Configuration

Here we describe the standard configuration. Depending on the portal server, you might have more configuration to set. For more information, please refer to ZK Installation Guide.

WEB-INF/portlet.xml

To use it, you first have to add the following definition into WEB-INF/portlet.xml. Notice that expiration-cache must be set to zero to prevent portals from caching the result.

 <portlet>
     <description>ZK loader for ZUML pages</description>
     <portlet-name>zkPortletLoader</portlet-name>
     <display-name>ZK Portlet Loader</display-name>

     <portlet-class>org.zkoss.zk.ui.http.DHtmlLayoutPortlet</portlet-class>

     <expiration-cache>0</expiration-cache>

     <supports>
         <mime-type>text/html</mime-type>
         <portlet-mode>VIEW</portlet-mode>
     </supports>

     <supported-locale>en</supported-locale>

     <portlet-info>
         <title>ZK</title>
         <short-title>ZK</short-title>
         <keywords>ZK,ZUML</keywords>
     </portlet-info>
 </portlet>

WEB-INF/web.xml

ZK portlet loader actually delegates the loading of ZUML documents to ZK Loader (DHtmlLayoutServlet). Thus, you have to configure WEB-INF/web.xml as specified in ZK Installation Guide, even if you want to use only portlets.
