[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal Users] - Suggestion on usage of Struts Portlet Bridge for jboss portl

[chetan_aggarwal_in]

Hi,

Following is the scenario:

I have a web application built using Struts 1.3. Now we want to convert it to a portal like application.

Following are choices:

1. Write portlet classes and copy code from Action Classes and add to portlet classes.
  - Advantage : Complete life cycle is portal based.
  - Disadvantage :  Struts application is no longer needed.

2. Use a struts portlet bridge
   - Advantages - Still will be able to use Action classes with portal like look and feel.
   - Disadvantage - I am not getting very comfort feeling with bridge as i am not sure full set features, industry practises. I have also read about certain limitations regarding (not able to user request.getParameter() style in JSP pages...)


Please share your thoughts/suggestions/experiences of using bridges.

Thanks and Regards,
Chetan
