Consuming a .NET WSRP Portlet in WebLogic Portal
To consume remote portlet resources in WebLogic Portal
(WLP), you must create a Remote Portlet using either the IDE tools
(described here) or WLP online administration tools. Once created,
Remote Portlets (.portlet files) can be added to a WebLogic Portal
portal description (.portal file).
To create the Remote Portlet using the WebLogic Portal IDE
tools, follow the steps below. For detailed instructions on using
these tools, see the WLP documentation.
Note: In order to produce portlets,
the WSRP Producer must be installed and correctly configured within
the local IIS instance. You must know the address of the WSRP Producer's
WSRPService.wsdl file. The URL will vary depending on how IIS is configured,
but it should be similar to the following: http://{wsrpproducer hostname:port}/wsrpproducer1.1/1.0/WSRPService.wsdl.
To ensure that the WSRP Producer is running, paste this URL into the
address bar of a web browser.
For detailed instructions on
creating a WSRP portlet in WebLogic Portal, see Creating Remote Portlets, Pages and Books in
the WLP documentation.
WebLogic Portal supports WSRP Preferences, but in order to
use preferences, the .portal file describing a portal desktop in WebLogic
Portal must be converted from "file" mode to "streaming" mode. For
details, see
Creating a Desktop in the WebLogic Portal
documentation. Also, in order to modify preferences, a user must be
logged into WebLogic Portal. See the WebLogic Portal documentation
for additional information on configuring login.
