Drew,
Very nice. I know this feature has been asked for more than a few
times.
+1 for inclusion of the link-to-tab feature in uPortal 2-6-patches
towards 2.6.2 and in uP3.
+1 I'm for this too. 2 questions about Pearson's implementation:
1. What's the behavior if you pass in a tab that doesn't exist?
default/current tab?
2. Can you pull tabs which are not currently in your layout, e.g.
through a TransientLayoutManager or some such?
Please also update the uPortal Manual wiki space to document the
feature when you add it.
I'd also love to see that pretty-URL-to-tab-linking-URL filter
included in the core codebase.
+1 on this as well, prettier URLs would be a nice win. I do also think
a routing layer in the request flow into the portal would be very
generally useful -- it could give us a nice spot to do shortcut links
and others.
In the past I've played with the urlrewrite filter [1] which provides
mod_rewrite style capabilities for Java applications -- seems like it
might be a convenient shortcut for this particular use case, as well
as supporting additional configurability.
