Calling XML geeks!

English!

Personally, I'd use Java to compile a standalone binary to do it. NetBeans 5.5 comes with JDK1.5 & is free!

Then just use DOM to process the XML as a basic array, manipulate, then spit it out.

Not hard at all, but nothing in Windows itself will do it.

Cheers for your help guys! I need to write this from Lotus Notes so that it can programmatically jig around with the data in the XML so this should be interesting.

Of course most modern languages support XML. It really depends what you want to do. In the past I would scream java java java. But I have also found that .net enables some neat trickery with xml files.


But from the sound of things. I would guess your first port of call is somewhere like amazon. You need to learn what XML is all about. how to manipulate xml, slt, to define xml schemas etc.


Form the little you have posted. I would suggest you need to look to designing a web services approach to managing your xml transfers between different systems. it is then simply a matter of of using the appropriate parser for your requirement.

I believe domino designer 7 is probably your friend as it has reasonable support for xml according to my notes colleagues

Yeah, Notes 6.5 + seems to deal with XML ok so I'm currently looking at that, looks like its using Java. The web service has already pretty much been developed, I've been given the task of creating the interface.

Cheers for the info!

I'm looking at it as a challenge

WebObjects (expensive licence though) is beautiful for this. Funnily enough, I've JUST installed it on my new development machine.

ALL it does is draws a screen in a browser, with various fields (either display to the user, or allow the user to respond etc), and talks to the Java behind it to do manipulations of data.

P.S. Oracle 9i takes forever to install, but 10g has too many bugs IMO!

first thing, have you checked the compatability of the check squares against the furthest point of intacted bus points?

no? simple mistake to make that.

once that has been conjoined PLEASE make sure that the offeltipbung has been married corretly to the shuffle board, if not your crackerpow-wows wont ignite. but duh everybody knows that

lol!

Argh, I have to do it all in LotusScript, for which there is very limited documentation or support. Most of the IBM documentation only discusses doing it with java which isn't an option, nor is doing it in anything else. Ho hum, should keep me quiet for a while.

Not a difficult project in a proper language, but it sounds like you're going to have heaps of fun.

Only mentions the word Java once!

HTH.
