AbstractIntegrationLayer: How to render output?

[Former Member]

Hi All,

we implemented our own AbstractIntegrationLayer to process and manipulate certain iView-properties and hand them over to the next layer.

How can we render output in this scenario, e.g. to display an error Message if something goes wrong in our layer? There is a method called:

public void render(IPortalComponentResponse arg0)

that can be overwritten, but it seems that it is not being called. The APIs are very vague and just state that this method is "used to render the output of this layer".

Any input on this would be very much appreciated.

Thanks a lot,

Jens

Solved. (Well, kind of...)

I fetched the HTTPServletResponse and overwrote it with my own output. I hoped it would be possible to return a DynPage, but rendering own HTML-output will do for an error Message.

Bye,

Jens
