Maybe i did not explain very well what i mean. I'll try again : I have a portlet application ("myportletapp") composed of a portlet ("fooPortlet") and a servlet ("bahServlet").
A URL to the portlet looks something like that : http.//localhost/jetspeed/portal/_ns:Zm9vUG9ydGxldA== But a URL to the servlet like that : http.//localhost/myportletapp/bahServlet How can these requests be in the same session ? They just cannot be in the same session because they refer two different paths ( two different contexts ) even though they belong to the same portlet application! Portlet spec says that a request to a portlet and a request to a servlet of the same portlet application must be in the same session. Why do PortletURLs refer to the portal and not directly to the portlet itself ? Imagine a PortletURL would look like that : http.//localhost/myportletapp/fooPortlet?... Then a request to the servlet ( http.//localhost/myportletapp/bahServlet ) would automaticly be recognized by the app server as belonging to the same session. Are there any reasons why a PortletURL refers to the portal ? I dont't see the advantage... > Action and Render URLs are written back to the portal. > The portal figures out that an action is requested for a > given portlet > (in the ns: url the action is encoded), dispatches to the portlet to > execute the action, and then renders the whole page Well, i think that is the problem, because Action and Render URLs refer to the portal but a URL to a servlet inside a portlet-application does not ! > The servlet spec says that: > HttpSession objects must be scoped at the application (or servlet > context) level. > The underlying mechanism, such as the cookie used to establish the > session, can be the same for different contexts, but the object > referenced, including the attributes in that object, must never be > shared between contexts by the container. Thats right, but i don't want to share a session between contexts. I want to my jsps, servlets and portlets that belong to one portlet application to have the same session, as it is described in portlet specification. > > PS: When will JS1.6 Fusion be released ? > > > well im just swamped with work lately, 1.6 is pretty much ready to go > maybe i can find some time next week... > im sorry, but someone else could step up, because im > currently in full > swing of a very aggressive project development cycle and im > finding it > difficult to find time to even respond to this list these days I'm looking forward to the release !
