Hi,

 

may I ask you what you are trying to implement? If you just want to refresh some information which the clients , you could f.e. use a profile document (which can be easily accessed from every interface to domino)?

Or you could create a function for accessing the applicationScope which stores the timestamp of the last update, and then recalculate the applicationScope if expired?

This is what i am trying to do: use a applicationScope variable to hold the rss data, and update it every 15 minutes. so different sites can use that copy

 

Or you could create a function for accessing the applicationScope which stores the timestamp of the last update, and then recalculate the applicationScope if expired

 

its exactly what I want, but how can I trigger this function, without using any of these

 

 

You could try something like this:

 

   applicationScope.lastUpdate = System.currentTimeMillis();

 

 

In your applications, you are using only "getRSSData()" to get your RSS data. A periodic update is not required.

 

Hope this helps

Sven

 

 

 

 

Hi

 

thanks for your input, I am aware of such solution. What I want to achieve is do the same thing without writing ssjs or even making any HTTP request.

Like a scheduled agent

How about making an XAgent (XPage without any ui rendering) with a normal scheduled agent which would call this XAgent page periodically?

In the agent you can use e.g. Apache HttpClient Java class libraries to make the http call.

 

@weihang chen:

Do you mean an extension based on OSGi?

Sven: by "you" I assume you mean me? :)

 

No, XAgent is a normal XPages page where the rendering has set to false. Don't remember who "invented" the name XAgent anymore.

I saw somewhere an example where a normal scheduled agent called the XPage using HTTP and this was coded using the Apache HttpClient Java library.

@Rami:

Hi guys, thanks for your suggestions...... xpages as servlet responding with data in any format is what xagent does.

I am not smart enough to comprehend things like http://www.openntf.org/Projects/pmt.nsf/ProjectLookup/JAVADDIN

applicationscope variables is maintained by servlet container, dont know what kind of relationship it has with server task.

 

and Looks like ServletContextListener and prenty more others
