We have some additional programs installed on our servers which are a legacy of previous versions of Domino. With the preparation for an upgrade to 8.5 we are investigating if we still need them.
For example in the Notes 8 Designer Help I read:
Lotus Domino Designer includes the XML4J parser and LotusXSL processor in the product so you can parse and transform XML data without a separate download.
- What is the easiest way to investigate if any application is still using these programs?
(ps our environmentscomes near to 10.000 applications)

Besides manually checking “Last accessed” property of the affected JAR files, I think you can check “live” access to file system with tools like Process Monitor. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896642.aspx

I’ve done something similar to this in the past with Binary Tree’s CMT Inspector software. I use the software to capture design details on all of the applications. Then run a search for custom code terms. Then I know which applications have code in them that may be using the XML4J parser and/or LotusXSL processor. Of course, that does not mean that the code is actively running anymore.
You can contact me if you have any questions.
FYI: I am employed by Binary Tree.
