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.
