Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) play a central role in enabling portal users to navigate among different pieces of content. This part in the series on Leveraging the WebSphere Portal programming model shows how to use and expand the capabilities of the portal URI resolution framework that was introduced in WebSphere Portal V6.0.1.This framework lets you define custom identifiers for any sort of content that is accessible through your portal. The identifiers take the form of a URI (Uniform Resource Identifier, RFC2396); that is, they start with a URI scheme that describes their purpose. For example, you could define an article: URI format for articles in a document store that are accessible through your portal. You can then address the identified content by plugging resolvers into the portal to display portal pages in a specific configuration that you define with these URIs. This article illustrates the URI resolution framework capabilities using an example that shows a custom URI mapping service. This service lets you address portal pages and control the state and content of portlets on pages with your own mapping definitions. This example shows you how to extend the power and flexibility of the built-in URL mapping feature that comes with WebSphere Portal.

As a Software Engineer, confronting daily challenges and identifying real problems are my bread and butter; here, I was staring at a road block. The JSR 168 standard does not define a way for a portlet to retrieve plain old URL parameters. The refactoring requirement called for converting the legacy IBM portlet API portlets to JSR 168. The swizzle was that the portlets needed access to URL parameters so that Web applications outside of WebSphere Portal could pass parameters to the portlets. This article is the result of meeting this trial and overcoming it. It describes how I used the services in IBM WebSphere Portal V6 and IBM WebSphere Application Server V6 to enable JSR 168 portlets to read URL parameters. You also see references that address the same or similar situation, but solve it with a different approach.

IBM Portlet for Outlook Web Access enables users to connect to an Exchange Server and access their accounts using Outlook Web Access. The portlet makes available all the features offered by Outlook Web Access, such as mail, calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes. An iframe with adjustable height is used to display the user's account information. With IBM Portlet for Outlook Web Access, users can perform routine mail-related tasks, such as reading, composing and sending, and deleting e-mails. Also, the users can schedule appointments, manage tasks, and store important contacts and information using this portlet.

To use data from external sources in your portal, and to control that use with personalization rules, you can easily extend the existing WebSphere Portal V6 personalization capabilities. In this series, you learn options for using external data with personalization rules, including creating and using application objects and resource collections. Then, you work through a short series of tutorials in which you write a rule that connects to a Web service to acquire weather data and to display a portlet only if the weather is poor in the user's area. Finally, you integrate an external source of data into a Web site (under the control of Web Content Management) using a personalization rule for content selection. This series is intended for Java developers who need to use externally sourced data in, and to apply personalization capabilities to, a portal. You must have a working knowledge of Java programming and WebSphere Portal Personalization concepts to complete the exercises in this series (starting with Part 2). You also need basic knowledge of IBM Workplace Web Content Management to work through the exercise in the final part.
