XPages Extension Library: A Step-by-Step Guide to the Next Generation of XPages Components
by Paul Hannan, Declan Sciolla-Lynch, Jeremy Hodge, Paul Withers, Tim Tripcony
Overview
The XPages Extension Library’s next-generation XPages
controls make application development far more efficient,
effective, scalable, and rewarding. With IBM® Lotus®
Notes®/Domino® 8.5.3 and Upgrade Pack 1, IBM has
incorporated powerful new capabilities and support. These
components and technologies are now fully ready for even the
toughest production challenges.
XPages Extension Library is the first and only complete
guide to Domino development with this library; it’s the best
manifestation yet of the underlying XPages Extensibility Framework.
Complementing the popular Mastering XPages, it gives XPages
developers complete information for taking full advantage of the
new components from IBM.
Combining reference material and practical use cases, the authors
offer step-by- step guidance for installing and configuring the
XPages Extension Library and using its state-of-the-art
applications infrastructure to quickly create rich web applications
with outstanding user experiences. Next, the authors provide
detailed step-by-step guidance for leveraging the library’s
powerful new support for REST services, mobile and social
development, and relational data. The book concludes by showing how
to include Java™ code in Domino XPages applications—a
great way to make them even more powerful.
