Creating Oracle WebCenter Interaction Preference Pages Using
the .NET Portlet Toolkit
To create a preference page, use the VisualStudio.NET 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.
The ALIPreferencePage template provides the same functionality
as an ALIPortletPage and includes additional features for rendering
and editing a preference page. By default, the page renders a title
bar with "Finish" and "Cancel" buttons that match the standard ALI
preference page style. The appearance and functionality of the title
bar can be changed by overriding the
DrawTitleBar() method from the base class.
To complete the preference page,
you must implement four methods:
| Method Name |
Description |
| GetTitleBarText() |
Read-only property to get the text for the title bar. |
| GetFinishButtonText() |
Read-only property to get the text for the finish button. |
| GetCancelButtonText() |
Read-only property to get the text for the cancel button. |
| SavePreferences() |
Method implemented to update preference values for any preferences
changed on the page. |
