Mindoo - Demo application for Domino JNA Views to play with 
By Karsten Lehmann | 7/18/24 11:42 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Serdar Basegmez
Today I attended the "Developer Variety Hour" webinar of OpenNTF and did a demo of the new Virtual View API of Domino JNA.
I built a small web application that combines a Sunburst diagram (taken from the D3 website, enhanced by a training session with Anthropics Claude AI chat :-) ) with a categorized view, built on top of a Bootstrap 5 table.
Mindoo - The pain of reading data as a Domino developer - and solutions
By Karsten Lehmann | 6/20/24 3:04 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Serdar Basegmez
On my endless path of reinventing the wheel regarding Domino APIs, my latest adventure has once again led me to find efficient and powerful ways to query Domino data. For many years, this topic has been a pain point for me. Back in the IBM Design Partner program, I wrote many entries in the discussions database, asking IBM core development for better and faster ways to read Domino data.
Configure Eclipse 4.6.x with HCL Notes 12.0.1 FP1
By Karsten Lehmann | 11/18/22 4:07 PM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse
Once again I had to ask HCL development for setup instructions how to launch the HCL Notes Standard Client from an Eclipse IDE, this time for Notes 12.0.1 FP1.
The instructions I had gotten earlier for Notes 10 have not changed much (I think there's one additional VM argument at the end of the list), but enough so that they did not work anymore.
New release of Open Eclipse Update Site to fix issues with Win/64 Notes Client 12.0.2
By Karsten Lehmann | 11/18/22 5:13 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Roberto Boccadoro
As Jesse blogged there are some issues in the new Windows 64 Bit Notes Client 12.0.2 that break the "Import Local Update Site" functionality of the standard Update Site template of Domino.
To fix this and other issues, I just uploaded a new release of the Open Eclipse Update Site on OpenNTF.
Domino JNA version 0.9.48: API to read/write Notes workspace, some formula magic and QueryResultsProcessor API
By Karsten Lehmann | 6/1/22 1:18 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Roberto Boccadoro
Today we released version 0.9.48 of Domino JNA as OSGi plugin for XPages developers and on Maven Central.
Here is a list of new features:
API to read and write the Notes workspace (read, create and modify pages and icons, change page order, move replicas on top etc.)
Formula execution now supports more than 64k of return data
API to apply security to formula execution (e.g. prevent Notes.ini changes)
API for QueryResultsProcessor (produces JSON and views)
Java 8 date/time support for NotesNote.replaceItemValue(...)
New utility class to format view data as markdown table
Added method to get agent design doc UNID
Added hierarchical recycling (parent/child auto recycle)
Ralf Petter’s blog about Notes, Eclipse and Expeditor back online
By Karsten Lehmann | 12/21/21 2:37 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse
Yesterday I noticed that Ralf Petter's blog "Everything about IT" is not online anymore. Ralf died years ago from cancer and his blog contains invaluable tips around Notes, Eclipse and Expeditor development.
In June 2017 when I heard about his death, I downloaded all blog articles and kept them on my local disk.
Now that the official blog is gone, I uploaded them to our server, added them to the Google index and made them available here
News Update from Mindoo Land: Domino JNA / JNX
By Karsten Lehmann | 7/26/21 7:41 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse
In a pandemic (in particular with two young kids of 5 and 7 years), times flies by even faster than in regular times, so it's no surprise that this blog has not seen many updates for a very long time.
Just wanted to let you know that we are still very busy, leveraging and improving the Domino AppDev platform.
Change OSGI_HTTP_DYNAMIC_BUNDLES in Notes.ini from LotusScript
By Karsten Lehmann | 1/23/20 11:19 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by John Oldenburger
Call this agent with Agent.RunOnServer to change the value of OSGI_HTTP_DYNAMIC_BUNDLES on a Domino server without using a server configuration document and a server reboot. OSSetEnvironmentVariableExt with isSoft=true lets the method only check an internal hard list for forbidden variables.
Configure Eclipse 4.6.x with HCL Notes 10
By Karsten Lehmann | 11/4/19 11:24 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by John Oldenburger
For years, whenever I needed to configure an Eclipse IDE for IBM Notes plugin development, I used Mikkel Heisterberg's instructions on his blog. Since I currently have a customer requirement to update an existing plugin that we built for them years ago to a newer Java version (1.8), I tried to set up Eclipse 2019-09 with HCL Notes 10.0.1FP2, but failed.
