OpenLog 1.5 (Beta)
That's right. Uh-huh. It's out, baby! Julian posted it to OpenNTF last night. Go forth and download. Like, now.
This is the version that Julian and I used when we spoke at Lotusphere in January. Since then he's spent, well, much more time than any other developer I know would have, focused on making it ready for prime time. It's got documentation and example code and all sorts of goodies. It is a beta, though, so use at your own risk (insert your favorite hideous warning here). I don't have any beta program rules for you to follow, though. *grin*
The two headline features are Javascript error logging and RSS feeds for your notifications. The Javascript library works like freakin' magic. You include the script library on your page/form, and you're done. No code to write. Really. You've got to see it to believe it. You could even use the same Javascript code in a non-Domino site and it would still work perfectly. Very cool. Julian also worked out how to make it behave itself in a cross-domain environment (the secret: iFrames!), so if you need to centralize your logging across applications hosted on multiple servers you're all set. I'm telling you, this is the coolest thing to happen to Domino web development since the InterNotes Web Publisher.
There are some cool ways you can extend the JS logging, and I'm going to put up an example or two for SnTT. The news for today, though: Get it. Use it.
Go on. What are you doing still reading this?!?
