Q&A

Q: Hi Phuong, how would your message look like if you would have to tell it via Twitter what you are currently doing?
A: Twitter??? Never heard about. Is it a new facebook application? :D

Q: What was the greates piece of code you have ever written so far?
A:

String documentId = request.getAttribute("documentid");

• This line of code will fail to get what we expect to get in a WSRP scenario if the consumer doesn't federate the data to the producer.
• In addition, for some specific configuration of an application server, it would be executed only once, or several times or not executed at all.
• With IPC (Interportlet Communication), it could have the effect that the second portlet get the old value of the last request (one step back effect).
• Many lessons learned from a single line of code. Isn't it great?
