XML Extraction Tool

I have developed an XML Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for Lotus Notes/Domino that makes it very quick and easy to create complex XML extractions of Lotus Notes data.

The product can be used in a production environment but is not quite ready to be released into the wild.

The goal of this post is to identify a small number of willing beta testers that have a real world requirement for this tool.

The web site is up and running (as of today). It is a bit thin on content but I will be updating it with documentation and video over the next few weeks.

If you are interested then please refer to the web site for further information;

I will be at Lotusphere next week and would be very happy to demo the tool in person. My email address is posted on the web site.

Thanks,

Subject: Issues with Transfromer

Brent,I am building a similar tool to extract Notes data to be used in Metrics reporting etc. I am extracting 33000+ documents as DXl and using a very simple XSLT to collect the fields that I want to produce a raw XML file for use in other tools.

The problem that I have is that when I run the Transform I get the useless " an error has occurred" message. There is also nothing in the XMLprocessor log to work with either. My suspicion is that it is a memory issue. I have watched the Notes client consume upwards of 2gb in memory.

Have you had this problem?

I’m now going back to plan b which is to hand craft the output with WriteText to the output stream.

Any help appreciated

Mark

Subject: Transformer

Mark,

I’m not using the NotesDXLExporter or NotesXSLTransformer objects in my tool. I allow you to specify exactly what content you want, which is then output in the XML format you want.

I have experienced memory leaks using the NotesDXLImporter to import hundreds of documents with images in them. You might be experiencing a memory leak if you are processing that many documents at once. Are you breaking it up into chunks at all?

I would be happy to demo my tool if you are interested. I designed it for these types of situations. My contact info is on my (sparse for now) website www.enterinfosystems.com.
