Error description

  • In Rational Application Developer V7.0.0.4, after importing the
Portlet Project as WAR in a new fresh workspace, the Portlet Dep
loyment Descriptor(PDD) in the project explorer view is visible.
 However after enabling the 'Portal Development' capability, the
 PDD is not visible anymore.
To see PDD, you have to restart the IDE or close all perspective
s then reopen the web perspective.

Local fix

Problem summary


    

  • Creating a Portlet project, exporting it as a war file and
reimporting the same war, would result in Portlet Project
not showing the PDD node.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • Incorrect check resulted in Portlet facets not getting
installed. Once this is corrected, the Portlet facets get
installed and the PDD node shows up.

Fixed in Rational Application Developer V7.5
