Sun Java System Portal Server 7 2005Q4 Release Note Supplement

Infinite Event Cycle Detection

Events are generated in response to the user interaction (Generation 1) or in response to other events (Generation next). This could lead to more and more generations being created. To control the number of generations, the maxEventGenerations parameter in the desktopConfig.properties file can be configured for maximum number of generations of events per request. When the event creation exceeds the specified maximum number, a failure event, eventHandlingFailed will be sent to all the participating portlets.
