Creating an Oracle WebCenter Interaction Portlet Using the .NET Portlet Toolkit

To create a new Oracle WebCenter Interaction portlet, use the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 templates provided with the .NET Portlet Toolkit. The templates are pre-configured to include references to required assemblies, including the Oracle WebCenter Interaction Development Kit (IDK), Portlet API libraries, the Logging Spy infrastructure and the Oracle WebCenter Interaction Development Kit (IDK) user profile provider.

A new portlet project includes a simple portlet page in the Default.aspx/Default.aspx.cs files. This page extends the ALIPortletPage base class, which provides access to preferences, user information and IDK resources such as the PortletRequest and PortletResponse.

Follow the steps below to create a new portlet using the ALIPortletPage template.

  1. Create a new Oracle WebCenter Interaction portlet project in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005:
    1. To create a new project, click File > New > Web Site .
