The toolkit provides components that aid in the development of an HTML
user interface in the following two areas:
- Application runtime architecture (assisting in HTML page composition using
an HTML editor)
- Generation of the required user interface components (assisting in massive
generation of pages that follow the same patterns)
For the runtime architecture, JSP tags are provided to render the HTML
page contents based on runtime variables. The PortletJspContextServices
bean that is internally used by the implementation tags provides the following
functionality:
- Provides access to the current operation's context information
- Controls the system information, such as paths to the resources and session
information, that is needed to respond to a client request
You can use Toolkit-provided JSP tags to generate
the JSP contents of pages.
