20. Open Application Properties
● In the application navigator, open Application Properties

21. On Advanced Tab, Check Ext Library
● In the Xpage Libraries Section, there should now be an entry for
com.ibm.xsp.extlib.library
● Check it
● Save

22. Create Sample XPage
● Go to Xpages in the application navigator and double-click Xpages
● Click “New Xpage” button

23. Controls View
● Far right column of Designer
should have a view called
“Controls”
● If not, use menu Window | Show
Eclipse Views | Controls to
display it

24. Go to Extension Library section
● In the Controls view, there are
several sections
● Near the bottom of the view,
there should be a section for
Extension Library
● If there, congratulations, you've
installed the Extension Library
into Domino Designer

25. Server Installation
● Installing to Domino Designer just makes the controls available to the
Designer client
● It doesn't make the controls available at runtime for the Domino server
● The same plugins have to be installed on the Domino server
● Unfortunately, the server isn't based on Eclipse so we can't use a plugin
installer and updateSite.zip to automatically install them

26. Unzip updateSite.zip
● updateSite.zip is in the c:extlib-extract folder created earlier
● Double-click it

27. Extract to update-site-extract subdir
● Extract the files to a new subdirectory under c:extlib-extractupdate-site-
extract
▬ These exact paths aren't necessary. We are doing this just to have a reference for
this guide

28. Move Files to Domino Server Directory
● Locate your Domino data directory
▬ e.g. c:IBMLotusDominoData
● Navigate to dominoworkspaceapplicationseclipes
● Full path example:
▬ C:IBMLotusDominoDataDominoWorkspaceApplicationsEclipse
● From the update-site-extractfeatures folder, copy the contents into
the ...EclipseFeatures directory
● See next slide for screenshot

30. Repeat for plugins directory

31. Verify Installation
● There should be 1 file that was copied into features directory
● There should be 8 files that were copied into plugins directory
● At the Domino server console
▬ Type tell http quit
▬ Load http

32. Verify ext lib loaded
● At server command prompt, type:
▬ tell http osgi ss com.ibm.xsp.extlib
● Results should look like this:

33. Install Mobile Controls
● For the mobile components of the Extension Library to work, it requires
the dojox/mobile library from Dojo 1.5
● Domino 8.5.2 ships with Dojo 1.4.3
● Dojo 1.5 has to be downloaded and then a subset of it moved into the
Domino subdirectories

34. Download Dojo 1.5
● Go to http://dojotoolkit.org/download
▬ (not necessary for lab, file has been put on desktop)
● Download the “Dojo Toolkit Release” zipfile not “Dojo Base”

35. Extract Dojo Files
● Double-click the dojo-release-1.5.0-zip file to c:dojo-extract

36. Copy mobile.js file
● Copy C:dojo-extractdojo-release-1.5.0dojoxmobile.js to
● C:IBMLotusDominodatadominojsdojo-1.4.3dojoxmobile.js

37. Copy dojoxmobile
● Copy the entire Mobile subdirectory into the dojox folder on the Domino
server
● Mobile is a new module in dojo 1.5 that did not exist in 1.4, therefore the
entire dojoxmobile subdirectory is new, and we copy it into the 1.4.3
dojox folder
● Copy c:dojo-extractdojo-release-1.5.0dojoxmobile to
● C:IBMLotusDominodatajsdojo-1.4.3dojox

39. Install Mobile Themes
● Xpage theme files for iPhone, Android, and Blackberry are included in
the extension library download
● Theme files must be put into the Domino subdirectories
● In c:extlib-extract, open the src.zip file and extract it to c:extlib-
extractsrc-extract

40. Locate and copy .theme files
● In the src-extract folder, navigate to
▬ eclipsepluginscom.ibm.xsp.extlib.mobileresourcesmobilethemes
● There are 3 .theme files located there
● Copy them to
▬ c:IBMLotusDominoxspnsfthemes
● Tell http restart at server console

41. Congratulations!
● The Extension Library is now installed on both the Domino server and
client
● The next step is to get the Demo database on the server and try it out to
see the new controls at work

42. Copy Demo Database
● In the c:extlib-extract there is a Notes database called XpagesExt.nsf
● Copy it to the data directory on the Domino server
● Open the database with the Designer client
● Sign the database

43. Open Demo Database in Browser
● http://127.0.0.1/XPagesExt.nsf
● Login as Domino Admin, passw0rd

44. Go to the Mobile Tab
● Click the Tab for Mobile and then choose iPhone from the Navigator
● If the Mobile components are installed correctly, an iPhone frame will
appear on the screen
