Class CacheablePortlet

java.lang.Object
  javax.servlet.GenericServlet
      javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
          com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.cache.CacheablePortlet

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.ibm.websphere.servlet.cache.CacheableServlet, java.io.Serializable, javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig

Direct Known Subclasses:

org.apache.jetspeed.portlet.Portlet

Deprecated. since 6.0. Support of the IBM portlet API may be removed in a future release of WebSphere Portal. Use of the Java Portlet API (javax.portlet) is recommended instead.

public abstract class CacheablePortlet
extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
implements com.ibm.websphere.servlet.cache.CacheableServlet

The abstract CacheablePortlet is used by the portlet container to provide the CacheableServlet interface for portlets.

This class is part of the public portlet API because the public class Portlet is derived from it, and so, implcitly, all portlets written for the IBM portlet API. This class should never be referenced explicitly. There is no need to do so as this class only implements the caching support.

Since:

5.1

Method Summary

abstract java.lang.String	getId(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request) Deprecated. This method is used by the WebSphere Dynacache to generate a cache ID.
abstract long	getLastModified(org.apache.jetspeed.portlet.PortletRequest request) Deprecated. Returns the time the response of the CacheablePortlet object was last modified, in milliseconds since midnight January 1, 1970 GMT.
int	getSharingPolicy(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request) Deprecated. This returns the sharing policy used for this cache entry.
protected void	service(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response) Deprecated. This method is used internally to invoke the portlet as a servlet.

Constructor Detail

CacheablePortlet

public CacheablePortlet()

Deprecated.

Default constructor. This constructor must not be called by application code.

Method Detail

getId

public abstract java.lang.String getId(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)

Deprecated.

This method is used by the WebSphere Dynacache to generate a cache ID. It must not be overridden by portlets.

Specified by:

getId in interface com.ibm.websphere.servlet.cache.CacheableServlet

Parameters:

request - The HTTP request object.

Returns:

The cache id. A null indicates that the portlet should not be cached.

getSharingPolicy

public int getSharingPolicy(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)

Deprecated.

This returns the sharing policy used for this cache entry. It must not be overridden by portlets.
Portlets always use SHARED_PULL (shared between multiple VMs and requested via pull).

Specified by:

getSharingPolicy in interface com.ibm.websphere.servlet.cache.CacheableServlet

Parameters:

request - The HTTP request object.

Returns:

The sharing policy

getLastModified

public abstract long getLastModified(org.apache.jetspeed.portlet.PortletRequest request)

Deprecated.

Returns the time the response of the CacheablePortlet object was last modified, in milliseconds since midnight January 1, 1970 GMT. If the time is unknown, this method returns a negative number (the default).
This method is implemented in Portlet and can be overridden by portlets.
Portlets that can quickly determine their last modification time should override this method. This makes browser and proxy caches work more effectively, reducing the load on server and network resources.

Parameters:

request - the PortletRequest object that is sent to the portlet

Returns:

a long integer specifying the time the response of the Cacheable object was last modified, in milliseconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 GMT, or -1 if the time is not known

service

protected void service(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                       javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)
                throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                       java.io.IOException

Deprecated.

This method is used internally to invoke the portlet as a servlet. It must not be overridden by portlets.

Overrides:

service in class javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException

java.io.IOException
