Lab 03 – Leverage Lotus Symphony in your business solutions
This two part lab will introduce you to Symphony, explain how to extend Lotus Symphony with Eclipse plug-in development and deployment, teach the default actions of Symphony (i.e. load a document, save document, insert text, etc.), and show you how to customize Symphony to support more actions and properties with the Symphony Java API and Expeditor PropertyBroker. You will learn by developing a basic Eclipse plug-in that runs on Symphony and then build on your knowledge to develop a composite application that emulates a sales performance management dashboard. After this lab, you will see how Symphony is not just about office productivity tools like word processing, spreadsheet or presentation; it’s about customization and integration of Lotus Symphony to your solutions.
There is a bonus section devoted to Lotus Notes Developers who are interested in Leveraging Lotus Symphony via the LotusScript Toolkit.
