We have links to different Java applications from a portlet with the intention that the user would be authenticated and authorized before getting to the links. I need to have handle on opened windows from these links. For example, if the user has already opened a window from a link and clicks the same link again, it should just focus on the opened window without loosing the work, and, if there is no window opened for that application, it should just open a new window. I am using JavaScript to open child windows from portal and am able to get handle on child windows, but stuck with a problem. When a child window opened from a browser, they run in the same IE process and seems to share the session. In my case, I need to open new windows, they should be running in a new sessions and I need to have handle on those windows.
I have tested two scenarios and neither of them gives desired results: 1. If the applications are running on same port, they are sharing the session and seem to work fine. They might be referring to objects in session with same name, resulting unwanted name-collision. 2. If the applications are running on different ports, while I am switching between applications, they are creating a new session every time I switch. I need to be able to work on two applications at the same time. Some of you might have come across this situation or if there is something similar already existing in Jetspeed. Please let me know how did you resolve and any if anyone has any idea.
