[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Portal] - Re: Virtual hosts and multiple portal server instances

[julien@jboss.com]

ok, I was not sure of that.

I am looking forward now to add a different portal object tree for the dashboard feature.

It could be stored in parallel of the existing tree with a new set of tables or could be stored in the actual tables using some trick. My concern is that it does not bring schema change that requires migration step.

I tried to look back at the patches your proposed a while ago in the jira where you seemed to propose something like that. Do you think it is possible to hold "parallel" trees in the same tables or would it require a new set of tables ?

The biggest issue I see today is that the "path" column would conflict, for example :

"" (default actual context) + "a.b"

"a" ("a" context) + "b"

would have the same path value.

And today I don't see an alternative solution other than adding a new set of tables for the dashboard.
