Ditto to Susan's comments. It is good to see that the project is still alive
and well.

Congratulations Eric - that's a great way to end the year.

I wanted to give everyone a pre-holiday update on the status of uP3.

I just got portlets rendering under pluto 1.1 today. This is a pretty 
big step as it is using new DAOs for portlet objects, a new request 
parameter processing pipline, a refactored rendering pipeline and a 
brand new portlet adaptor.


There are still some things missing, such as:
-Addressing the shared rendering variables in ChannelManager
-Completing portlet action support (render is only working currently)
-Completing some portlet services (preferences being the big one)

This is all in the working_pluto branch if you are interested in 
checking it out. Looking at the remaining portlet related tasks I 
would anticipate a milestone release around January 8th. At that point 
I'll be checking up on other features that have been talked about and 
seeing what can and can't make it into the RC that I'll put out later 
in January.


Happy Holidays!

Re: [uportal-dev] uP3 status

2007-12-21 Thread Eric Dalquist
Also, a few things for people to think about as I'll be looking for a 
little guidance:


-I would like to add a  element to the chanpub format. It 
would only be used if the channel implemented the portlet adaptor 
interface but its contents would more closely model portlet preferences 
versus channel parameters and we could get rid of the 'PORTLET.' 
parameter prefix hack. I'd like to get people's thoughts on this.


-I'm going to need some hand-holding with CPDs & CChannelManager. My 
goal is to change the screen that asks you to enter the portlet 
definition id while publishing a portlet. Pluto 1.1 provides a registry 
of all correctly deployed portlets in the container so I would like to 
leverage that and provide a drop-down list of the available portlet 
definitions for the user to choose from. Is this reasonably possible 
with CChannelManager and CPDs?


-AndrewW: CPortletAdapter Chanpubs from uPortal 2.x are going to end up 
needing modification before importing into uPortal 3. We'll need to find 
time to talk about what changes need to be made and creating the 
appropriate conversion script.


Thanks
-Eric

I just got portlets rendering under pluto 1.1 today. This is a pretty 
big step as it is using new DAOs for portlet objects, a new request 
parameter processing pipline, a refactored rendering pipeline and a 
brand new portlet adaptor.


There are still some things missing, such as:
-Addressing the shared rendering variables in ChannelManager
-Completing portlet action support (render is only working currently)
-Completing some portlet services (preferences being the big one)

This is all in the working_pluto branch if you are interested in 
checking it out. Looking at the remaining portlet related tasks I 
would anticipate a milestone release around January 8th. At that point 
I'll be checking up on other features that have been talked about and 
seeing what can and can't make it into the RC that I'll put out later 
in January.

[uportal-dev] uP3 status

2007-12-21 Thread Eric Dalquist

I wanted to give everyone a pre-holiday update on the status of uP3.

I just got portlets rendering under pluto 1.1 today. This is a pretty 
big step as it is using new DAOs for portlet objects, a new request 
parameter processing pipline, a refactored rendering pipeline and a 
brand new portlet adaptor.


There are still some things missing, such as:
-Addressing the shared rendering variables in ChannelManager
-Completing portlet action support (render is only working currently)
-Completing some portlet services (preferences being the big one)

This is all in the working_pluto branch if you are interested in 
checking it out. Looking at the remaining portlet related tasks I would 
anticipate a milestone release around January 8th. At that point I'll be 
checking up on other features that have been talked about and seeing 
what can and can't make it into the RC that I'll put out later in January.
