Description Pavel Buzek 2007-01-29 19:06:22 UTC 
The portalpack module has server plugins for several portal servers. The portal
servers can be selected as target servers on any web module. It would be
desirable to make it possible to identify a plugin as a portlet plugin and
distinguish it from a "standard" j2ee server. Then the IDE should allow the user
to select portal server only if the project is a portlet project and vice versa
- for a portlet project the user should not be able to select a standard j2ee
server. 

Note: This is similar to how the IDE knows that an ejb module cannot be deployed
to tomcat.

Perhaps we could use isToolSupported() or getSupportedModuleTypes() from
J2eePlatform for this?

Yeah, using the tool support api seems to be a viable option. I will look at
portals a bit more, however, before making any decision.

In order to make the Visual Web portlet support available from the update center when NetBeans 6.0 FCS is released,
should we implement this feature as soon as possible? Thanks!
