Description

Calling:
javax.portlet.ActionResponse.setRenderParameter(String, String) or
javax.portlet.ActionResponse.setRenderParameter(String, String [])

during a call to:
javax.portlet.Portlet.processAction(ActionRequest, ActionResponse)

causes the specified render parameters to be returned by:
javax.portlet.ActionRequest.getParameter(String),
javax.portlet.ActionRequest.getParameterMap(),
javax.portlet.ActionRequest.getParameterNames() and
javax.portlet.ActionRequest.getParameterValues(String)

during the next call to:
javax.portlet.Portlet.processAction(ActionRequest, ActionResponse)

THIS IS INCORRECT.

The specified render parameters should only be available when calling:
javax.portlet.RenderRequest.getParameter(String),
javax.portlet.RenderRequest.getParameterMap(),
javax.portlet.RenderRequest.getParameterNames() and
javax.portlet.RenderRequest.getParameterValues(String)

during a subsequent call to:
javax.portlet.Portlet.render(RenderRequest, RenderResponse)

and should disappear just before the next call to:
javax.portlet.Portlet.processAction(ActionRequest, ActionResponse)

so that they are not available to subsequent calls to:
javax.portlet.Portlet.render(RenderRequest, RenderResponse)

unless explicitly set again.
