Today is the second day of the Liferay development course in Frankfurt. Looking through the window gives me hope that the weather will be a bit better than yesterday. Yesterday we spend most of the day setting up Liferay for development and building a basic portlet.

Today we will cover how to use advanced portlet features like JSR-286 eventing, how to set up a portlet using struts and how to create a service using the service builder. I am particularly looking forward to that last part because it allows you to add additional services to Liferay.

Anyway, enough material to blog about so please stay tuned (while I get some breakfast ).

This morning was devoted to setting up a Liferay development environment. Not too much new stuff for me but I got the change to figure out some small things which will probably be useful in the future.

After a pleasant lunch we are ready to write some code!

The weather in Frankfurt is much like the weather in Holland: rainy.

Today and the next 2 days I am going to increase my Liferay development skills in the city of Frankfurt. It is an official training by Liferay inc. I flew in Yesterday with my colleague Jeroen. I am writing this post from the class just like in the good old school days . There are about 20 other developers in this 3 day training.

I am really looking forward to learn some new tricks. I will keep you posted!
