[Jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Portal] - Re: JBoss Portal and Laszlo

[<ju...@jb...>]

Hello mkural,

the faces + laszlo integration seems powerfull.

we will migrate our portlets to JSF (except the forum which has a specific interface non based on widgets) so if the faces + JSF integration works I think it is a good idea to use it to provide a richer UI.

beside that for now, I don't see what JBoss Portal must implement specifically in order to enable laszlo portlets to run with it.

  | Yeah I noticed that later. Well, that is just that screenshot though, which was posted by some Liferay user on the forum. Since it is IFrame it's not a significant screenshot. But Liferay's lead developer Brian Chan has been building real Laszlo-based portlets for Liferay Portal for half a year. Please check here:

  | Also IBM built Faces for Laszlo which enables you to put JSF components that emit Laszlo GUI components. You can read more about Faces for Laszlo here:

  | Does JBoss Portal have any roadmap in terms of Laszlo?
