portlet actions min/max/close/edit.

I'm looking at where is the actions for each portlet is defined . For eg. 
the actions for Min, Max, Edit and Close.
I'm looking at to define a edit page and bind it to the edit action of my 
portlet .

Thanks

- Shan

In your answer I can see only the portlet action mapping to a java class . 
But what I'm looking for is where is the api for eg.
what to call for Edit,  what to call for Minimize etc is defined? .  How 
does it know which api to call from the class for different
events?

Ah, you are looking to provide your own Customizer for a portlet.  The docs 
are unfortunately a little light on this.  For an example of how to do this 
with Velocity, check out the customizer for the very cool 
DatabaseBrowserPortlet and the entry in the demo-portlets.xreg the binds 
the customizer to the DatabaseBrowserAction.

 From demo-portlets.xreg:

     <portlet-entry name="DatabaseBrowserTest" hidden="false" type="ref"
         parent="DatabaseBrowserPortlet" application="false">
         <meta-info>
             <title>DatabaseBrowserTest</title>
             <description>Simple Test Database Browser Portlet 
Example</description>
         </meta-info>
         <parameter name="template" value="database-browser-portlet" 
hidden="false"/>
         <parameter name="customizeTemplate" 
value="database-browser-customize" hidden="false"/>
         <parameter name="action" 
value="portlets.browser.DatabaseBrowserAction" hidden="false"/>
         <parameter name="sql" value="select * from coffees" hidden="false"/>
         <parameter name="windowSize" value="5" hidden="false"/>
         <media-type ref="html"/>
     </portlet-entry>

Hope that points you in the right direction..  Anyone with a more concrete 
answer feel free to chime in as I'm relatively new to this as well.
