Description

Call a Java class from a LotusScript agent Background Our client need to have user profiles opened in a Domino web form. The users were already authenticating in Domino from their LDAP directory. Their usernames contain a unique identifier for them so we could look them up in their native LDAP directory and pull all their bio info (name/address/phone, etc) and they wouldn't be required to enter it manually. This was especially nice given the fact that they didn't have Domino person documents and were updating their bio info from another system. The LDAP query was done using a dll we got from the Notes.net sandbox entitled "LotusScript Directory Service" . One nice thing about our original agent was that we wrapped all the gathering of the LDAP values into a LotusScript class. By using Object Oriented (OO) capabilities in our class, we could easily loop through the Domino fields looking for matches in the LDAP attributes. We told our client to name the fields the same in both to avoid having to do a mapping table. Plus, it lets them add new fields easily without any additional changes to the code. The limitation Recently our client required the LDAP calls to be done securely (SSL).
