> Steps:
> 1. Login web console
> 2. Go to "Plugin -> Assemble Server" portlet, and click the button - "Assemble a server", then get the current plugin list.
> 3. Go to "Plugin -> Install Plugins" portlet to install a new plugin
> 4. Go back to the "Assemble Server", and click the button, then the list is not updated.
> Proposed fix:
> 1.
> In "AssemblyListHandler.java", we cached the plugin list in portlet session, and that won't be updated after installing a new plugin by web console.
> If we add codes to refresh the session after installing a plugin in "Install Plugins" portlet, it seems to solve this problem. But it does not work for using the gsh to install new plugins.
> So, we have to let the AssemblyListHandler load the plugin list each time we open the portlet. And good news is that I did not see any significant performance falling.
> 2.
> And another method to solve this problem is that  "ask user to logout and login back when they install some plugins if they want to see their plugins list in the 'assemble Server' portlet", but is it acceptable?
> If the #1 is more reasonable, I can provide a patch. 
> Thanks
