About ProcessAction

[Manish Shinde]

I m new to this portlets development.
I have some doubts in ProcessAction method.

In the following code my doView() method is called but not ProcessAction method

when ProcessAction method gets called ?

/**
 * Portlet implementation class NewPortlet
 */
public class NewPortlet extends GenericPortlet {

    public void init() {
        viewJSP = getInitParameter("view-jsp");
    }

    public void processAction(
            ActionRequest actionRequest, ActionResponse actionResponse)
        throws IOException, PortletException {

        //super.processAction(actionRequest, actionResponse);
        System.out.println("------------->>>>indide process action");
    }
    
    public void doView(
            RenderRequest renderRequest, RenderResponse renderResponse)
        throws IOException, PortletException {
    	   System.out.println("------------->>>>indide view ");
    	   String str=renderRequest.getParameter("user");
    	   System.out.println("--------------->>>>>"+str);
        include(viewJSP, renderRequest, renderResponse);
    }

    protected void include(
            String path, RenderRequest renderRequest,
            RenderResponse renderResponse)
        throws IOException, PortletException {

        PortletRequestDispatcher portletRequestDispatcher =
            getPortletContext().getRequestDispatcher(path);

        if (portletRequestDispatcher == null) {
            _log.error(path + " is not a valid include");
        }
        else {
            portletRequestDispatcher.include(renderRequest, renderResponse);
        }
    }
 
    protected String viewJSP;

    private static Log _log = LogFactoryUtil.getLog(NewPortlet.class);

}

Thanks in advance.

The doView method is called on rendering the portlet, do you perform any action once the portlet is rendered?
processAction method is not called on initial load of portlet.
