Accessing portlet API from JSF-portlet?

[rick joyner <dilbert_future@xxxxxxxxx>]

When writing a "normal" portlet it is easy to access the methods provided by the portlet API because one will implement a portlet class (extending GenericPortlet etc.) anyways.

 

But how do I call those methods when I have a JSF-based portlet?

Since eXo provides the portlet implementation, such portlet won't contain any portlet class.

But what if I want to do API calls (e.g. to find out the user name of the user who is currently using the portlet)?

 

Thanks
