Class GenericFacesPortlet

java.lang.Object

javax.portlet.GenericPortlet

javax.portlet.faces.GenericFacesPortlet

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.portlet.EventPortlet, javax.portlet.Portlet, javax.portlet.PortletConfig, javax.portlet.ResourceServingPortlet

@ConsumerType
public class GenericFacesPortlet
extends javax.portlet.GenericPortlet

The GenericFacesPortlet is provided to simplify development of a portlet that in whole or part relies on the Faces Bridge to process requests. If all requests are to be handled by the bridge, GenericFacesPortlet is a turnkey implementation. Developers do not need to subclass it. However, if there are some situations where the portlet doesn't require bridge services then GenericFacesPortlet can be subclassed and overriden.

Since GenericFacesPortlet subclasses GenericPortlet care is taken to all subclasses to override naturally. For example, though doDispatch() is overriden, requests are only dispatched to the bridge from here if the PortletMode isn't VIEW, EDIT, or HELP.

The GenericFacesPortlet recognizes the following portlet initialization parameters:

• javax.portlet.faces.defaultViewId.[mode]: specifies on a per mode basis the default viewId the Bridge executes when not already encoded in the incoming request. A value must be defined for each PortletMode the Bridge is expected to process.
• javax.portlet.faces.excludedRequestAttributes: specifies on a per portlet basis the set of request attributes the bridge is to exclude from its request scope. The value of this parameter is a comma delimited list of either fully qualified attribute names or a partial attribute name of the form packageName.*. In this later case all attributes exactly prefixed by packageName are excluded, non recursive.
• javax.portlet.faces.preserveActionParams: specifies on a per portlet basis whether the bridge should preserve parameters received in an action request and restore them for use during subsequent renders.

The GenericFacesPortlet recognizes the following application (PortletContext) initialization parameters:

• javax.portlet.faces.BridgeImplClass: specifies the Bridgeimplementation class used by this portlet. Typically this initialization parameter isn't set as the GenericFacesPortlet defaults to finding the class name from the bridge configuration. However if more then one bridge is configured in the environment such per application configuration is necessary to force a specific bridge to be used.

Returns a String defining the default render kit id the bridge should ensure for this portlet. If non-null, this value is used to override any default render kit id set on an app wide basis in the faces-config.xml.
