[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: Configure Portlet-Instances

[matallen]

If you configure your portlet-instance.xml like this:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
  | <deployments>
  |    <deployment>
  |          <instance>
  |          	<instance-id>XPortletInstance</instance-id>
  |          	<portlet-ref>XPortlet</portlet-ref>
  | 		<preferences>
  | 			<preference>
  | 				<name>name</name>
  | 				<value>X-Portlet</value>
  | 			</preference>
  | 		</preferences>
  |           	<security-constraint>
  | 			<policy-permission>
  | 				<action-name>admin</action-name>
  | 				<role-name>role1</role-name>
  | 			</policy-permission>
  | 		</security-constraint>
  |          </instance>
  |    </deployment>
  |    <deployment>
  | 	<instance>
  | 		<instance-id>YPortletInstance</instance-id>
  | 		<portlet-ref>YPortlet</portlet-ref>
  | 		<preferences>
  | 			<preference>
  | 				<name>name</name>
  | 				<value>Y-Portlet</value>
  | 			</preference>
  | 		</preferences>
  | 		<security-constraint>
  | 			<policy-permission>
  | 				<action-name>admin</action-name>
  | 				<role-name>role1</role-name>
  | 			</policy-permission>
  | 		</security-constraint>
  | 	</instance>
  |   </deployment>
  | </deployments>

then you can retrieve the values within your portlet with this code:

renderRequest.getPreferences().getValue("name", "default_name");

and thus, make your X portlet act differentlyto your Y portlet instance accordingly

Hope this helps,
