Using RWP for portlets [message #769526]

Hi,

Many modern web frameworks are based on portlets, which are functional
components that are render a page fragment that is integrated into a
complete web page. Is it possible to use RWT in such a context, or does
RWT need to control whole page?

Hi Hallvard,
there should not have problems to run a RAP application in a portlet
environment.
Best,
Ivan

To be precise: RAP/RWT works inside an iframe, it will probably not work
if you try to put it inside a div. It needs full control of its own
document, which can be part of another document as a frame.

I guess the question is more about RAP support for standard portal integration like portlet 2.0 standard (JSR-286), and correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that currently RAP does not support such integration.

Hi,

if you're going to allow more than one portlet containing RAP on one
page, you can't use cookies for session tracking (see [1]).

I was thinking about using RWT inside one or more (independent)
portlets, not integrating portlets inside an RWT UI.

If RWT is used inside a portlet, sessions management should be the
responsibility of the portlet container.
