I wish to create a JSR-168 compliant portlet that will display a list of files with meta-data and then provide a link download the binary file.
The files will not be public and access control will be on a user by user basis. In the servlet world, I would simply hijack the response, set it's content-type, the file name, read the file from disk and stream it out on the response. I gather that this approach will not work in the portlet world. Has anyone figured out a way to do this? thanks kindly, aaron
