Introduction
In this weblog i am going to present a Dynpage that display content assigned to a user in a nice htmlb tree display. This code is for portal version EP6 SP9 or higher.
Jar files required
com.sap.portal.usermanagementapi.jar,com.sap.portal.pcd.glserviceapi.jar
Step1
Create a Dynpage project using NWDS or Eclipse wizard. Add the following source code to your
dynpage
component.

Step 3
Save the following images and add it to your
dist->images
folder.
Step 4
Deploy your application in your portal. h5. BAM! you got yourself a nice utility iView that display all the content assigned to a user.
this is a nice tool for sure. Just implemented it and it works fine.

Thanx prakash!
Very nice weblog! I am wondering if this can be used as a kind of “inteligent site map”, where for each single user, it will always display the Roles, Worksets and Pages available…
Congrats!
-Vis-
Thanks for the great feedback. Hopefully i get some time to work on the sitemap.
Prakash
I modified your code slightly to use it in a Portal Service. Everythings works great except that I’m getting always null when I execute
objtitle = att.get(request.getLocale())
I exchanged request.getLocale() with the locale of the current portal user (IUser.getLocale()).
Any idea?
Thanks,
Frank
com.sap.portal.usermanagementapi.jar
com.sap.portal.pcd.glserviceapi.jar
it will be really useful

i got the jars …….but not the latest one
this jar does not has the (com.sap.portal.pcd.glserviceapi.jar) following class files
IPcdContext
IPcdAttribute
so please send the latest jar files
com.sap.portal.pcd.glserviceapi.jar
Thanks in Advance
Swamy.B
Could you please explain me the use of following tag:
If the same code is run with some “Standard User”, then it is throwing me an exception for the above line.
Also, What all are the privileges required for the Standard User for do the PCD look up.
Regards,
Neeraj
How do you check to see if a user has write permission to a folder when you build a pcd browser as you did?
Thanks

What would be the reason.. It displays only the first role . then it throws the null exception on the dynpage.
IS it possible to make it work even on this .
thanks
PK
Is it possible to make the iviews as live links I mean after clicking this iview I should be able to get the actual iview should open in a new window.
pk
I dont have to say anything abt your great work.
I have one requirement where I think I can use this code.
I need to have a program which runs everyday to see what a user roles are in backend and checks to see if it has corresponding roles in Portal. If not it changes the roles of the user to match that of backend roles. If user doesnt exist in portal then it should create the user and then assign the roles.
Can you please suggest me a solution in this case?
Thanks in advance

could you please send them to me to (lcalderonz@gmail.com)or maybe you know about a site where I can download directly.
Thanks!
Very Good Weblog, it will be very useful to me 🙂

I have one application with the same requrement. I was able to meet the requirements.
Now I have one problem in displaying the title of a selected role. In your code you have used role.getDescription() and role.getDisplayName() which nowhere realted with title of the role.
Coudl you please suggest me how can we get the title of a role?
Thank you,
Sandeep Kumar B
It is really nice tool. We can get evrything using your code. We have the same requirement, but we need to seperate those and display. My question is I want to diplay iViews in one dropdownlist, pages in one list and so on. Can please guide me how can I seperate those.

I need to use your application on a Web Dynpro Application… I saw that use IPortalComponentRequest. I didn´t get to use IPortalComponentRequest on Web Dynpro.
Can u help me?
Thanks,
Bruno
Did you find the method to implement the displaying of roles, worksets, iviews, etc as per the portal user using webdynpro ?
I have an urgent requirement on that. Please let me know if you have found the solution.
Thanks in advance.

Have you implemneted the application in webdynpro. I have an immediate requirement for this application in webdynpro. Can u please email me in brief how you approached to this on aparna.rachuri@gmail.com
would look forward for your help.
Thanks,
Aparna
Hope you are doing good
I have the same requirement ie I have to do the same thing in Web DynPro.
Can you please let me know that how you did that and if possible can you send me the code to my ID ie vivek571@gmail.com
Thanks & regards
Vivek Kumar Mishar
Did you find the solution in Web Dynpro. I do have the save requirement, if you have implmented can you please guide me.
Please mail me the approach/code/any documentation at ballanarasimhamurthy@gmail.com
