Hi,
My requirement of portal is slightly different from the general use. Let me explain it. I
have to access the portal page from within my application. i.e. I would like to include
the portal page in my application page say dashboard.
The problem here i am facing is that the portlets/portal pages work on a differnt
webcontext (say portal) and my application works on a different context (say abc). Since
they are two different web contexts, i cannot include the page of one context into the
other. I tried it but couldn't find a clean solution.
( One option is to use getServletContext("Portal") from within my dashboard page
then call the jsp include to get the protal pages. I do not want to use it as there are
many problems with it including passing the security credentials etc...).
So the typical scenario would look something like this.
| ____________abc/dashboard.jsp________________________
| | _______________________________________________ |
| | | | |
| | | Dashboard page contents | |
| | |_______________________________________________| |
| | |
| | __________portal/portalPage___________________ |
| | | | |
| | | Included portal page inside dashboard | |
| | | | |
| | | _____________ _____________ | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | Portlet1 | | Portlet2 | | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |____________ | |____________ | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | _____________ _____________ | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | Portlet3 | | Portlet4 | | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |____________ | |____________ | | |
| | | | |
| | |_______________________________________________| |
| | |
| |_____________________________________________________|
The requirement arose because we want to include a few portlets in the existing
application. i.e upgrade the existing dashboard to a portal page and all other pages would
remain same.
I just wanted to know if this kind of setup is possible with JBoss Portal or not? If
possible how? and what are the implications on the security modue
(Authentication/Authorizaiton)?
awaiting a quick response,
Thank you,
Bhupesh
