Additional Development References
The following references provide additional information
for use in AquaLogic development.
CSP
CSP is a platform-independent protocol based on the open standard
of HTTP 1.1. The syntax of communication between the portal and remote
servers is defined by CSP. CSP defines custom headers and outlines
how ALI services use HTTP to communicate and modify settings. The
AquaLogic Interaction Development Kit (IDK) provides simplified, stable
interfaces that allow you to write code that communicates using CSP.
AquaLogic .NET Application Accelerator / .NET Portlet Toolkit
The AquaLogic .NET Application Accelerator is a collection of libraries
and Visual Studio 2005 integration features that support easy authoring
of ASP.NET 2.0 and WSRP portlets. The AquaLogic .NET Application Accelerator
includes the .NET Portlet Toolkit. Portlets can be authored for both
BEA portal environments: AquaLogic Interaction (ALI) and WebLogic
Portal (WLP). Development Guide are available for both environments:
Analytics APIs
AquaLogic Analytics delivers comprehensive reporting on activity
and content usage within portals and composite applications, allowing
you to know and meet user information needs. The OpenUsage and Query
APIs provide access the Analytics functionality from custom applications.
JSR-168 Container
The AquaLogic Interaction JSR-168 Container is an implementation
of the JSR-168 JCP standard for portlet authoring. For details on
developing portlets with the ALI JSR-168 Container 1.2, see the JSR-168 Container Developer Guide.
For other information on the JSR-168 Container, see the JSR-168 Container documentation index page.
