Thanks Ramaekers, Most of the information I have have been gleamed from the archives and various documentation I could find at jakarta-jetspeed and the bluesunrise tutorial. TO be more specific, what I wanted to know is how to extend the Portlet API itself. I located an interface called PortletState where the various actions supported by a PortletState (maximize, minimize etc). What I really want to understand is if I created a custom implementation of this interface by subclassing AbstractPortletControl, how do I tie this class in with jetspeed?
