Hi All,
I am using WPS 6.0. I have to configure the search portlet (base portlet) to search the file or document in the Windows file system in my local machine and the Network file system. Any idea how to implement this? If you have any ideas for this implementation just let me know.

Thanks.
Ganesh

Thanks Cameron. I will check both Struts and JSF portlets.

Hi All,
I am using RAD 7.0 and WPS 6.0 for portal application development. I have developed some JSR 168 portlets. As for as I know Struts-Hibernate is a good combination. I have few questions here.

1.Will the JSR 168 Struts portlet support Hibernate?
2. Will the JSR 168 Struts portlet support Spring?

If so how to implement them? Any External .jsr files to be imported to my portlet project ?

3. Is Portlet-to-portlet communication possible in Struts portlet?

Please let me know.

Thanks.

Hi,
I am using Struts2 hybernate and Spring. My requirement is to get the user records from the database, store it in a List and display the same in jsp page (as a table). I have written the query for getting the user records from the database. I have the List in my action class populated with values(taken from database). How can I display the list values in a table in the jsp page?

My code in action class is like this

List brandDetailID = obj.select(brandID);

Can anybody please give me a suggestion?

Thanks.

Hi,
I am using WPS 5.1.0.1. We have developed, deployed few custom portlets (JSR 168) and added those to Portal page. There is one portlet called locale portlet. In locale portlet one dropdown list box is present. It contains locales like en_us,de etc., When the user changes the locale in dropdown, this parameter(or value) should be stored somewhere else globally and accessed by all the portlets in the page. Not in User Registry. I mean to say it will not affect the user's locale. Once receiving the locale the portlets will be displayed in the new locale.

I tried with PortletSession with application scope. As the portlets are in different .war files it failed. Is there any good way to do this. Please let me know if you have some idea?

Thanks.

HI,
I am developing JSR 168 portlet. In one of the jsp page I have the following code for creating url


<a href='<portlet:actionURL><portlet aram name="addnewlink" value="addnewlink" /><portlet aram name="languagechoosen" value="<%= languageSelected%>"/></portlet:actionURL>'>

The problem is that the first param is not getting passed. I could not get the same in processAction method by using request.getParameter("addnewlink") method.
If I pass a single param it is working fine. Am I missing something. Please let me know.

Thanks.

Hi Cameron,
I want to do it by using PUMA. May I use it in JSR 168 portlet? If so can I import the package and directly use it in the CustomPortlet.java class Or any changes to be done in Portal properties files. Please let me know.

Hi Cameron,
Actually we are deveoping custom portlets for our portal. We have a portlet called "News portlet". The portal has around 30 pages right now. The "News portlet" should be present in all the pages. Assuming that the layout for all the pages is "T" layout. It should not be done by accessing all the 30 pages and clicking the Edit Page link then adding the News portlet. The portlet should be associated with the Layout. Whenever the "T" layout is choosen for a particular page this portlet should be automatically added and appear in the page. How do I achive this? Please let me know.

Thanks.

Hi,
I am planning to do clustering in WPS 5.1. I have some queries
regarding the same.
If there are 2 instances of WPS (after clustering is done), then will
they share the same database or different databases?
While installing a single portlet called sample portlet, will 2
instances of the portlet be installed with different names or a single
instance be installed? If you have ideas please let me know.

Thanks,
Ganesh

Hi,
I am using WPS 5.1. In the portal, When I choose "T" layout in any
page in the portal, a particular portlet should be added
automatically. It should not be added by clicking the Add button in
the Edit Layout. The portlet should be added thru coding. If you have
any ideas please let me know.

Thanks.

Hi,
I am planning to appear for IBM Websphere portal Server Certification. It contains two exams No 397(deployment and Administration) and No 399 (Application Development).
Which one I can prefer?
These exams are for Portal Version 5.1 The lattest version is 6.0 If I got the certification on version 5.1 Will it be useful? or they will stop these exams and start a new exam on 6.0?

Has anybody appeared for the exams? If so please let me know.
If I prepare for the exam 397 or 399 where can I get the "FAQ" and Mock Exams.

I will appreciate if you guide me for the exam.
The new person who is willing to take the exam like me also may join this thread and post your queries.
