RE: Lotus Symphony no longer included?

That's correct, the Notes 9.0 install does not include Lotus Symphony.

@LDD - any reasons why Symphony was part of the Notes install in R8 but not now in R9? Shouldn't newer versions have MORE good stuff with it, not less?

Thanks!

Does this mean that the integration between Notes and Symphony is no longer an easy job?

I used this http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/library/symphony-toolkit/ to create spreadsheets from Notes application using LS code.

Am I going to miss this feature?

I am really interested in this topic as well... I need the symphony integrated container because I'm working on a composite application involving Symphony Spreadsheet & the HOD ( host-on-demand ) container.

com.ibm.rcp.composite.container.symphony.view.SpreadsheetView.

RE: Lotus Symphony no longer included?

i can confirm that, installing IBM Notes & Designer 9.0, and the Lotus Symphony standalone, does NOT work.

Code that previously worked to create reports in Symphony spreadsheets doesn't work anymore.

When opening the code in Designer to recompile it, the error arises in the following line:

%Include "symphonylsx.lss"

Is there anyway to fix it ?

Any update ?

Any update on this ?

What can we do with existing applications that use Symphony from LotusScript ?

Thanks

Any Traction on the above ?

We just rolled out Domino 9.0, so my notes clients are not far behind. I am really dreading the day that I upgrade because I loose the embedded symphony spreadsheet and it's been a pet project of mine to develop a quote manager application using the HOD container & Lotus Symphony Spreadsheets.

Eric Otchet who's no longer with IBM, was a huge help in trying help me solve this... in the IBM Collaboration Solutions Catalog there is a IBM Lotus Symphony LotusScript Support widget for IBM Notes.

I downloaded the plug in, installed as a widget into my Lotus Notes 9.0.1 client & I've tried installing 3.0.1 stand alone & the Symphony component installation. ( oh and this has to work on a MAC as well ) .... :-)

When I load my composite application my old symphony container says :

"Could not create the view: Plug-in com.ibm.rcp.topologyhandler was unable to load class com.ibm.rcp.composite.container.symphony.view.SpreadsheetView."

"NOTE: Composite Applications using Symphony Containers or any part of embedded Symphony will no longer work without integrated Symphony starting with Notes 9.0 and beyond."

When I expand the details....
