnny Oldenburger have blogged, Notes 9.0.1 FP10 IF2 is out now. This fixes a number of Designer-related issues, including the problem with the Display panel in the Java debugger I encountered when I first installed. One point to be aware of is, as ever, to check <Notes>\framework\rcp\deploy\jvm.properties for the vmarg.Xmx and vmarg.Xms

In the previous part I covered setting up Node-RED, in my scenario as a Docker image. Triggering Domino code on schedule is surprisingly straightforward, requiring just two nodes. The first is the inject node and the second is the http request node. The inject node allows a process to be scheduled. The payload for the

It’s great to see the amount of activity in the #Domino2025 Jam forum. But just a few thoughts from my point of view on the vision area: Take a step back and think beyond a specific use case requirement Don’t focus on detail of an individual feature, focus on direction Back it up with justifications

Some years ago I developed an XPages application that heavily used ODA. In fact, it was the first I used Xots in. At the time, I needed a scheduled agent to send email reminders. I was frustrated that the only option if I wanted code in the NSF was a Java agent, which required me

Recently I’ve been digging into the Watson Conversation APIs. With Java being my language of choice, the natural starting point was the Watson Brewery demo which integrates with Watson Workspace. This in itself was a learning experience as I finally stepped beyond the world of Eclipse to use IntellJ IDEA, as mentioned in the ReadMe.

Those of us who have been working with Domino and Java for some time know that one of the big strengths over LotusScript is the host of standard Java libraries that can be utilised. If you want better string or number handling etc, you have Apache Commons libraries. If you want Excel export, you have

One of the aspects of Social Connections that I meant to include in my blog post summary but forgot was the issues around wifi access. No matter what a venue says about their readiness, it’s an aspect that I’m sure is virtually impossible for conference organisers to check or test beforehand. So if they say
