RE: new jetspeed user
Jetspeed is more of a framework than a web-app. Concerning persitency - the war comes with a built in hypersonic db. Stef. -Original Message- From: Amir Nashat [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Donnerstag, 18. September 2003 03:24 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: new jetspeed user Hello all, I just downloaded the jetspeed portal, installed and started playing. All is going well. A couple questions come to mind 1) Is Jetspeed a portlet container? Granted not a reference implementation but I'm curious as to the .war extension. Are containers nothing more then war files and thus a web app? I've read the spec front to back and still are not sure about this one. If someone can point to the section I'd be very much obliged. 2) So I haven't tied Jetspeed into any backend database. I then create a new user. I then create another new user with the same user name and it chokes on me saying that this user already exists. How is this user data persisted in the first place if I have no data store to save it in? I'm curious about this one. Doing a little search I noticed that data is saved into the jetspeed.script file. So when jetspeed starts is this file read and a in-memory object created that stores all the users? Is this assumption correct? Anyone? Thanks for your help everyone. Regards, Amir Amir N.

Re: Cascading Menus from PSML
Cascading menu with plenty of javascript DHTML ? I'm intesting to build one for my project but it is not plannified for this month :-) Anyway, If you can work without the customizer in this case, it is not so complex to build your own, if you know javascript-DHTML, the PSML structure and the mechanism used for jetspeed controls controllers. Obviously, customizer for this kind of menu will require more time. Do you have time ? Let me know in which area you require more info, I can try to help Christophe Jonathan Porterfield wrote: Yusuf, No response from the list on this one yet.

Getting a Portlet instance entry
Ok, I'm trying to get an instance of a Portlet object so I can check
permissions like so:
JetspeedSecurity.checkPermission((JetspeedUser) data.getUser(), portlet,
view)
I'm doing this in left.jsp, so I need to generate the instance by name.
After much trial and error, I've discovered a method that works (querying
the profiles, iterating through trying to get portlets by name).
There really must be a better way, and I'm hoping that someone can make a
suggestion.
Here's what I'm doing now:
QueryLocator qLoc = new QueryLocator(QueryLocator.QUERY_ROLE);
qLoc.setRoleByName(user);
qLoc.setUser((JetspeedUser) data.getUser());
Portlet portlet = null;
Iterator i = Profiler.query(qLoc);
while (i.hasNext()) {
Profile profile = (Profile) i.next();
if (profile.getRootSet().getPortletByName(files) != null) {
String name =
profile.getRootSet().getPortletByName(files).getName();
if (name.equalsIgnoreCase(files)) {
portlet = profile.getRootSet().getPortletByName(files);
break;
}
}
}
Ugly, especially in JSP.
Any ideas?

RE: Struts as a JSR-168 Portlet Framework
Hi Tim, Good to hear that you are pushing Struts as the portlet framework at your company. You may want to also get engaged in the struts-dev mailing list and send your feedback to them. Craig wrote that it would be nice if someone wrote the portlet version of the request processor extension for the new decomposed request processor that is being designed for Struts 2.0. The code can be found in /contrib/struts-chain in Struts CVS. So far there is only the servlet extension. If any of you could work on a portlet extension, that would be great. You can contact struts-dev about this. Thanks, Mete -- Original Message -- From: Tim Reilly [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2003 20:50:18 -0400 Excellent! I just spent the afternoon lobbying for Struts use at the portlet level... I'm not sure I did very well. In the end it came down to: * Each advocate of methodologies will present our representative use-case:Add Client Site developed in their respective methodology this coming Monday (So for me that means using IBM portlet revision of Struts1.1-b2 to develop this functionality for Mon.) The main alternate contenter is using the MVC portlet. This implies coding the if..else if..else if..else in the controller; however the point was made that since the responsibilities of a portlet should not be as large as that of a normal struts application this is acceptible. * Someone estimated a factor of 4 as the time required to develop in Struts versus not developing with Struts. This is also the person in our group with the most Struts experience, so I can't really argue against... except perhaps to capture my time and present that as well on Monday. * Others in the group expressed apprehension to the fact that we are using a modified version of Struts. I mentioned based on a previous post on this list, that the Struts community is behind supporting portlets as well as servlets. Your posting here reaffirms this for us so .. thank you. * I mentioned that although Struts adds complexity it provides; a) a well-known framework for application development. b) Would ease certain development and maintainence. c) Provide a proven framework for validation. d) Allow new team members to get up to speed faster since the framework is so well known. * I added to the discussion ... that development time may not be a factor of 4 - if solid tools are used to generate certain elements; for example - the struts-config.xml? Stubs for our Actions and Forms. Does anyone have any favorite tools that may help here? I've seen EasyStruts on eclipse-plugins.2y.net but have not used. I'd love to hear people's thoughts on this topic.
