161 | @IsRichTextEmpty and LotusScript/Java equivalentsBen Langhinrichs6939 - 05 2007 (6) Even having a rough way to do this in Midas, I would really like to see a simple @formula (and matching LotusScript) method for determining if there was anything in the rich text. Even better would be if it took an argument that specified whether whitespace was included, so you ... |
55 | Programming API for the Mail Database, Personal Address Book and Domino DirectoryJens Winkelmann375 - 08 2008 (6) I wish we have a programming API to access and edit the mail database, the personal address book and the Domino Directory The API must support LotusScript and Java. It is not professional to create a document with field and than find ... |
44 | Open up all the document properties to Java/LSAndy Harris754 - 06 2008 (1) The Document/NotesDocument classes currently allow read access to things like creation date, last modified, etc.
However, there are a lot more properties to documents than that (when created in the current file to name one).
These should be made available as properties like the others. |
41 | Book Proposal: Domino goes mobile: HTML5, CSS3 and AjaxJason Hook2830 - 15 2010 (2) In response to Ben's call for book ideas Not your usual here's how to mobilize your companies business process applications. Instead a look at using Domino to host a twitter integrated, location aware application fit to run on Android, iPad and iPhone. We'll cover: 1) What's ... |
33 | Agent Manager - schedule ahead...Bill Buchan585 - 04 2008 (6) I've seen a LOT of workflow processing agents in Notes. And the one thing they all have in common is that they have to waken up at a regular interval, check all pending documents, and move around document status. What any workflow system needs is the ability to ... |
29 | Allow me to write binary data to the response stream in LS and Java.Peter LaComb677 - 08 2007 (1) I'd really like to be able to send a file attachment as a response without a redirect (since I'm creating the file in memory, I don't want to save it and then purge it at some later date). |
28 | Debugger for JavaHynek Kobelka8080 - 02 2007 (3) Most developers are used to Lotus-Script. They would not have much of a problem to write scripts in Java. The general syntax can be learned in a few hours and the main knowledge lies actually in the object-modell of the Notes-Classes, which are identical to LotusScript. However what ... |
27 | Symphony API integration in AgentsAndrea Baglioni206 - 24 2010 (5) A way to integrate "com.ibm.symphony.javaapi" in server-side agents (java/lotusscript). |
26 | Make design resource document data available programatically (with LS or Java)Make file (and other) resources' data available programatically. I can currently grab a resource design doc using a NotesNoteCollection and find what I'm looking for by searching for the $Title that I need, but if the resource is -say- a file I can't get the file data in any simple manner using LS ... |
25 | Widget/Gadget container for SidebarRob McDonagh862 - 01 2007 (3) Extend the Notes 8 sidebar to support adding widgets or gadgets (small, focused, Javascript-DHTML-CSS apps). Adding a new widget should be as easy in Notes 8 as it is in Apple's Dashboard or iGoogle. |
25 | Detect when UI-document are in Dialog modeTo unify the use of code and design elements (Subform) is sometimes useful to know we are in dialogue or not. Example: Subform used as embedded (checking for filling in the fields needed on QuerySave) and as a dialogue (on QueryClose). I propose to add a property IsDialog as Boolean ... |
25 | Remove the need of recycle()Per Holmberg439 - 10 2010 (1) There should be no need calling recycle() on Domino Java objects. Java has a garbage collector and for almost every other Java API there is no need for doing this kind of memory clean-up. The knowledge and documentation of how the use the recycle() (and if you need to ... |
22 | Remove Err=4091 from GetDocumentByUNID methodGeneration of this error is useless, it only hinders. Quite enough to return Nothing.
Similar GetDocumentByID method does not generate errors. |
21 | Progress bar for shutdownMichael Tassati3918 - 13 2010 (0) When shutdown Lotus Notes it needs some time to end all tasks - when you restart Notes in this time, it will be slow in startup. Bring a progress bar to show that client is shuting down (or close tasks immediately). |
20 | Allow Administrator the termination of running Java AgentsMichael Gollmick401 - 26 2010 (1) There is no way to terminate a Java agent that is running (and probably hung). As this (probably hung) agent is blocking agent manager from executing any other agent in the same database in some cases only a server restart will help. Weighting the impact of a server restart against ... |
20 | New classes for Appointments and other mail/calendar entriesMichael Falstrup856 - 05 2011 (2) I would very much like to see some new Classes or API's if you like, that makes it easier to create Appointments, Memo's and other Mail/Calendar entries, without having to remember all the speciel fields, that have to be set. Then we could create AppointMent and memos as objects and ... |
19 | Make task functionality with // TODO comments in Java available for LotusScript etcPhil Warner232 - 21 2010 (0) In Designer 8.5.1 I've added the Tasks window to the Domino perspective (Window>Show Eclipse Views>Other>General>Tasks), which will list the stuff I've still got left to do when writing Java, if I add "// TODO...etc" comment lines in my code, which is great. It would be lovely to have this feature ... |
18 | Add NotesUI classes to JavaThomas Bahn3659 - 03 2007 (5) Add the NotesUI classes like NotesUIDocument, NotesUIWorkspace etc. to the Java Notes-API.
