Utilising Spring in 1.x
Hi all,
I'm looking forward to working with Jetspeed-2 incorporating the Spring
integration. However I have to continue with 1.x for the time being
'till we can plan an upgrade.
I would however like to start replacing the EJB service calls currently
in our PortalActions and PortletActions. Has anyone tried this or have
tips as to how/where the Spring ApplicationContext should be loaded and
accessed? Perhaps adding a ref in the runData Object to pass onto the
different Objects?
Would welcome any thoughts on this with the goal of easy upgrade to
jetspeed-2.
Colin

Hi Colin,
Depending on how tightly you want to be bound to Jetspeed, you actually use
it's internal Spring engine. You can export your Spring beans/services
using the jetspeed-portlet.xml the access these via
PortletContext.getAttribute(). For a good, working example take a look at
jetspeed-portlet.xml under applications/pam/src/webapp/WEB-INF and
org.apache.jetspeed.portlets.pam.PortletApplicationDetail.java under
applications/pam/src/java.
Hth,

Hi Jing,
Thx for the tip. I did look into this a couple of months ago and may go
down this path at a later date.
What I'm looking for initially is how/where best to load spring so that
I can access (Spring) services from Portal- PortletActions.
I thought about a/the BasePortalAction for starters but is the context
file not read every time an action is accessed or does spring cache this
in the background?

Hi Colin,
Have you looked at Spring Portlet Support?
http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/spring/display/JSR168/Home
It's currently still in the sandbox, but from my experience it's fairly
stable by now. Most of the APIs are directly ported from Spring MVC, so
it's also easy to learn if you have used the latter.
HTH.
