J2 Topology

[Stefan Weinert <su...@yahoo.de>]

When taking a closer look at the psml files of the demoportal I was quite confused about its structure.
  The documentation of the J2 pipeline is not very helpfull either:
  http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/guides/guide-pipeline.html
  
  The psml docs explain the structure of each filetype but the order they are processed is not.
  
  I'm missing some kind of overview. The demo-portal is probably too big, but a simple
   'smallest portal' (not too small but just two pages including three or four portlets) would probably help.
  
  If anyone has assembled such a basic portal I'd be happy to receive the psmls via email.

Stefan,

I am not sure what your question is. By "order they are processed"... do 
you mean how a request url selects a PSML page to display? If so, you 
should be able to find some more information on this by trolling the 
available documentation for the Profiler, Portal Site, and Page Manager 
components. Essentially, the request url is mapped into a WEB-INF/pages 
relative path by the Profiler and the Portal Site components. The Page 
Manager retrieves the PSML page to display. The rest of the request 
pipeline operates on the selected PSML and references the Portal Site 
component to render/aggregate the portlets, the page, and its menus as 
specified by the layout and portlet decorators..

Of course, feel free to send more questions here to the list!