This would allow programming Notes client applications completely with Java (and @formulas/JavaScript) and thus replacing LoutsScript. I see this as an alternative to enhance LotusScript to become a "real" OO language.

18 | Resizable StackTrace DialogJason Hook2830 - 26 2008 (3) When the Standard R8/8.01 client crashes we are presented with a long stacktrace in a dialog that is larger than my (1600 x 1050) screen. The dialog cannot be resized and isn't therefore very useful. Can it be supressed and/or made resizable? |
17 | Special Builder for Notes Java compilation, once Designer on Eclipse |
16 | Some member in NotesDXLImporter to inform about compile issuesAxel Janssen4993 - 08 2008 (1) With notesDxlImporter we can insert code in for example database scripts. In the process the compiler tries to automatically compile this fresh code. Unfortuatedly I get no information about if the code actually did compile or did not due to errors in the inserted code in the new environment like ... |
16 | Modernize web service support to JAX-WSPer Holmberg439 - 01 2010 (0) I think the web service support in Lotus should be modernized and support the JAX-WS (JSR 224), which is the standard web service API in Java from Java version 6. As far as I know, the built-in web service support in Domino 8.x is based on the ... |
16 | Give Domino an up-to-date Servlet EngineDavid Schiffer293 - 16 2010 (2) Please give Domino an up-to-date servlet engine, so we could do really cool things like embedding liferay or ...
No I do not want websphere.
Domino has already an servlet engine but it is very very very old - so why not an update?

15 | Facility to bind java objects to a Notes DatabaseAxel Janssen4993 - 17 2007 (3) Using high quality java open source projects for specific tasks has a potential to make Notes development a lot easier. At least this is my experience. Now a lot of those java os frameworks use some costly to create long live service objects. To mention a few examples: HibernateSessionFactory, or ... |
15 | jar hell sanity check programAxel Janssen4993 - 26 2008 (0) Hi, it can cause difficult to track problems, if on a notes server (or client also) some jar files are missing or older versions are still present for some reason. For example look at that technote: tinyurl.com/6oc725 . I guess a lot of admins and developers don't know how ... |
15 | Working with pictures without DXLPropose to add type RTELEM_TYPE_PICTURE into NotesRichTextNavigator.FindFirstElement, etc. |
15 | Support the XML files XPages components, and Java deployments to a server using .NSFsMike Woolsey2784 - 10 2011 (2) Right now new XPages and the managed beans XML files need to be placed directly on-disk to the server. I'd like the ability to set up these files, and thus replicate them to other servers in the network, using NSFs. Obviously the access controls here would be provided to ... |
14 | faster response of JVM prints to log.nsfFrantisek Kossuth220 - 02 2009 (0) Developing XPages involves many peeks into log. nsf. But prints from java or javascript code take very long time to show up (roughly half minute).
Is there a way to speed it up (flush the print buffer)? |
13 | Change Java item method parameters to use List instead of VectorNick Radov1333 - 26 2008 (12) The Domino Object Model classes for Java that deal with multi-value items use the java.util.Vector class for item values. For example, see the lotus.domino.Item.setValues(Vector) method. That was a good design back when those classes were first created for Java 1.1. But since Java 1.2 the recommended best practice ... |
11 | Refinement NotesLog classGood idea, but there are some disadvantages in its use. I propose:
|
10 | Remove Err=4411 from NotesUIDocument.Save methodGeneration of this error is useless, it also hinders. All error handling should be done in the proper place - on QuerySave.
I propose that the Save method returns the result as Boolean, it's would be very convenient and usefull. |
9 | Improvement in Item.getText()Currently, the method returns all the elements, separated by a semicolon. This can be inconvenient, because the field values may also contain a semicolon.
