DECS DCRs & LEI

Hi Folks,

This post is also in the Enterprise Integration forum but I suspect that this forum gets much more exposure :slight_smile:

I’m totally new to DECs and LEI and am trying to help a colleague find a solution to an issue that will require the use of one or other of these technologies.

The question is surrounding DCRs. My colleague is attempting to access Oracle data in real time via a Notes form using DCRs. However, we don’t currently have DECS on our servers but we do have LEI. Simply put - is there an equivalent of DCRs in LEI? If so, what are they called and can someone point me in the direction of some setup information to achieve the aforementioned task?

I have looked at some of the LEI documentation but my problem is that I’m completely new to the technology so am not really sure what I’m looking for. :frowning:

Many thanks in advance for any help or guidance.

Tom.

I dont have any experience (just some testing years ago) with DCRS… However if you are looking for realtime data access, you can go with 1. Virtual fields - populate fields upon opening a form

  1. Virtual Docs - create docs in a view based on records in your db.

  2. LEILSX - write an agent to perform a query and return a result set. ( my favorite )

And I think you may still be able to use DCR’s with LEI installed, try posting that in the LEI Forum.

I personally never got Virtual Docs to work, it could have been related to the size of the db I was trying to virtualize, or it could have been an early bug, or I could have done something wrong. Either way, at the time I understand there were some performance concerns.

Good luck
