Hello Everyone,
I've opened MYFACES-3375 and would like to propose a solution and receive
some feedback. The proposed solution is as follows:
1) New Class PortletBridgeDetector
- bridgeEnabled() - This method will use the Application Class loader
to determine if a Portlet Bridge Class is available in the container and as
such can be used to determine if Portlets are supported.
2) Class ExternalContextUtils.isPortlet - This MyFaces class/method should
be updated to get an instance of the PortletBridgeDetector and then return
the value of the PortletBridgeDetector.isEnabled().
We should be able to use the meta-inf/services discovery pattern to point
to the implementation of the PortletBridgeDetector that the user wants to
use ( WebSpherePortletBridgeDetector, ApachePortletBridgeDetector etc ).
What does everyone think about this proposed solution? I'd like to start a
discussion about it, once agreed upon a solution I'll work to implement and
test.
Thanks,
Paul Nicolucci
