RE : RE : [exoplatform] Struts portlets in exo

["Alexandre-Michael Neubert" <alexandre-michael.neubert@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Benjamin, Hello list,

I did not manage to get the code from the incubator working for the struts portlet. But I found a way to make it work and I would like to have your opinion about that:

• I simply copied the jar files
• commons-digester-1.5.jar
• commons-validator-1.1.1.jar
• exoplatform.portlet-framework.struts-1.0.jar
• exo-struts-1.1.jar

            from an exo portal distribution to my exo portlet container (in fact to the common/lib directory of tomcat)

• With that architecture (exo-portlet container 1.5) and my custom jars, I was able to make the exo struts sample working (supplied in exo V1)

 

Now, what I need to know is:

• Is that architecture ok (I know copying jars from one lib to another is not recommended) ?
• Will this work properly or do I have to expect some side effects?
• Does the exo team plan to migrate the code from the incubator (for struts) to the portlet container 1.5 and if yes, when is that planned?
• Btw, I noticed that some jsf jars are already embedded in the PC 1.5; does that mean that the currently available PC supports jsf portlet development?

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Regards,

 

Alexandre

 Is there any documentation about how the generic bridge and the one for struts is working (and how they are to be used) ?

 

There was a blog about it:

 

http://exo-struts.blogspot.com/

you can try that code, probably some stuffs to upgrade but should be ok; if you can make it we will upgrade that bridge and move it to exo-portlet-container

Does that mean that they are currently not available on portlet-container 1.5 ?

 

It is in the incubator in v2.x so not in PC 1.5, you have to build and test by yourself for that one :)

Hello list,

I want to develop a simple portlet based on struts in exo. Does exo has a StrutsPortlet superclass (like for example Websphere Portal)?

If not, I saw that an alternative is to develop portlets based on apache myfaces implementation of jsf; I saw that this is supported in exo, but I did not find any tutorial or minimal example of this.

Can anybody tell me where to fin this stuff; that is:

·         If not, where to find documentation (tutorial) and a simple example of myfaces portlet for exo (like provided smyfacesportlet.war in portlet-container.ear)

 

Notice that I want to use portlet container 1.5 to deploy it and that it is currecntly depoyed as a bundle with tomcat.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Regards
