Lotus Notes 8 will support JSON with the readViewEntries ReadDesign ReadEntries commands.





What is JSON?

JSON stands for Javascript Object Notation

How Do i use JSON in Lotus Notes 8?

Use &outputformat=JSON   with readviewentries & readdesign & readentries

eg: viewname?readviewentries&outputformat=JSON&count=1 etc

Why would I use JSON?

JSON is a lighweight XML, it uses less bandwidth and so less server CPU, and is easier to navigate through than XML.

This is useful for writing AJAX applications.

I suppose these applications will be called AJAJ "Asynchronous Javascript and JSON" .

Example JSON code coming soon...

Where do I get more information on JSON?

http://www.json.org

These options have been added to 7.02 as well.

British book of the year 2000. Great book, hard to put down, but I nearly threw it away half way through. You'll know why when you read it.
