  2. HCL Domino Designer Basic User Guide and Reference

    This guide provides information on using HCL Domino Designer and programming language reference information.

  3. Programming Overview and User Interface

    This section contains general guidelines and examples that show where to use Java, LotusScript, and the formula language.

  4. XML for Domino

    The following topics cover some general guidelines for using XML in Domino applications and list all the elements, attributes, and entities in the Domino Document Type Definition (DTD):

  5. Using XML with Domino

    Domino now provides support for Extensible Markup Language, or XML. XML enables you to tag data in order to delimit it, leaving the interpretation of the data to the applications that read it. Unlike Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), which describes the appearance of data, XML describes the structure of data. This makes XML compatible with Domino, which stores data in structured documents, separate from its presentation. By using XML -- working on data separated from its presentation -- you can now generate more powerful Domino applications.

  6. Using XML with Java

    The Java/CORBA interface provides classes and methods:

    • What's new in HCL Domino Designer 12?

      The following features are new for developers in HCL Domino® Designer 12.

    • Accessibility and keyboard shortcuts

      Accessibility features assist users who have a disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to use information technology content successfully.

    • Application Design

      Welcome to the Application Design section of Domino® Designer Help.

    • Application Management

      Welcome to the Application Management section of Domino® Designer Help.

    • Domino® Query Language

      Domino® Query Language (DQL) is a facility running on a Domino server that provides a terse, shorthand syntax for finding documents. It supports a wide variety and complexity of search terms. It leverages existing design elements, avoiding the need to write detailed code to access them. DQL consolidates all methods in Domino for searching document contents.

    • Composite Applications - Design and Management

      Composite applications are a key element in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) and contextual collaboration strategy. The ability to create and edit composite applications lets you easily integrate different types of components and technologies.

    • DB2® Access views

      Domino® Designer includes two types of design elements to assist you in managing data contained in DB2® enabled Notes® databases:

        • Reading a DTD

          A Document Type Definition (DTD) describes the content and hierarchy of Extensible Markup Language (XML) tags that are used by an organization to define data it wants to share across platforms. The DTD consist of the following:

        • The Domino DTD

          The Domino Document Type Definition (DTD) describes the structure of DXL, the Domino version of Extensible Markup Language (XML). The DTD contains the definitions of the XML tags that you can use to validate your XML documents while converting external XML data into Domino databases or to understand any XML documents produced while exporting internal Domino databases into XML.

        • Org.W3C.DOM package

          The documentation for the org.w3c.dom package covers the following Java interfaces:

        • Org.XML.SAX package

      • JSP Custom Tag Libraries

        A JavaServer Page (JSP) is a HTML Web page that contains code which executes application logic to generate dynamic content. The page is created at the time it is requested. JSP pages are compiled into servlets; the code they contain is executed by the server. For more information on JSPs, see the Sun Microsystems Web site: http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/.
