WebSphere Portal 6.1 | portlet tags are ignored

[linus55]

I try to use JBoss Portal Bridge in IBM WPS 6.1.0.5 on IBM WAS 7.0.0.13). Most stuff is working fine. But when it comes to portal / portlet stuff, I am struggling. Biggest problem: portlet tags. I want to use resource feature introduced in Portlet 2.0. Therefore, I need to generate a resource URL and parameterize it somehow. What I tired is:

<h:form id="viewFormId"

    xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

    xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"

    xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"

    xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"

    xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.ajax4jsf.org/rich"

    xmlns:a4j="http://richfaces.org/a4j"

    xmlns:portlet="http://java.sun.com/portlet_2_0">

<portlet:defineObjects />

...

<portlet:resourceURL>

     <portlet:param name="paramName" value="documentName" />

</portlet:resourceURL>

...

</h:form>

However, all portlet tags are ignored and are contained in rendered HTML (tested with Portlet Bridge versions 1.0.0.CR3 and 2.1). How can I get them working? Did anybody succeed in a similar environment? Or is there some alternative for portlet tags... Thanks a lot!

Found no solution how to get the portlet tags to work.

However, a workaround is to use EL. Therefore, I wrote some self-made mangaged bean with getters for stuff like windowState, mode, resourceURL,...
