Re: Wicket Portlets and Liferay
Bruno, Looking at the issue, this is the reason of the difference *Environment: Liferay's internal portlet container (does not happen on Sun's portlet container) **"1). Add to your portal-ext.properties this line portlet.container.impl=sun" *This configuration makes liferay use Sun Portlet Container, so if your are not configuring liferay like this, not sure what will work or what not, I always tried my examples using this configuration. I'm in the middle of the same problem as you, use wicket or not, well not much to say around it, we are just beginning, and we are using wicket and portals for the first time. We tried these things, perhaps it can help you: - icefaces Definitely not usable until liferay 5.3 is available, and no sure what will happen then. Personally I don't like JSF too much after dealing with it (2/3 years ago). - GWT it works, not sure if for all portlet-containers, or just liferay ( I think just for liferay, I should check with the guy that test it), as I remember the only important issue: not too friendly to transform a GWT application to a portlet, and GWT learning curve (although I think in this case it worth it's value). - GI (Tibco General Interface) This is an interesting option, sure it works, the learning curve is high, the trouble with it: you must get stuck to their look and feel and it's pure javascript. - There is a liferay framework also JSP/Struts thing You can imagine that if I don't like JSF too much, JSP/Struts won't be one of my favorites, but it is there and it works. If you like we can share some of this things in spanish, but there is not much more than I can say for now, just use my e-mail. Hope it helps PD: We share our bad english knowlege too :) tonio * * 2009/5/11 Bruno Ledesma > Tonio, > > what are the wicket/liferay versions that you are using? > > My problem with filtermapping and porltet names are currently registered in > liferay's JIRA > > You can take a look at: > http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-1911 > > But anyway, its working :) ! > > My fear right now is about using all wicket's features as a portlet.

Re: Wicket Portlets and Liferay
Tonio, what are the wicket/liferay versions that you are using? My problem with filtermapping and porltet names are currently registered in liferay's JIRA You can take a look at: http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-1911 But anyway, its working :) ! My fear right now is about using all wicket's features as a portlet. I need to know if there is any real world case of wicket apps as portlets. If there is, if uses a wide range of wicket's components and features... Knowing that, i'ĺl fell more safe to use wicket as my standard framework for portlets development in Liferay 5 (5.2). (sorry for the bad english :)) thanks !

Re: Wicket Portlets and Liferay
Bruno, Well that is a surprise for me, this is my web file kmkApplication /kmk/* REQUEST INCLUDE FORWARD and my portlet file kmkApplication wicketFilterPath /kmk and it works pretty well :) I remember another thing, while I was pasting this XML don't use * for the *supports* tag, I begin writting something like */* VIEW EDIT and finally need to put at least two items with mime-types *"text/html"* and *"text/xml"* if not it won't work. The important thing is just to get it working, hope it helps tonio On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 11:57 AM, Bruno Ledesma wrote: > Well, its kind of curious... the 2nd issue that you posted: > > 2).

Re: Wicket Portlets and Liferay
Well, its kind of curious... the 2nd issue that you posted: 2). Never call your appl/portlet-name with the same name as the url-mapping. In fact, I was not able to see my portlet if the portlet name and filter-mapping are differents. Just to confirm , when you say URL Mapping do you mean...? wickportlet /wickportlet/* REQUEST FORWARD INCLUDE I had to put a url-pattern equal to the portlet name, and without any different char (like '-'). The first issue, i didn't knew nothing about it. thanks!

Re: Wicket Portlets and Liferay
Hi Bruno, I'm a beginner in wicket, also in liferay and was able to use wicket to construct a portlet. My first experience was a bit tough, a lot of minor problems Take a look at all the things find in the internet, I was trying to make a simple doc with all the issues but I was not able. The 2 most important things I remember: 1). Add to your portal-ext.properties this line portlet.container.impl=sun 2). Never call your appl/portlet-name with the same name as the url-mapping.
