I've been digging through this list, the jakarta portlet catalog
and several other places but haven't been able to find an example
doing something similar to what I would like.
What I want to do is write a Java class that extends AbstractPortlet
or ApplicationPortlet. However, this class will call itself within a
form element. A simple pared down code without all the method calls
and imports follows. Is this possible or am I way off?
I've done similar things will servlets but can't seem to make it
work with portlets.
Thanks in advance for any help.
public class JobSubmit extends AbstractPortlet
{
public ConcreteElement getContent(RunData data)
{
String text = null;
String action = null;
Boolean success;
ParameterParser params = data.getParameters();
action = params.getString("action");
if (action == null)
{
text = "<form
method=\"POST\"action=\"/jetspeed/servlet/JobSubmit\">\n" +
"<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"action\"
value=\"submitjob\">\n" +
..... //additional form elements here
"</form>
}
else if(action.equals("submitjob"))
{
//get job parameters here
//submit job based on parameters
success = jobsubmit( ... );
if(success)
{
text = "Job submitted succesfully!";
} else {
text = "Job failed!";
}
}
return (new StringElement(text));
}
