Just a small background on what I'm doing. I'm writing JSR-286 portlets, mostly using GWT. I'm taking advantage of the newer portlet eventing features and having them distributed to the GWT portlets in real time, using a Comet implementation similar to what is shown in the book "Google Web Toolkit Applications" by Ryan Dewsbury. In my current implementation, I have a comet servlet set up for each GWT portlet.
It's easy to see what the problem is. Right now I only have two GWT portlets developed, so there are two comet servlets being connected to at the same time. The load is not so bad with just two applications, but the portal will expand with new applications in the coming days. Six comet connections at a time per user is a very bad idea, so I want to cut it down to just one connection per user. Implementing a comet servlet with a multiple "channel" support for each kind of GWT app in the portal will be the easy part. What I want to do, however, is set up a single GWT application on the portal page that will handle the comet connection and let other, separate GWT applications communicate with it, receiving any new events the apps subscribed for. What I want to know is if it is possible to have two complete seperate GWT applications, served on the same HTML page, communicate with each other within the browser? I know I could aggregate all GWT applications into one but that is not the goal of the project. They absolutely require to be portlets.
