I figured it out...
If someone else is looking to do this:
Since you are opening a new session you need to go one level back and get
the servlet context itself before setting any attributes.
This can be done using:
request.getSession().getServletContext().setAttribute("a",a);
...
request.getSession().getServletContext().getAttribute("a"); //external
webapp in a new window

Hi,
I have some external previously made apps that I would like users to be
able access from Jetspeed. Instead of just creating a link to the page, I
would like to pass the external app some user information that can be used
for attribute purposes.
How would I pass values from a Jetspeed-2 Portlet to a new regular web app
window? (both Struts Based)
I don't think that setAttribute would work since it would open up a whole
new session right?
Thanks,
Akshay
