Domino API is not available to be checked in the xpage properties of my databases

I am trying to use domino api to help with some of the recycling problems that we've had with xpages. I've spent days watching the various videos that have been made over the years. I have tried to get this working in both my work environment (9.0.1) and my home dev server (10). In both cases the result is the same - I have installed the extension library and domino api on the server via updatesite and it seems to be fine there. In my designer I can see that both extension library and domino api are installed (by looking in Application Management) but only extension library is available in the databases.

Need to be able to select the org.opentf library in the datbases.

Have you checked the Page Generation Properties for the database design? From Domino Designer, look in Application Configuration, Xsp Properties, Page Generation tab. Make sure to check com.ibm.extlib.library in Xpage libraries. Do you see the extlib libraries there? – teleman
Please confirm versions installed. Various plugins avalable with DDE have changed at different versions of DDE, which means the correct ODA version needs to be installed. – Paul Stephen Withers
@PaulStephenWithers That's part of my confusion - what exactly am I comparing? There are various versions available for download - they are matched up to the server fix pack. If I have a 9 client should I get the fix pack for fp10? – Adam Morgan
In the osgi console I issued a diag statement and this is what is returned. This is for a 9 client, if that helps. /Data/workspace ........ org.openntf.domino_4.2.0.201709291450.jar [1416] No unresolved constraints – Adam Morgan
We've tried to clarify in the release page. 4.2.x is for 9.0.1 FP9. Since 10 we've moved to updated version numbering, although Tycho doesn't make it straightforward. So 10.0.0 covers V10. The version in Notes needs to match the Notes version, not the Domino version. It's referenced for compiling only, not pulled into the design. So on the server, the version needs to match the Domino server version. So you may have different versions if DDE and the server are different. That's to do with how OSGi works. – Paul Stephen Withers
