For option 4:

A breakpoint can only be set on Java code, so it's got to be an expression, scriptlet or declaration. There's no stepping through HTML in IRAD, although it was a kewl feature in VisualAge for Java.

Thanks Cameron,
But when I tried to put a debug break point on normal HTML tag with some custom tag inside I could set it. But not on <TD>, <BR> tags. Since I dont ve portal server I could execute and test it.

But I ll still check it again.

cheers

Shailesh,

Your answer to 1 and 3 are incorrect.

1.) The correct answer is d.

Look in the RAD help for debugging local test environment.
"Restrictions: To debug the following kinds of portlet applications,
remote debugging is the only option:
Personalized portlet applications."

While it is not easy you can debug Cooperative portlets. It requires that you enable admin portlets before starting the UTE.

3.) The correct for this question is also d.
Search the RAD help for the following topic.
"Resetting portlets on remote servers"

Awesome stuff Ryan.

Only 56 posts in 4 years, but when you speak up, it's golden.
