    Novell Portal to JBoss Portal

    opapo

      I am currently working with the Novell Portal and am disenchanted with it. I want to convert my Novell Portal applications to my JBoss portal. I can bring over the JSPs, javaActivities(basically servlets), and dependant files, but there are some routing features in the Page flow documents that I can not seem to duplicate in JBoss. Novell uses an XML document to define routing parameters. How can I do this in JBoss?

      I am running:

      JBoss AS 4.0.2
      Novell exteNd Suite 5.2.1
      JBoss Portal 2.0


      Thanks,
      -Daniel

          Is the routing you speak of, some sort of workflow component? We don't have any workflow integration, yet.

            I talked to a person who understands the workflow/pageflow model of the Novell Portal. A pageflow is a subset of a workflow. A page flow will send a user to a different page depending upon attributes in the request. A workflow will route a document to a specified area depending upon the state of the document. This is a near as I can get to explaining it.

            You said this is not implemented yet. When would something like this be available?

              It is being sketched so we cannot promise a delivery date at this moment.
