Accessing spring app with SAP

[craig]

We are migrating our application to be available via the Portal engine in SAP, and was curious if others have crossed this bridge.

Now I need to access the ApplicationContext from the portal runtime too. I believe it must use the same instance of the ApplicationContext as the app deployed on the J2EE container, mainly because we have toplink doing the O-R, and want to share the same object cache.

So now I am looking for the best way to make the ApplicationContext available within the Portal code.

A little more background, because we are still in the process of migrating the existing code to spring, i have employed a singleton to represent the bean factory, until i retrofit the servlets to access it via the servlet context.

My thought was I would put the applicationcontext in the jndi tree, and get it from the portlet code...does that sound good? Any suggestions?

thanks

After some more thought, I think I see the flaws in my plan.

Instead I should create the SAP views within a web app which references the existing application. When i want to deploy on SAP i just deploy them together. When i deploy it in a non-SAP environment I just deploy the original .war file.

This better?

thanks

Craig,

I am currently developing a Spring application for development in SAP J2EE App server and Portal server. Do I need to developer iView for all the JSPs and controllers in my system?
