Sun Java System Portal Server 7.1 Developer's Guide

Provider Class File Location

The provider classes must be deployed in the provider class base directory specified in the file PortalServer-DataDir/portals/portal-ID/config/desktopconfig.properties. By default, the provider class base directory is PortalServer-DataDir/portals/portal-ID/desktop/classes.

For hot deployment, the JAR file has to be dropped in the directory mentioned in providerClassBaseDir variable in the desktopconfig.properties file.
