This tutorial guides you through the process of developing a simple JSR 168 portlet using IBM Rational® Application Developer 6.0. It includes detailed instructions on building portlet user interfaces (UI), creating data JavaBeans, binding the data, handling the interactions, using resource bundles, and exporting the portlet to the Integrated Solutions Console. The Integrated Solutions Console is a component inside the IBM Autonomic Computing Toolkit, which you can download at no charge.

In this tutorial

• Creating the Faces (JSR 168) portlet project
  
  
• Building Faces portlet UI
  
  
• Preparing the data
  
  
• Binding the data
  
  
• Handling the actions
  
  
• Testing the application
  
  
• Exporting and importing your portlet project
  
  
• Deploying the portlet to the Integrated Solutions Console
  
  
• Internationalizing the application
  
  
• Analyzing the data model
  

Prerequisites

You should have:

• A basic knowledge of Java programming for understanding the code
• A basic knowledge of Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) concepts for understanding the portlet architecture
