Portlet configuration events (with default customizer?)

2005-01-24 Thread OlsonE
I have created a Jetspeed 1.5 portlet action that takes some portlet config. parameters, caches some data from an external source (based on the config parm.'s,) and displays the results in the portlet. I am using the default customizer to handle all of the portlet config. parameters, and my

Has anyone successfully deployed Jetspeed 1.5 in a JBoss 4 container? Originally, Jetspeed would hang on startup, but I found the following blog which demystified things a bit: http://landisfamily.dnsalias.org/mt/archives/rblog/36.html I was able to get things working by deleting JBoss's

Jay - I have seen this as well - it normally occurred after I had a template blow up, or I was replacing templates on the fly. I changed the base line in /WEB-INF/templates/vm/layouts/default.vm (normally about the 3rd line) from: base href=$clink to base href=$clink.setURI().external I

Bjorn, Oscar - I have never seen the problems you are mentioning below - my action handler methods ALWAYS execute before the build*() methods on the active portlets. We are currently using Velocity-based portlets. When we specify the action parameter in a form, we use the following code

Action methods obtaining references to the Portlet

Hello - We have a situation in some of our portlets (using Jetspeed 1.5) where we wish to place values in the portlet's session within some of our action methods. We have been using the PortletSessionState helper class to do this (PortletSessionState.setAttribute(Portlet portlet, RunData

Is it possible to create custom portlet modes?

2004-06-22 Thread OlsonE
We would like to create a new portlet mode to display a help page on a per-portlet basis (similar to other modes, like info, configure, etc.) Is there an easy way to do this with Jetspeed 1.5? Also, will there be direct support for this sort of thing in Jetspeed 2? Thanks in advance, Eric

Maximized Views in XSL/Velocity Portlets?

2004-06-01 Thread OlsonE
I am writing an XSL document to transform an existing XML document to XHTML, but I cannot find a way to specify a different view when the portlet is maximized. For example, in normal mode, I only want the portlet to show summary information. When maximized, I want to show much more detailed

Jetspeed 1 - Jetspeed 2 Migration Questions

2004-05-19 Thread OlsonE
Does anyone have any idea how painful a migration will be from Jetspeed 1 (1.5 in our case) to Jetspeed 2? We have not begun any portlet development yet - are there any major issues (differences between JS 1 2) that we should be aware of, and could possibly work around so migration issues
