3. The administrator modifies the composite application's .xml to point to a specific Domino update site.
a. Open a composite application, for example MyCompAppabx.nsf, in Domino Designer on the
Domino server.
As the application is opening, do not click Cancel.
Accept any security screen prompts.
b. Click Composite Application > Application in the left pane navigator.
c. Click the composite application name in the list and then click the Export tab.
This action outputs to an xml file of the same name, for example MyCompAppabx.xml.
Leave the composite application open.
d. Open the xml file created in the previous step.
e. Modify each "url.feature" value to point to the needed Domino update site. For example, for each
<preference namename="
url.feature "> entry, where url.feature is the placeholder for the update site
URL and the specific feature name, point to the needed Domino update site.
The following format uses an NRPC protocol:
NRPC://<
server >/
_
_< replicationID >/site.xml
The following format uses an HTTP protocol:
http://<
server >/updatesite.nsf/site.xml
4. Save and close the xml file.
5. In Domino Designer and within the open composite application, click the composite application name in
the list, click the Refresh tab, and select the modified composite application .xml file.
6. Open the update site application updatesite.nsf and import the site.xml file from the local update site
folder that accompanies this composite application.
A user can now open the composite application using a Notes database link, bookmark, or File >
Application > Open (or Ctrl-O) on the server to initiate update.
For information about controlling user-initiated updates, see the "Enabling user-initiated update" release
note.
Retrieving composite application definitions (CA XML) from Domino
The NRPC URL format for retrieving composite application updates is as below:
NRPC://<Server-hint-or-host>/<replica-id>/composite.xml?<param>=<value>
Where:
Server-hint-or-host = DNS host name, IP address, or server name
Replica-id of the database on the target server
Param = <name|unid>
Name = String to be used to lookup CA design element in view -- Look up first as a name
and if not found, then as an alias.
UNID = UNID of the composite application design note
For example:
NRPC://abx_tc.upcdev.ibm.com/__8525634000734621/composite.xml?name=Hannover
