Saving Data in the PortletSession: Managing Portal State JEE

This tutorial takes the NumberGuesserPortlet one step further by adding PortletSession functionality so that the number of guesses the user has performed to try and guess that magic number is counted. This is a very simple piece of extra functionality, but it is very effective.

The portlet tutorial is created with IRAD, but the deployed war file is fully JSR168 compliant, so it can be deployed to any portal server, be it LifeRay, Pluto, JetSpeed, WebSphere Portal Server (WPS), Oracle, BEA Weblogic, OpenPortal or any other 168 compliant portal server on the market.

Man, have I ever been busy. People seem to love free, online, mock exam simulators. I put together a bunch of free online exams to promote my Sun Certified Java Associate (SCJA) books, and people have been just bugging the life out of me to create some similar online tests for the IBM Portlet Development certification exams 399 and 829. Well, I've managed to do it, and they're online now.

There are five different exams, with fifteen questions each. That's 75, free, online exam questions!!! Seriously, when you get all rich and successful, please don't forget about me.

I've actually sorta cheated on the exam link names. I've listed them on the links tab as being on five different subjects. That's a bit of bait and switch, because each of the mock exams is a mish-mash of different test 399 topics, including testing, debugging, JSR168 API concepts, C2A (Click-2-Action), WebSphere Portlet Services, Struts and JSF Portlet development, and the like. The fact is, if you can pass these tests, and know why certain answers are wrong, and why certain answers are correct, you'll do well on the actual exam. If you can't score high on these exams, you're probably not ready for the exam yet.
