Subject: Java applets and apllications

Hi,Domino Designer can be used to create a UI elements very quickly . But there are cases when you want to create UI which require drag and drop functionality or other functionality which cannot be achived by domino designer.

You can create a Custom UI by calling a agent / applet in a pop up window.

here is a sample code of agent to get started .This code creates a Frame . You can use java Swings UI elements to create Tree, Tables and also drag drop.

I you are domino developer you may find coding in java time consuming :-).

Hope this helps.

Thanks

import lotus.domino.*;

import java.awt.*;

import javax.swing.*;

public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {

private TestFrame1 out;

public void NotesMain() {

try {

Session session = getSession();

AgentContext agentContext = session.getAgentContext();

// (Your code goes here)

out = new TestFrame1();

Thread.sleep(250);

} catch(Exception e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

}

}

import java.awt.*;

import javax.swing.*;

public class TestFrame1

{

TestFrame1()// Constructor

{

JFrame frame = new JFrame(“Test Frame 1”);

frame.setSize(200,100);

frame.setVisible( true );

}
