sharing data in the portal

Posted on May 17, 2004 at 08:19 AM 8 Views

Hi,

I want to share data between several iView (not all are in the same page). I think of using the HttpSession but the putValue and the getValue methods are deprecated.

please advise,

Thanks, Nir Marcu.

    use the getComponentSession() method from the IPortalComponentRequest object.

    you should avoid working with HttpSession (or HttpRequest) directly. There are objects specifically created for the portal that act the same way.

    And in the IPortalComponentSession object, you will find the putValue() method !

      Yes, or use the HTTPSession (which you can get from the IPortalComponentSession). The HTTPSession has the same namespace for all portal components (therefore make sure you use distinct names, f.ex. com.company.portal.component.key).

      Xavier: Do you now the persistence level of the client databag ? Can it be cleared by the SAP J2EE engine if it needs the memory ?

    Remember that the different session object store the values once for every user.

    If the value is the same for all users you should consider creating a service which stores the information.
