Description

When I use Spring Portlet support for developing portlets I get got this problem:

(handleAction)
request.getPortletSession().setAttribute("a", "a", PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE);
(handleRender in the same portlet)
String a = request.getPortletSession().getAttribute("a", PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE);
(variable 'a' is null)

I have attached a little test portal. You can run it by following this steps:
1. unzip this file
2. run 'mvn eclipse:eclipse' (or your other favorit IDE)
3. run/debug file 'src/main/java/org/apache/pluto/test/test1/TestPortal.java' (within Eclipse)
4. open you favorite browser and go to 'http://localhost:8080/test1/test-portal/index.jsp'
OK I know this is not simply... but you can debug portlets if you want

Problem:

• click on the first 'click me' link -> everything is ok
• now click on the second one 'click me' -> oops (problem should appeare here, but is ok)
• restart TestPortal
• click on the second 'click me' link and you got exception

I thought this is spring problem, so I reported this to http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/spring/browse/SPR-3905?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel, but it seams like to be container (pluto) problem not problem of spring portlet support.
