Roller as Portlet App
Hello Roller World,
I am thinking of having a Music Database App that will integrate with Roller, will it be possible to package Roller as a portlet that will be deployed on the Jetspeed Portal Server and let Jetspeed handle authentication. I am still learning Java and also thinking of pursuing my masters in software engineering so please bear with me if this is not an appropriate topic to discuss here.
Thanks

Thanks, I think Matt's example with Equinox is what I had in mind

you might be able to use a similar technique:

hi,
not exactly sure what you mean ... do you want the roller application
user interfacce available as a portlet? my guess is that getting
roller's struts-based UI into a portlet is going to be tricky at best. i
don't know of any fool-proof mechanism for sucking in an arbitrary web
app into a portlet.
do you simply want to package the roller web app within the portlet web
app? a portlet web app is a superset of a "regular" web app, so no
problem there i would imagine.
another option is to build a portlet client that interacts with roller
by consuming rss or atom feeds, and the in-progress atom publishing
protocol or the existing metaweblog api support.
