Develop portlets
Get an overview of the process of creating portlets, learn about the concepts of the APIs used to develop portlets, and view the samples to get you started. Also, learn about integrating features such as single sign-on, cooperative sharing of information using the property broker, and migrating Struts applications to the portlet environment.WebSphere Portal can support portlets written to the standard portlet API as well as portlets written to the legacy IBM portlet API. .
- If you are not an experienced Java™ developer...
- you can quickly integrate many of existing resources into WebSphere Portal without developing own portlets.
- If you have Java and servlet development experience but are new to portlet development...
- you should start by reading Portlet concepts wcm7
and Standard portlet API wcm7. When you are ready to start developing portlets, see Understand the basics wcm7 for samples that demonstrate common features of the API.
- If you have developed portlets with the IBM Portlet API...
- Standard portlet API wcm7
describes the new standards and provides links to topics that describe the difference between the two APIs and how to migrate to the standard.
- If you have experience with Struts applications...
- Struts Portlet Framework wcm7
explains how to take an existing Struts application and convert it to a portlet.
- If you are already familiar with portlet development using either the standard portlet API or the IBM portlet API...
- Portlet communication wcm7
describes how you can enable portlets to share information with other portlets on the page, using the property broker service. Collaborative Services API wcm7 explains how you can integrate collaborative functionality into portlets, such as online status, chat, and e-mail.
