My portlet-instances.xml is as follow:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<instances>
 <instance>
 <instance-name>Servicos</instance-name>
 <component-name>PagePortlet</component-name>
 <preferences>
 <preference>
 <name>teste</name>
 <value>teste</value>
 </preference>
 </preferences>
 <security>
 <rules>
 <rule role="Admins" patterns=".*:.*" level="admin"/>
 <rule role="Users" patterns=".*:.*" level="add"/>
 <rule role="" patterns=".*:.*" level="read"/>
 </rules>
 </security>
 </instance>
</instances>

I've tryed to access the preference of the instance with:

request.getPreferences().getValue("teste","abc");

in the render method of the portlet but the returned value was "abc", the default value passed as the second param.

I've changed the portlet.xml to:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<portlet-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/portlet/portlet-app_1_0.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/portlet/portlet-app_1_0.xsd /opt/SUNWps/dtd/portlet.xsd" version="1.0">
 <portlet>
 <portlet-name>PagePortlet</portlet-name>
 <portlet-class>br.gov.trf2.jfes.intranet.portlets.PagePortlet</portlet-class>
 <supported-locale>en</supported-locale>
 <resource-bundle>Resource</resource-bundle>
 <supports>
 <mime-type>text/html</mime-type>
 <portlet-mode>VIEW</portlet-mode>
 <portlet-mode>HELP</portlet-mode>
 </supports>
 <portlet-info>
 <title>Page include portlet</title>
 </portlet-info>
 <portlet-preferences>
 <preference>
 <name>teste</name>
 <value>portlet</value>
 </preference>
 </portlet-preferences>
 </portlet>
</portlet-app>

And the value returned was "portlet" and not anymore the default value.

But I want it to return the instance value "teste" just as configured in portlet-instances.xml i've posted in the first message.

not yet available on http, only available through CVS access.

I have requested a daily archive for the portal, but I think it is not done yet : http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBQA-68

you can vote for it :-)
