The Best Tool I use!!



The best tool for Lotus Notes Delevopment is Openlog logging application.

Why? It's a real timesaver. The ease of use and the accurate information it provides is really helpful when debugging applications.

I hardly ever use "Tools ->Debug Lotusscript" these days. I just pop in the OpenLogFunction script library, and enter statements to log event or and error.

When and error occurs, or I want to check what path my code takes in if, case or any other flow control statements, I can use a function called LogEvent.

The real power is the log documents the application creates. You get user infomation, user access levels, call stack, line where error occurs etc. You can even provide a document link for the a document you want to inspect when an event is logged or an error for that matter.

Any Lotus Notes developer should check out this application, and start using it when developing, and debugging.
