A system and method can support a federated portal using a producer web application on a web server and a plurality of consumer web applications. The producer web application is a container web application that hosts a plurality of portlet applications that are deployed and maintained separately. Each consumer web application is adapted to collect and present available portlet applications hosted on the producer web application and offer them as a unified portal to end users. Upon receiving a request from a consumer web application, said producer web application can map the consumer web application to one particular role in a role set which includes a plurality of roles, check for portlet applications that are available based on the particular role, and response to the consumer web application with a message that describes the available portlet applications hosted in the producer web application.

System and method for supporting consumer entitlements in federate portal

The present invention relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media for generating custom administrative tools. An administrative framework is provided that abstracts the implementation of certain administrative functions. A management Application Programming Interface (API) receives calls submitted in a preconfigured format from interface components generated by a developer or third party. The management API processes the calls and performs the functions associated with the calls. Multiple implementations are provided, through which an interface component can access the management API.

System and method for utilizing a common framework for portal administration tools

A portal can be generated using a portal designer allowing dragging and dropping of components into a display. The dragging and dropping of components can initiate the update of a display, such as a design view and/or a hierarchal display and the update of a portal file. The portal file can be used to generate the portal. The portal designer can include a property editor window for editing a selected component.

Systems and methods for improved portal development

A system to support consumer entitlement that allows Producer web applications to decide which portlets to be offered to Consumer web applications can comprise: a role set which includes a plurality of roles; a Consumer web application adapted to interact with end users; and a Producer web application with a set of portlets operable to be combined in a unified portal for end users. The Producer web application operates to: define a property set that allows end users to input values for the property set; map the Consumer web application to one particular role in the role set; and check for portlets that are available among the set of portlets based on the particular role.

System and method for consumer entitlements in portal services

A system and method for configuring a portal, comprising providing a first user interface operable to define and/or manage the portal; providing a second user interface operable to define and/or manage personalization of the portal; and wherein the portal can include at least one of the following portal resources: a desktop, a book, a page, a portlet, a shell, a look and feel, and a layout.

Systems and methods for personalizing a portal

A preview tool for a portal can include a portal display produced from style information for the portal and a palette. The palette indicates style information related to curser positions. The style information can be a Cascading Style Sheet class.
