This following code:
dim db as new NotesDatabase(“”,“”)
dim server as string
server = “”
call db.Replicate(Server)
will cause an NSD. Yes, it’s bad code, but it should tank the client. I’ve tested in Notes 6.x and Notes 7.x
Just a heads up.

Um… what on earth are you doing? Are you trying to crash the client?
Subject: RE: Should this crash notes
Does it really matter?
Even completely pointless LS code should never crash the client (even less a server).

LOL! I have seen it happen though, with a very inexperienced developer, but that was back in 1997 with version 4.1.
Subject: RE: Should this crash notes
Don’t remind me of some not-to-be-named developer (let’s just call him hp for now) crashing a 5.0.6 server just by opening a frameset from a browser, that did not have any content defined for one frame. That was a really, really nasty bug …
Subject: RE: Should this crash notes
Of course the goal isn’t to crash Notes, however it should trigger/throw and error and note NSD. If I were directly calling the Notes API and foo-bar’d a function argument, then it’s more understandable. With a higher level language like LotusScript it should throw an error vs tank the client.
