[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Portal] - Sharing session attribute between servelt and portlet

[sbiwal]

Hi I am working with JBoss Portal 2.6.2, deployed with JBoss AS 4.2. I have the following situation -

A thirdparty class calls a servlet (myServlet). Now this servlet should update a portlet (myPortlet) based on the parameters sent by the thirdparty class.

In the doGet fucntion of myServlet I set the parameter received as a session attribute by -
request.getSession().setAttribute(param, value);

However when I get to the doView function of the portlet, this session attribute is lost.

If I try a vice-versa scenario (setting attribute in Portlet and then reading from servlet) it doesn't work either !!!

Please help !!
