javax.portlet
public interface PortletResponse
PortletResponse
defines the base interface to assist a
portlet in creating and sending a response to the client.
The portlet container uses two specialized versions of this interface
when invoking a portlet, ActionResponse
and
RenderResponse
. The portlet container creates these
objects and passes them as arguments to the portlet's processAction
and render
methods.

Some portal/portlet-container implementation may require those URLs to contain implementation specific data encoded in it. Because of that, portlets should use this method to create such URLs.
The encodeURL
method may include the session ID
and other portal/portlet-container specific information into the URL.
If encoding is not needed, it returns the URL unchanged.
Parameters: path
the URI path to the resource. This must be either
an absolute URL (e.g.
http://my.co/myportal/mywebap/myfolder/myresource.gif
)
or a full path URI (e.g. /myportal/mywebap/myfolder/myresource.gif
).
Returns: the encoded resource URL as string
Throws: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if path doesn't have a leading slash or is not an absolute URL
Properties can be used by portlets to provide vendor specific information to the portal.
