JSR 286 Eventing Portlet Example and XML Portlet Available in Portlet Repository

touripc portlet

Check out these portlets that were recently added to the Portlet Repository!

The Tour IPC Portlets showcase an example of using JSR 268 Eventing for interportlet communication.  There is a tour list portlet that contains a listing of tour locations and the date of the next tour.  When the user selects a tour from the list the tour detail, tour map, and tour weather portlets are updated with information about that tour.

The XML Portlet is a simple portlet that performs an XSL translation on an XML file. The XML and XSL files are specified in the portlet preferences

You'll find the binary, source code, and documentation for all of these portlets and several others at the Portlet Repository Downloads page.  If you didn't find the portlet you were looking for or you'd like to contribute a portlet, then drop us a line and let us know.

JSR286 explained : Resource Serving

Recently the JSR 286 draft was released for public review. The list of major changes in this new spec can be found in Deepak's blog. One of the new feature introduced in this new portlet spec is "Resource Serving". 

In short, the resource serving feature provides the ability for a portlet to serve a resource which may be protected by the portal security and can leverage portlet context. More details about this new feature can be found in my blog.
