This is the final screencast in my video series on using the Liferay Plugin SDK. I hope its been helpful for those of you new to plugin portlets. This Part 5 video shows how simple it is to build and deploy the portlet once its ready for testing. ANT is being used for the build tool — sorry, no maven support yet.

Part 4 in our video screencast demonstrates customizing the Sample JSP Portlet project established previously. The tutorial also includes information on how to modify Liferay specific configuration files as well as the standard Portlet deployment descriptor. Again, instead of relying on callouts, its my voice you’ll hear during this screencast. (Apologies if its not the siren’s call you’d imagined).

This week we continue with our look at using the Liferay Plugin SDK to develop portlets. Now, I’ll take a look at how to integrate what the Plugin SDK offers with Eclipse, perhaps the most popular development environment for Java. Instead of using callouts, this time I decided to use audio (gasp!) and gave my best effort for a clear, discernible audio presentation. Apologies if in some places it comes across a little rough.
