Hi,

Currently im working for IBM to JSR 168 migration,

Hi,

The replacement for <portletAPI:createReturnURI/> of IBM API in JSR 168 API is <portlet:renderURL/> if url is created for Render Phase and <portlet:actionURL/> if url is created for Action Phase.

In your case

<portlet:actionURL/> can be used.

My doubt is portlet:createReturnURI will take us to caller portlet
example like back button in edit to go to view mode.,


I fi use the portletAPI:actionURI for the action phase will it give the same behaviour or i need to specify the portletMode="view" something like that .,

please help me.,

Thanks In Advance

You can use '<portlet:renderURL portletMode="view"/>' while creating Back url in Edit mode to go to View mode.

Specifying portletMode="view" or "edit" while creating an action url depends whether its required to bring the portlet into View mode or Edit mode after the action phase.
e.g. The action url <portlet:actionURL portletMode=�edit�> will bring the portlet to Edit mode after the action phase, and the url <portlet:actionURL portletMode=�view�> will bring the portlet to View mode after the action phase.

You can always refer the Portlet Tag Library in the JSR-168 Portlet Specification for more detail on actionURL and renderURL, like when to use, how to use, how to pass parameters etc.
