Ate Douma resolved JS2-204.
---------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.1-dev

The patch provided for JS2-275 by Santiago more or less resolved this issue 
already, and it is now possible to switch between secure mode and non-secure 
modes, 
although this currently only works using standard port transitions (80->443 and 
443->80).
See: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-275#action_12318383 

The solution I originally intended to provide still would be a more complete 
and generic one, but has become harder to implement now that there are so many 
different servlet paths through which the portal can be invoked. Tthere isn't 
enough time left before the 2.1 release to start working on that, and actually 
I haven't heard anyone asking for it either. 

As we now do have a solution for this issue, this isn't a bug anymore, so I'm 
closing this one.

Maybe for a next release we should reconsider if the more generic solution 
really is needed. If so, we can create a new enhancement ticket for it.

> PLT.7.1.2 PortletURL security
> -----------------------------
> The PortalURL doesn't yet honor a request for the explicit generation of 
> secure or non-secure PortletURLs as required by the Portlet Specification.
> Whatever the setting, a non-secure url is always generated.
> I will implement this requirement using the same solution as provided by 
> Jeremy Boyes for the Pluto PortalDriver.
> See: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLUTO-82.
> This solution will use two different Servlet Mappings in web.xml for the 
> JetspeedServlet: a non-secure (what we have now already: /portal/*) and a 
> secure (/secure/portal/*).
> For the secure mapping a security-constraint with transport-garantee 
> CONFIDENTIAL will be defined, effectively securing any access through this 
> mapping.
> These mappings are, and also need be, defined in 
> WEB-INF/conf/jetspeed.properties too.
> The AbstractPortalURL will read these properties to determine which path to 
> use for secure and non-secure PortletURLs.
> Note, these paths will *only* be used when a secure url must be generated 
> while the current request is not, or visa versa.
> This means, other mappings can still be used (we have also a /jetspeed/* 
> mapping defined although I don't know why or if it is needed anymore) as long 
> as there isn't a switch from secure to non-secure or visa versa.
> Absolute URL Rendering
> ----------------------
> Another problem the above solution will partly solve is the current absolute 
> URL rendering (including the Scheme, ServerName and Portnummer in an URL) 
> which poses problems with Proxy configurations as has been recently been 
> reported on the list by Scott Heaberlin.
> By using different mappings for the secure and non-secure access we don't 
> need to prefix the urls with a HTTP:// or HTTPS:// scheme anymore.
> I will also remove the Scheme, Servername and Portnummer encoding in url 
> generation as currently is done by the JetspeedPowerTool, 
> JetspeedVelocityViewServlet and the ContentLocatingRequestWrapper of the 
> ContentServer.
