Receiving an event in a HATS JSR 286 portlet

  1. Use portlet settings to define event names, the corresponding global variables to contain the events' objects, and the object types, that can be received by this portlet. Access portlet settings from the Project settings editor by clicking the Other tab then Portlet. For more information about how to do this, see Portlet settings.
  2. Once WebSphere® Portal has received an event's object from a source portlet, the target portlet is notified. The HATS JSR 286 portlet runtime service retrieves the event's object from WebSphere® Portal and stores it in the specified global variable.
