VIEWSTATE_PARAM parsing in StateManager doesn't always work
-----------------------------------------------------------
Key: PORTLETBRIDGE-37
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PORTLETBRIDGE-37
Project: MyFaces Portlet Bridge
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Impl
Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 2.0.0
Reporter: Michael Freedman
Assignee: Michael Freedman
Currently the code that parses for the VIEWSTATE_PARAM in the Bridge's
StateManager is rudimentary (primarily for performance reasons). If checks to
see if there is a closing /> to ensure it doesn't read beyond the end of the
tag. However some environment (Trinidad) close the element just with a '>'.
When this check fails we return null meaning the parameter isn't
located/preserved. State is lost by the bridge. The bridge should be more
tolerant. At a minimum it should recognize either end of tag. But failing
this and other checks it should do more extensive parsing to ensure proper
execution -- i.e. it should work regardless of whether the name field is before
the value field and/or '>' is a character in the view state param's value.
