This section provides detailed information that allows you to gain experience creating Struts XDIME portlets by working with a set of sample Struts XDIME portlet templates. A simple MailReader Struts Portlet application shows you how a Struts XDIME portlet is written. You can then begin writing your own Struts XDIME portlets using the IBM® (legacy) or JSR168 (recommended) blank template portlets. By reviewing the MailReader Struts Portlet application and working with the blank template Struts XDIME portlet applications, developers should be able to quickly convert their Struts or XDIME portlets into Struts XDIME portlets and gain experience using the Struts XDIME tag library.
