Hi,

Does anybody know how to set the user-attributes defined in a JSR168
Portlet? For example my Portlet.xml contains :

<portlet>
...
</portlet>
<user-attribute>
<description xml:lang="EN">Some description</description>
<name>user.loginid</name>
</user-attribute>

My Portlet (a JDE Portlet) tries to access this attribute with :

Map map = (Map)renderrequest.getAttribute("javax.portlet.userinfo");

and then :

String s2 = (String)map.get("user.loginid");

How do these variables get set? It doesn't seem to be from the Portlet.xml

Help!

Damian.
