Custom Servlet

[Martin Phee, modificado 12 Anos atrás.]

I created a custom servlet and it was working fine. I updated the struts-config-ext.xml and dropped my jar in the lib directory.

Now I want to move it to a more maintainable spot. Is the EXT plugin the proper place and if so in which project? I've tried creating one today and placing my code in ext-impl, but it just keeps throwing a 500 error when calling liferay. No stack traces.

Any help would be appreciated.

Nevermind..... It's monday. I got it working, but the question still stands. Is there a proper package to place the files in?

Hi Martin,

I think it is better to create a new war and access your custom servlet from portal. This way you can easily migrate and undeploy when required.

EXT plugin is used to extend Liferay functionalities by overriding Liferay classes. If your servlet doesn't override Liferay classes, but uses Liferay classes, just make it into a Liferay plugin. If it doesn't use Liferay classes, just create an ordinary war file for your web project.
