Description

If the default view for a portlet mode is not specified, you will get an infinite loop.

In GenericFacesPortlet, the doDispatchInternal() method will call super.doDispatch(request, response) if a default view is not specified in portlet.xml. GenericPortlet.doDispatch() calls back into GenericFacesPortlet, creating an infinite loop.

It should throw a PortletException instead.
