Liferay Portlet-Servlet communication

0
votes

I have a Spring 3 MVC servlet webservice based application which I now intend to integrate with my liferay based system. In liferay we use IPC (Inter portlet communication) to communicate between portlets.

An event is broadcasted by a portlet which is then processed by other portlets and corresponding actions are taken. This communication is currently being carried out using IPC.

I have now deployed my servlet application in Liferay in an iframe. Will it be possible for me to establish similar processing of the broadcasted event? Any solutions for portlet-servlet communication?

Thank you.

IPC stands for Inter Portlet Communication, so, there has to be portlets and cannot be done between a servlet and a portlet. If you really wants to share data between a servlet and portlet, you can use the HttpSession to store the object and share. Also, you can call the Servlet by using PortalDelegateServlet from Liferay.

Also, when you use Iframe, you actually do not communicate between the iframe window and the window opener application.

Hope this helps
