Category: main taglib Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nils-Helge Garli (nilsga) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Adapt the library to a Portal Environment Initial Comment: The displaytag library does not support a portal environment out of the box. The reason for this is that the generation of regular URLs by composing it '?param1=value1¶m2=value2' style is not enough in a portal. Regular portals, such as WebSphere Portal Server adds a lot of extra state information, and encodes request parameters in a "portlet namespace" since a page in the portal can be composed of many portlets. A typical struts encoded portlet URL can look like this: /wps/PA_1_0_9D/html/view/viewCategories.do? spf_strutsAction=%212fhtml%212fview% 212fviewCategories.do%213fd-27002-p%3D%7B0% 2Cnumber%2C%23%7D%2126amp%3Bfetch% 3Dfalse&fetch=false&d-27002-p=%7B0% 2Cnumber%2C%23%7D As you can see, the entire query string is actually encoded in a request parameter that is decoded by the Portal itself. Because of this, special care is needed to create the Href and the RequestHelper objects. Since more and more companies are installing Portal Environments, my suggestion is to abstract the Href and RequestHelper class into interfaces and make them "Factory Style" so one can provide special implementations to support different portal operating environments. I'm currently working on an implementation for supporting WebSphere Portal Server and have successfully made it work there. Please let me know if you have any questions.
