[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: Using Seam for porlet communication

[jarkko@jab.fi]

Hmm. In org.jboss.seam.portlet.PortletSessionImpl.java it says
 
  | public Object getAttribute(String key)
  |    {
  |       return session.getAttribute(key);
  |    }
  | 
  | public void setAttribute(String key, Object value)
  |    {
  |       session.setAttribute(key, value);
  |    }
  | 
  | 
which according to the Javadoc http://docs.jboss.org/jbportal/spec/docs/javax/portlet/PortletSession.html#getAttribute(java.lang.String)   gets/puts the attributes in PORTLET_SCOPE which is defined to be portlet private only. And the APPLICATION_SCOPE is portal "wide" scope.

Maybe in Seam we need new context APPLICATION_PORTLET_SCOPE (or PORTAL_SCOPE) that uses the Portlet APPLICATION_SCOPE for storage. ( http://docs.jboss.org/jbportal/spec/docs/javax/portlet/PortletSession.html#APPLICATION_SCOPE ). IMHO the portlet APPLICATION_SCOPE name is causing some naming conflits and should be renamed to PORTAL_SCOPE in the spec.

Or just simply hard code and change the PortletSessionImpl to always use the (portlet) APPLICATION_SCOPE.
