Lotusphere2008_443x120.jpg

Learn all there is to know about web services -- Lotuscript-based, Java-based, and RESTful ones. Come see how to construct web services using nothing more than an IBM Lotus Notes agent, and parse XML and debug SOAP calls. Learn the pitfalls, the traps, the SOAP encoding methods! Learn the shortcuts as well as the benefits! Not working with web services yet ? Find out how these industry standard techniques will allow you to get data in and out of IBM Lotus Domino from all your other corporate applications. Web services is the ''new black''. Be fashionable!

The presentation can be downloaded from here, the example database can be downloaded from here, and the source code for the Java Web Service Servlet can be downloaded from here

Note:

  • I really wasnt happy with the code to make an agent act as a web service, so I've removed it.
  • The Servlet source code is a ZIP file containing a snapshot of my eclipse v3.3.2 project. You also need to add:
    • Java v1.3.1 as a compilation environment for Domino v6.5
    • Notes.Jar
    • LotusXML.jar
    No support can be given for any of this code. Basically, you need to know what your doing java-wise to get any benefit from this..

This presentation - as well as all others - was inspired by our development of our Product - FirM. Click here to learn more about how FirM can save significant cost and effort in running your domino environment.
