Create a Producer definition and consuming a portlet by a single XML script

We can use a single XML script to create a Producer definition and then consume portlets from that same Producer.

If you consume the portlet in an XML script that has already created the Producer in a previous step, we must specify the following items in the XML script:

1. A locate action on the Producer.

2. A locate action on the web-app tag with the u attribute.

3. The servlet subtag with the remotehandle and wsrp-producerref attributes.

4. A locate action on the portlet-app subtag with the u attribute.

5. The portlet subtag with the servletref attribute.

The following XML sample shows how we use the XML configuration interface to integrate a remote portlet:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<request type="update" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
   xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="PortalConfig_8.5.0.xsd">
   <portal action="locate">
      <wsrp-producer action="locate" object uniquename="wps.myProducer1">
      <web-app action="locate" u>
         <servlet action="update" object remotehandle="Remote_handle" 
             wsrp-producerref="Producer_OID"/>
         <portlet-app action="locate" u>
            <portlet action="update" active="true" defaultlocale="en" 
               servletref="Servlet_OID" name="Sample_Portlet">
               <localedata locale="en">
                  <title>Sample Portlet</title>
                  <description>Simple sample portlet as Web service</description>
               </localedata>
               <access-control externalized="false" owner="undefined" private="false"/>
            </portlet>
         </portlet-app>
      </web-app>
   </portal>
</request>
