Working with groups in LotusScript

In this article, we discuss two ways to work with groups. First, we look at the built-in LotusScript class, NotesAdministrationProcess, available in Lotus Notes/Domino 6.0 and later. This class can add members to groups, rename them, and delete them (along with many other functions not related to groups). There is no function to remove users from a group; however, if you use the administration process (AdminP) to remove users entirely, they will also be removed from groups. For more on the NotesAdministrationProcess class, see the article, “LotusScript: The NotesAdministrationProcess Class in Notes/Domino 6.

We also present two custom LotusScript classes that support a wider set of group operations. The code was written for Lotus Notes/Domino 6.0 and later; using it in release 5 requires some minor changes. The article contains a few sample agents that show how to use these classes for different tasks. The classes are not usable from COM because they use the List datatype internally, which Visual Basic does not support.

Lotus Notes feiert 15. Geburtstag

Am 7. Dezember 1989, vor genau 15 Jahren wurde die Workgroup-Software Lotus Notes 1.0 vorgestellt. Damals hatte Notes fünf Jahre Entwicklung hinter sich und genau einen Kunden: Sheldon Laube, damals CIO von Price Waterhouse, kaufte 10.000 Lizenzen für sein Unternehmen.

[…]

Bereits die erste Version bot 1989 Verschlüsselung und Signierung von Dokumenten mit RSA-Public-Key-Verfahren sowie ein zentrales Directory, eine E-Mail-Anwendung, so genannte Doc-Links als Hypertextverweise zwischen Dokumenten und eine Zugriffskontrolle über Access Control Lists (ACL). Mit der Version 2.0 in 1991 arbeitete Iris vor allem an einer größeren Skalierbarkeit. Um sich auf größere Unternehmen mit entsprechender IT-Infrastruktur zu konzentrieren, führte Lotus eine Minimalzahl von 200 Lizenzen ein, die man für damals 62.000 US-Dollar erwarb. Mit dem Erscheinen von Notes 3.0 in 1993 hatte Lotus 2.000 Kunden mit insgesamt 500.000 Notes-Anwendern. Von Ozzie nicht vorausgesehen entwickelte sich Notes zu einem Anwendungsserver, der ein größeres Ökosystem von Business Partner mit der Entwicklung kundenspezifischer Lösungen beschäftigte. Nur wenige schafften es aber, aus dem Projektgeschäft zu unabhängigen Softwareherstellern (ISV) zu werden.

Thank you for your valuable feedback so far, and we look forward to continuing our dialog with you once Beta 3 is available.
