integrating IBM portlet as iView in SAP EP

[Former Member]

Hi,

I got a new requirement, and i have to show a part of IBM portlet as an iView in EP. I analyzed two options, the part of the portlet gets feeds using java API

1. A URL iview with URL parameters

2. Develop a new portal iView using the APIs provided.

Can some one give me an idea, or if some one has already implemented it, a description will be more helpful..

Points will be rewarded with out fail...

The URL iview is the fastest and simplest option. But, if them parameters are subject to change, the iview will throw an error.

If you use the Java API's provided to make a Java iView, you will be <b>directly building the application using business Logic</b>, so even if the parameters or URL of the portlet change, you application will still run. Time consuming method though..

I would recommend going the WSRP (Web Services for Remote Portlets) route, see:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/23fb36cad10d23e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm

This would enable you to consume non-SAP portlets into SAP portal

Hope this will meet your requirements

Hi,

For the same one how can you create the wsdl url for the IBM to use our content,

Or where can we get the WSDL url of the IBM portlet.

Because we will be asking the URL for wsdl in this integration.

Hi Devi,

Hi,

The WebSphere WSDL should be something like http://<host>:<port>/wps/wsdl/wsrp_service.wsdl

Hope this helps,

Avi.