I propose to add an optional parameter to specify the separator: Item.getText([String sep]) |
8 | Get and set the data in the item as a simple arrayOften, for other task, it is necessary to get or set data in the item as an array, for example String[]. Now you can get the data only as Vector, which is not always convenient, since you have to manually distil data into an array. Please add the methods for ... |
7 | Domino DOM educational wikiSamuel Allen488 - 29 2007 (7) This is applicable to the Notes and Administrator clients too, but I only get to pick one IdeaSpace. :( As a 'relatively' new entrant to Notes design and administration (I've only been doing it for a few years off and on), I'm incredibly frustrated by the poor learning materials ... |
7 | Type ahead feature in Java AgentRishi Sahi1672 - 04 2009 (2) I am suprised to see still no type ahead feature for Java agent like Lotus Script. R8.5 is Eclipse based environment , At least this should be included. Also, Ease of error debugging . E.g, If I've class defined "getRecords" and If I've used "getrecords" , It says "Unable to ... |
6 | Lightweight "Spacebased programming"Alois Gruber1686 - 28 2008 (1) Spacebased programming is a concept for loosly coupled systems and has a small set of functions. Within Java there are implementations of JavaSpaces. IBM has TSpaces for that. Commercial products in the field offer far more functionality than I think for. For Notes, I would use it ... |
6 | Ability Java Library in Source Java Build PathWesley Guisso53 - 01 2009 (0) When writer Java in Script Library and need referenced into JavaScript (Server Side) this solution is to create a Folder, like WebContent/WEB-INF/source, put the Java files inside that one and point the Java compiler source path to this directory.
Could add automatically Java Library into "Source Java Build Path"? |
5 | Create a mock framework for Domino Java API |
5 | Design codePalmi Lord156 - 06 2008 (2) What about right mouse click in the Designer pane and selecting Code from Library local or server
I like the Drag & Drop for design forms and views idea too |
5 | Remove Err=4469 from NotesDocumentCollection.AddDocument methodI propose that it's method returns the result as Boolean, is quite enough. It is better add to Desinner Help describe the situations where the method may return False, and this:
Generating the error ... |
5 | DocumentCollection.search(@formula)Work on the interface (XPages) - very good, but would like to not forget about the improvement of Domino API. I beg to add the ability to search in collection of documents using @formulas, by analogy to Database.search(). The FtSearch method is inconvenient for programming and not as flexible. It ... |
4 | Add more "don't repeat yourself" (DRY) features to building managed beans & controlsMike Woolsey2784 - 10 2012 (0) Domino Designer's XPage interface has a masterful way of managing items so I'm not chasing around for the random file in the random directory. I'm heavily indebted to the designers of Designer for this. The bean & controls file arrangement needs that kind of treatment. I wish all the java, ... |
4 | Ability to determine whether there is a profileThe presence of a profile without a key can be verified with getProfileDocCollection. If the profile with the key, then using getProfileDocument has old and serious problem - profile is stored on disk, that by logic of the application can be very undesirable. This can be implemented with ... |
1 | Generate Shell Web Service based on a Notes formSteven Rieger47 - 08 2008 (1) I am curious if there is any interest i the community for a Notes based tool that generates a shell webservice in either LotusScript or Java for a selected Notes Form. Using a simplistic UI to select a Notes Database then Form and some simple options like key field(s), ... |
-6 | Provide Parity Between LotusScript and JavaPeter Presnell26400 - 25 2008 (3) I would like to see the choice of programming Notes applications with either LotusScript or Java become more one of personal preference rather than significant differences in functional capabilities. To achieve this we need to enhance the LotusScript language to provide some of the things Java can already do (e.g. polymorphism) ... |
-8 | Parity between Java/JavaScript and LotusScriptSamuel Allen488 - 30 2007 (5) It would be really nice if when IBM tells new developers that they can start developing for Lotus Notes using the language that their most familiar with, the actual act of developing for the platform didn't require them to learn ALL the languages because LotusScript, Java, JavaScript, and @Formula work ... |
-9 | add Groovy support natively to Notes Java ProgrammingAxel Janssen4993 - 13 2008 (4) Groovy is getting more and more interest in the Java community. Its kind of faster to write, especially if you implement detail-rich business logic, which is typical for Domino projects. Groovy might even be easier to learn than full blown Java and as a language its far more feature rich ... |
