Replacement for JSFPortletUtil?

[Bob Dietrich, modificado hace 9 años.]

In 6.1 and some earlier versions of Liferay, there was a class called JSFPortletUtil in util-bridges.jar. I used this to retrieve the PortletPreferences for my portlet.

In 6.2GA2 (haven't checked GA1), the class has disappeared. Not deprecated, simply removed.

How should portlet preferences be retrieved in 6.2? Thanks.

You can always do it the old fashioned way, use the ExternalContext to get the request and then access the portlet prefs that way...

Yeah, I guess that's an option I'd forgotten about:

PortletRequest req = (PortletRequest) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest();
PortletPreferences prefs = req.getPreferences();

or

PortletRequest req = LiferayFacesContext.getInstance().getPortletRequest();
PortletPreferences prefs = req.getPreferences();

Thanks.

very true,


in my case this worked

//PortletRequest portletRequest = (PortletRequest) JSFPortletUtil.getPortletRequest(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance());

FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext externalContext = facesContext.getExternalContext();
PortletRequest portletRequest = (PortletRequest) externalContext.getRequest();

More easy now:

LiferayFacesContext.getInstance().getPortletPreferences();
