• Adaptors in Eclipse
  A new article has been added to eclipse.org/articles and it describes the Adaptor pattern and how it's used in Eclipse. A must read if you're into Eclipse/Notes 8.x plug-in development. Below is the introduction. "The adapter pattern is used ...
• Eclipse 3.4 features
  Found a nice round up of some of the new features in Eclipse 3.4 from a developers perspective (Eclipse 3.4 Hidden Treasures). I found the info on the new dropin (aka the "p2" provisioning system) folder and "Plug-in Spy" plug-in very interesting. The ...
• LotusScript.doc - an update...
  So it's been very quiet lately around LotusScript.doc and I'm a bit ashamed that I haven't written anything publicly about it for a long time. Prompted by this comment and numerous conversations at ILUG2008 I think it's time for an update. The state of ...
• Back online...
  lekkimworld.com is back online at my new ISP and shortly (I hope) all the redirections etc. have been moved over too.
• lekkimworld.com going dark for a while
  Just found out I have to change hosting provider for my blog. Since I haven't got a new provider on hand I'm going dark for a few days until I find a hosting provider that suits me. I'm looking for a place where I can host Tomcat apps and have about 1GB ...
• Didn't know I could do that!
  Didn't know I could do that (don't know whether it was added in Eclipse 3.4) but it sure makes it easier and faster to find the plugins you need to depend on. Instead of having to remember the entire name you can use the *-character. Sweet. Tags : ...
• TwitNotes - why it doesn't run in Notes 8.5 beta and why IBM should care
  After getting my Eclipse IDE to work with Notes 8.5 I nailed why TwitNotes doesn't work with Notes 8.5 beta yesterday. For long I was told that the main culprit was me using my own copy of org.apache.commons.h...
• Notes 8.5 - interesting design refresh observation
  Refreshed the design of a database modified using Domino Designer 8.5 (Eclipse version) in Notes 7.0.2 and discovered some of the new stuff now stored in the NSF. See screenshot below. Especially the WEB-INF/classes/plug...

  ...you're not doing this on your birthday! Have a great day!!!
• Re: lekkimworld.com going dark for a while
  I've been on MediaTemple for a couple of years now and have been really happy with their service. I got my old company to set up a couple rails apps and host their main site on it as well and things went quite smoothly. I don't think their entry-level ...
• Re: Notes 8.5 - interesting design refresh observation
  Servlets in Domino aren't managed within the nsf-file but in the file system. The Domino admin. help should tell you what you need to know. Please note that the servlet engine in Domino is servlet spec 1.2 (or there about) so it's very much outdated. You ...
• Re: Notes 8.5 - interesting design refresh observation
  Hello here, how can we access the web-inf directory to put some config files ? I'm working on implementing openamf to domino, but I don't know were put my config files if I want they 'll be loaded at Servlet start up
• Re: TwitNotes - ready for installation
  Martin, I had the same issue on Vista. I discovered that you need to multi-select both TwitNotes features when you uninstall/disable the plugin.
• Re: Configure Eclipse 3.4 for Notes 8.5 plug-in development
  These instructions worked a treat for me using Eclipse 3.4 RC4. I also experienced the weird classpath issues with org.eclipse.swt (as well as with com.ibm.notes.java.a...
• Re: Configure Eclipse 3.4 for Notes 8.5 plug-in development
  Hmmm - unfortunately upgrading to Eclipse 3.4RC4 doesn't solve the problem. Bummer!
• Re: TwitNotes - why it doesn't run in Notes 8.5 beta and why IBM should care
  Thanks for the input Mikkel, we just fixed it for Expeditor 6.2. :)
