Subject: Public review comment: allowing the portlet to receive new events
The current WSRP draft has an asymmetry for events that are not declared in the portlet description: It can publish new events at runtime by just returning the new event, but it cannot register itself for receiving new events at runtime. Use case: A generic Atom feed portlet that wants to publish specific events based on the feed. E.g. if it points to a feed that provides new published books it would like to publish an event with author name and book title for the current selected book entry. Proposal: In PortletContext add [O] EventDescription handledEvents[] [O] QName unhandledEvents[] Handled events will be treated as events that the portlet accepts to handle form this point on. Unhandled (better name suggestions?) events are events that the portlet no longer handles. If unhandled events are sent to the portlet they will be ignored. Stefan
