Moved from Ukraine to Denmark

From 1-st December I work and live in Denmark. It's really interesting experience for me and my family. I had been working with e-conomic from Kiev for more than 3 years and at some point company decided that it had sense to invite me to work in main office. Now I'm here, so wanna tell 'hi' to those who live here :)

Couple fresh photos of Copenhagen.

City is ready for Christmas:

Now most funny thing :), we met hundred well organized girls, they marched along the main shop-street of the city and cried slogans about Justin Bieber. It was really funny.

What is comfort zone for Domino developers our days?

Lotus Script is no longer in my 'comfort zone' anymore but Java/JavaScript. That's actually it. We already moved all (well 90%) of backend to Java. Now Lotus Script serves only to provide validation/picklist/msgbox on forms/views for existing 'classic' applications. Now we are slowly moving everything to web and I like that.

We are aiming in few years to let our users to un-install LN and simply use browsers and that would be perfect. That time we should have no even 1 line LS and @Formula.

Exception occurred calling method NotesAgent.runWithDocumentContext(lotus.domino.local.Document) null

Tried to run agent with 'context document' in xPage (via SSJS) and got this problem. I did not find a way how to solve that except to enable checkbox 'Run as Web User' for agent, however I need to run agent from 'signer' as 'runner' has Reader access and my agent update should document. It's terrible with this problem (if it is problem ofc :)). What should I do know?

ViewEntry and Show multiple values as separate entries

When your view has column with option 'Show multiple values as separate entries' and you use ViewEntry to read data from that column you will have a problem. Result of your getColumnValues() can be different, f.x. in 1 case it can be 'Vector' and in another case 'String'. It depends if entry was really split on few entries because of multi-value. I've lookup around and found this issue already reported on IBM ~3 years ago (IBM whats up?)

Full description of problem

Here is a solution I made

Vector v = entry.getColumnValues();
Object o = v.get(0);
String title = "";
if (o.getClass().equals(String.class)) {
 title = (String) o;
}
else if (o.getClass().equals(Vector.class)) {
 Vector tmp = (Vector)o;
 title = (String) tmp.get(0);
}

Content Is Not Allowed In Prolog

Got this issue in the morning. We have service that "aggregate" data from multiple RSS into 1 RSS. The issue appeared because at one of RSS we enabled encode option [encode UTF-8] but not [encode UTF-8 without BOM]:

encode in UTF-8
encode in UTF-8 without BOM.

our Java parse does not understand this BOM (byte order mark). So we just swtiched to one without BOM byte. I've made tests using this online tool, it worked just as I expected XMLValidator
