16.3.7 Oracle Portal Actions and CMEF Events
This section describes some of the most common portal actions and shows how to include code in your subscriber to detect these actions. These actions may occur through the Oracle Portal user interface, the Oracle Portal PLSQL APIs, or WebDAV. For a more detailed list of portal actions and the events and message payloads that they generate, refer to Appendix G, Content Management Event Framework Events .16.3.7.1 Page and Page Group Actions
In Oracle Portal, a portal is a collection of one or more page groups. A page group is a hierarchical collection of pages for which common attributes and mechanisms can be established.16.3.7.1.1 Creating a Page Creating a page produces the following CMEF message
payload: The first message is for the page itself, and the second is for the portlet instance that displays the default navigation page on the page. If you want your subscriber to respond to the creation of a page, perform the following check: if message.object_class = PAGE and message.raw_event = wwsbr_event_q_access.EVENT_INSERT then . . . end if; SITE_ID1 OVERLOADED NUMBER For item types, the ID of the page group to which the item type belongs. For pages, the ID of the page group to which the page type belongs. For item and page types, the ID of the page group to which the base type belongs. GROUP_ID NUMBER When multiple messages are associated with a particular event, related messages have the same group ID. OBJECT PATH VARCHAR24000 A unique path to the portal object being referenced by this message on the queue this can be NULL. It is used only for pages, items, categories, perspectives, item types, and page types. OBJECT UID VARCHAR24000 A unique immutable identifier to the portal object being referenced by this message. It is used only for pages, items, categories, perspectives, item types, and page types. Action Event State Object Class ADD_PAGE INSERT PUBLISHED PAGE ADD_ITEM INSERT PUBLISHED ITEM Table 16–2 Cont.
