A short one i figured is shareable; After being spooked by the solutions i found on the developerworks forums to translate object id’s to guid’s, i figured there should be a OOTB api way of doing so. Eventually i found the following: String objectID = “{304C605E-0000-CE17-BD18-E0B728DC0483}”; String guid = new […]
TL;DR; I’ve created a serializer that converts DTO’s (PoJo’s) into HTML (backend) that in turn can be translated to a JSON object to be used by JS enabled browsers (e.g. upgrade snippet to Widget). These mechanic’s would allow a data first (see Progressive Enhanchment) approach. While the solution works and has potential, […]
Edit: As commented on by Calvin, IBM now has a github containing the up-to-date code with instructions on compiling it for NEON or Oxygen, please refer to https://github.com/ibm-ecm/ibm-content-navigator-samples/tree/master/eclipsePlugin . I’m not quite sure why there isn’t a NEON version for the eclipse plugin’s yet, but in an effort to answer a […]
After sharing a strategy for a poor-man’s SSO solution last month (Logging-in from another application (poor man’s SSO)) I got into contact with one of my readers asking for similar functionality. As i helped t hem pro bono, i figured i could share the proof of concept, additionally giving insight in […]
When traditional SSO is not an option (e.g. due to the lack of infrastructure), it still is possible to move between web-applications while sharing authentication. In this post i’ll share a possible strategy for authenticating a user on a web-applicationg running on websphere, that was send there from another web-applicationg running […]
After they recently moved all of the plants from our (clients) office due to new regulations ( i guess ), we decided it was time to grow our own plants and hold a contest as to who would be able to grow the largest plant. Everyone adopted a strategy ranging […]
I didn’t actually notice at first, but over time – while working on a case manager solution, the speed of my deployments slowly decreased finally taking up to 10 minutes. It eventually turned out it had to do with a huge (and growing amount) of log files in the <WASProfile>\ICM […]
edit: The post below finally became obsolete as IBM finally created the layout-widgets our client’s had been asking is for! Introduced as of 5.3.1. are: tabs, columns and titlepanes! While i aimed this post to contain a first prototype of, what i call an advanced layout widget for IBM […]
I’ve been playing with the idea to add new functionality to the CaseBuilder in order to overcome a few design issues my clients have been facing. For instance i figured it would be nice to be able to add additional css properties to widgets, instead of only being able to […]
When creating IBM Content Navigator plugins (or Case Manager Widgets), it may be a good idea to bundle generic services into a single plugin. The problem however is, that there is no straightforward way to invoke these services from within another plugin, as each plugin is loaded with its own […]
