hello

i'm trying to solve i problem i have with jboss ipc in the example from the reference guide. i have everything configured according to the reference guide (*-object.xml, jboss-service.xml, sar-achrive). everything deployes fine without problems. when i try nothing happens. the parameters don't show up on the second portlet. even after that there are no errors in my log and according to that log my listener defined in the jboss-service.xml is registered.
my first problem i had with this example is now solved. it was because i didn't have the right structure of the sar-file (which caused a NoClassDefFound-Exception)

my-object.xml:

<page-name>test</page-name>
 <properties/>
 <window>
 <window-name>test1-window</window-name>
 <instance-ref>AInstance</instance-ref>
 <region>center</region>
 <height>0</height>
 </window>
 <window>
 <window-name>test2-window</window-name>
 <instance-ref>BInstance</instance-ref>
 <region>center</region>
 <height>0</height>
 <listener>test_listener</listener>
 </window>

jboss-service.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<server>
 <mbean
 code="org.jboss.portal.core.event.PortalEventListenerServiceImpl"
 name="portal:service=ListenerService,type=test_listener"
