I just love the federated calendar! Of course I now want to expand this into other applications!Can anyone give me a pointer to how it pulls documents from multiple databases into one view???
I poked around in the calendar and script library code, and it is not obvious!
Subject: federated calendars is not part of the calendar design or lotusscript code
it is part of the calendar ‘java view’ and the compiled code. So if you are looking to build federation into your own apps, you need to write the interface. The foundation is rss / ical and all of that is just xml / text. you can parse it yourself.
If you want to add your own apps into the federation, look at how the team rooms are integrated
Subject: a bit more detail on federated databases
JohnI think I understand:
the “other” database is read by an rss reader, which interprets the xml text and puts it into the view.
How does it put it into the (java) view? I only know about selection formulas from the current database.

Subject: write lots of code 
this isn’t something that is a component you just add to your app. You have to build it all
Subject: An extension points?
Are there any extension points and example code of how to provide calendar entries dynamically to all calendars?
If no extension point exists as of 8.5, will it be in 8.5.1 or some later version?
This would really help A LOT if IBM provided us with more information.
