Developing Portlets with Apache Pluto
Discover the advantages of using Pluto (the reference implementation of the Java Portlet Specification (JSR-168) as a portlet development environment and the practical steps needed to set up such an environment.
Manage Apache Pluto within Geronimo
The Apache Pluto project is the reference implementation of the Java Portlet Specification. Find out how combining the Pluto project with Apache Geronimo's Java Platform, Java EE platform creates a highly flexible and powerful environment for building customizable and manageable systems using portals and portlets.
Portlets with FacesClient Components
Web apps developed with the thin client computing model exhibit performance gaps and user interface limitations. As an alternative, the IBM FacesClient Components (formerly called the Odyssey Browser Framework) provides a more effective model for developing Web apps. FacesClient Components work inside a portlet programming environment to deliver exceptional value in the form of richer user interfaces and improved performance.
Shortcut to Architect Oriented Portlet Patterns
Why spend your time struggling with the details of portlet APIs and best programming practices, when you can construct your portlets visually in Universal Modeling Language (UML)? This article explains how to use Enterprise Patterns to quickly build J2EE applications using IBM Rational Software Architect. These patterns and a model-driven approach enable you to produce portlets in a fraction of the time.
Write and Deploy Portlets with Apache Pluto
Portlets are powerful tools for aggregating data from multiple locations, integrating different applications, and providing a collaborative workspace for groups of users. To test portlets in development, Apache Pluto is a good choice. This article teaches you how to install and configure the Pluto portlet container inside the Apache Geronimo server.
