Does anyone have any comments on this?
While looking through the (many) websphere jar files I thought I located what looked
like the portlet API.
There were jetspeed packages, however, it seemed to me that IBM had totally
reengineered the jetspeed stuff they
supply. Jetspeed portlets extend AbstractPortlet, while WebSphere portlets extend
PortletAdaptor.
What's worse, WebSphere does have an AbstractPortlet class, but it looks nothing like
jetspeed AbstractPortlet class.
Unless I can determine otherwise, there's NO WAY that you can switch a portlet between
jetspeed and WebSphere.
We had a requirement to have some sort of portlet transparency (being able to run
under different portal vendors).
Until a portlet API is adopted by everyone, we will not (easily) be able to realize
this.

Subject: About Portlets
Hi
I am new to portlet stuff, just looking around the providers
and docs. Can somebody tell me if the Portlet API is a standard?
Is it same as the one used by WebSphere?
Is JetSpeed similar to WebSphere Portal server? If yes, how easy is
it to switch my portlets from WebSphere to JetSpeed?
thanks,
