Hi all,
We're trying to install a portlet on Liferay... and we've achieved it.
But it has something strange in the code. With both JBoss Portal and
Jahia we need to modify the getUID method (by extending an abstract
NuxeoPortlet class) by getting contextId as an attribute of the request.
We thought that contextId was needed for something... but we don't
care about it.
Well, now, the request.getAttribute gives us a null value... and all
is running ok.
Then, we need to know... what do we use "contextId" for ??
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
The getUID() method should return a unique identifier for the calling
portlet instance, depending of the portal: Jahia puts a request
attribute "org.portletapi.contextid" which is an unique identifier for
the portlet instance.
This identifier is used to store / retrieve the global preferences
shared by all the users of this instance, via the
NuxeoPortlet#getGlobalPreferences(String uid) method. It means you can
have 2 instances of the same portlet in your portal but with different
preferences (2 search portlets with different registered nuxeo server).
