I agree the method signature is not very intuitive and it is a good tip
indeed.
Velocity:
public void doAction(RunData rundata, Context context)
protected void buildNormalContext(VelocityPortlet portlet, Context
context, RunData rundata)
JSP:
public void doAction(RunData rundata, Portlet portlet)
protected void buildNormalContext(Portlet portlet, RunData rundata)
I wanted to be as close as possible to Velocity :(
