The Definitive XPages Development Guide--Straight from the XPages Team at IBM Lotus
XPages is the most significant improvement to Lotus Notes/Domino development in 20 years. Now, three IBM Lotus insiders have written the definitive programmer’s guide to this breakthrough web application development framework. Packed with tips, tricks, and best practices, Mastering XPages brings together all the information you need to become an XPages expert, whether you’re experienced with Notes/Domino development or not.
The authors begin with a high-level overview of XPages: how it works, why it works that way, and why it’s such a powerful step forward. Next, you’ll install XPages and Domino Designer, and start building your expertise through practical code examples using real-world XPages applications. As you progress, you’ll master XPages from the bottom up, gain deep insight into the entire XPages development model, and discover how XPages can be used to solve everyday application development challenges.
Coverage includes
• Understanding how XPages development differs from--and is similar to--traditional Notes/Domino development
• Getting started with XPages development using Lotus Domino Designer
• Defining application metadata and binding XPages controls to Domino data
• Managing all aspects of Domino view and document data
• Navigating and linking XPages to form a cohesive application
• Building XPages business logic using various programming technologies
• Reading and writing XPage source (XSP markup) directly
• Mastering XPages programming and extensibility features, including custom controls, advanced scripting, as well as creating your very own components
• Making the most of XPages applications on the Notes client platform
• Building slick and effective application user experiences using themes
• Tuning XPages performance and maximizing application scalability
• Securing applications with Access Control Lists (ACL), Execution Control Lists (ECL), and Active Content Filtering (ACF)
Ãœber den Autor
The authors of this book have a number of things in common. All three hail from Ireland, work for the IBM Ireland software lab, and have made significant contributions to the development of XPages over the past number of years. Martin Donnelly is a software architect and tech lead for the XPages runtime team in IBM Ireland and has worked on all three XPages releases from Notes/Domino 8.5 through 8.5.2. Prior to this, Martin also worked on XFaces for Lotus Component Designer and on JSF tooling for Rational Application Developer. In the 1990s while living and working in Massachusetts, he was a lead developer on Domino Designer. Now once again based in Ireland, Martin lives in Cork with his wife Aileen, daughters Alison, Aisling, and Maeve, and retired greyhounds Evie and Chelsea. Outside of work, he confesses to playing soccer on a weekly basis and salmon angling during the summer when the opportunity presents itself. Mark Wallace is a software architect working in the IBM Ireland software lab. In the past, he worked on the XSP runtime, which was developed for Lotus Component Designer and subsequently evolved into the XPages runtime. He has a keen interest in programming models and improving developer productivity. Mark has worked in Lotus and IBM for more than 15 years on various products and is currently working on Sametime Unified Telephony. Mark lives in Dublin with his wife and two children and spends as much time as possible in the Ireland's sunny south east enjoying fishing and kayaking with his family. Tony McGuckin is a senior software engineer in the IBM Ireland software lab. Having studied software engineering at the University of Ulster, he began his career with IBM in 2006 working in software product development on the component designer runtime before moving into the XPages core runtime team. When not directly contributing to the core runtime, Tony is busy with software research and development for the next generation of application development tooling, and also engaging directly with IBM customers as an XPages consultant. Tony enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter, and getting out into the great outdoors for hill walking and the occasional chance to do some hunting in the surrounding hillsides of his native County Derry.

'I never got the chance to meet the inventors of 'Notes', but these guys were true visionaries.' This is the first sentence in a 748 pages book about XPages that was recently published by IBM Press.
The book is written by Martin Donnelly, Mark Wallace and Tony McGuckin with a foreword by Philippe Riand. Although all authors declare that 'none of us had been down the book-writing road before', the book is well written, even for readers that do not have english as the first language.
The main content starts with a high level overview about XPages. Even if you are already experienced in XPages development, it is worth reading this chapter. Start writing your first XPages application and follow the instructions step by step. The resulting application is a good starting point to put enhancements on top.
If you run into a problem regarding security settings on the server take a look at the very end of the book where you find the settings that have to be applied to your server.
IMHO, this information should be part of the 'Getting Everything You Need' chapter.
The anatomy of an XPage is described in detail in chapter 4. Newbees to this field should read this chapter carefully. You will need this information if you want to dig deeper into XPages development later on.
Chapter 12 explains how to build your own user interface controls. This part of the book is not easy to understand for a non experienced developer, but if you follow the step by step instruction carefully, you will succeed.
All over the book you find tons of source code and numerous screenshots. It would be a good idea to make the source code available for download. But perhaps it is already available and I missed this part in the book.
The book also gives credit to all of the members of the Notes Community that started back in 8.5 with spreading the news about XPages in blogs, podcasts etc. Take these ressources as a supplement to the information you find in the book.
As a conclusion, I would recommend this book to every developer that wants to start with XPages development.

Sehr, sehr gutes Buch. Eines der besten IT Bücher, das ich bisher gelesen habe. Sehr guter Aufbau, das Thema wird extrem tiefgreifend bearbeitet. Ich kannte XPages schon zuvor und habe trotzdem keine Seite ausgelassen.

As an apprentice developer new to Lotus Notes in general, this is most likely the best resource that I could possibly have. The philosophy that one must first understand the code before a graphical design overlay can be used is awesome for learning 1, how to program in general, and 2 the best possible way to develope XPages. The language starts off as being very informal, but turns into an easy to understand medium (also for non-native english speakers). The examples are clear, and well thought out, as well as practical. I very highly recommend this book to anyone interested in getting into IBM Lotus web-application / smartphone-application development, who is either entirely new to Notes or who just wants to upgrade to 8.X.X. I would further recommend a basic understanding of Javascript / css / java, although the XPage design element was made so that is not really neccesary for beginners making simple applications.
