Single WebApp

["Rudnev, Alex (OCTO)" <Al...@dc.gov>]

I was wondering, has somebody tried to deploy WSRP4J as non-cross-context
application and include all the portlets / portlet applications insight
single *.war file.

 

How important is this cross-context requirement (as I understand it comes
from Pluto and it should have something to do with invoking another web-app
from Pluto web-app, i.e. resolution for servlet lookup or environment class
cast issues)? Will not it be enough to put Pluto into common libs, does
WSRP4J introduce additional requirements on common libs (I don't see where
it could be, but just in case)? Do we depend on Tomcat if we use Pluto, and
again, are there any additional requirements on container because of some
WSRP4J implementation aspects?

 

Thanks,

Ru

Correct, that's why it is there. Portlets are deployed as seperate webapps.

No it doesn't.

No in general we should be independant of tomcat, however the 
build/install is made for tomcat users for now.
What do you mean by requirements on the container because on the WSRP4J 
impl aspects?
