Using LotusScript in IBM Lotus Domino 7 Applications

Prerequisites:

ND510: Developing IBM Lotus Domino 6 Applications: Foundation Skills or the equivalent skills

N7D510: Fundamentals of IBM Lotus Domino 7 Application Development or the equivalent skill

Course Description:

Students will learn the techniques of programming in LotusScript while they learn to access and work with objects in the Domino Object Model. This workshop starts by introducing students to the LotusScript language, having them retrieve properties of a database, using methods of NotesDatabase, and traversing down the Document Object Model to ACL classes. The skill of navigating the Document Object Model is continuously reinforced throughout the course as students learn to work with front-end and back-end classes. Students are introduced to error checking the LotusScript Debugger early on so that they use it throughout the course.

This course includes the following modules:
