Timothy, please email me what you have, and preferably with some brief notes on what you changed. We're all eager to see it.

We have been looking at struts bridge for a while now, but my concern is that it doesn't break compliance with the spec.

Timothy,
Great work. Can you also send me the patch with instructions? Thanks

We have the struts-bridge working with jboss-portal-2.0-beta1. Our implementation required adding jboss-portal specific extension to the bridge. The bridge seems to assume an implementation that is specific to the way Jetspeed-2 implements it. Since jboss-portal implements some of the things differently, making the struts-bridge work with jboss-portal requires non-trivial implementation. We will send our implementation to jboss-portal folks for their review.

thanks, send it to us (julien and roy) so we can look at it.

I looked at the bridge release in M2 version of JS2 and it seemed we only had to implement an interface that gives the http request in function of the portlet request.

package org.apache.portals.bridges.common;

public interface ServletContextProvider
{
 ServletContext getServletContext(GenericPortlet portlet);
 HttpServletRequest getHttpServletRequest(GenericPortlet portlet, PortletRequest request);
 HttpServletResponse getHttpServletResponse(GenericPortlet portlet, PortletResponse response);
}

I am interested in seeing this as well. Please forward when you have a chance.

I sent the implementation to both Julien and Roy. Hope you guys got it
