Examples: Creating, compacting, removing, and replicating a database

This agent creates a local database named salesdisc.nsf. The database is not initialized. This database is useful for storing data programmatically but cannot be used through the workspace.

import lotus.domino.*;
public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
  public void NotesMain() {
    try {
      Session session = getSession();
      AgentContext agentContext = 
           session.getAgentContext();
      // (Your code goes here) 
      DbDirectory dir = session.getDbDirectory(null);
      Database db = dir.createDatabase("salesdisc");
    } catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
}

This agent creates a local database named salesdisc.nsf based on a template and changes the title. The third argument to createFromTemplate is for inheriting design changes.

import lotus.domino.*;
public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
  public void NotesMain() {
    try {
      Session session = getSession();
      AgentContext agentContext = 
           session.getAgentContext();
      // (Your code goes here) 
      DbDirectory dir = session.getDbDirectory(null);
      Database template = dir.openDatabase(
           "discsw50.ntf");
      Database db = template.createFromTemplate
      (null, "salesdisc", true);
      db.setTitle("Sales Discussion Database");
    } catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
}

This agent creates a local replica of a database on a server and initializes it.

import lotus.domino.*;
public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
  public void NotesMain() {
    try {
      Session session = getSession();
      AgentContext agentContext = 
           session.getAgentContext();
      // (Your code goes here) 
      DbDirectory dir = session.getDbDirectory("market");
      Database basedb = dir.openDatabase("salesdisc");
      Database db = basedb.createReplica(null,
          "salesdisc");
      if (db.replicate("market"))
        System.out.println("Replication OK");
      else
        System.out.println("Replication errors");
    } catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
}

This agent creates a copy of names.nsf in the local directory.

import lotus.domino.*;
public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
  public void NotesMain() {
    try {
      Session session = getSession();
      AgentContext agentContext = 
           session.getAgentContext();
      // (Your code goes here) 
      DbDirectory dir = session.getDbDirectory(null);
      Database basedb = dir.openDatabase("names");
      Database db = basedb.createCopy(null,
           "namescpy");
      db.setTitle("Copy of names.nsf");
    } catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
}
