If you’d missed the announcement, a new standard edition version of Liferay is now available: version 5.2.2. Go to the Downloads area of Liferay to update your version.
In the coming days, I’ll be posting updated versions of all of this site’s portlets as well. Trackback to http://www.robisoft.com/downloads/ to check on the progress for this site.

The World Time Clock portlet is now in the downloads sections. It extends javax.portlet.GenericPortlet to display a digital clock using javascript within a Java Server Page.

This is a simple portlet that demonstrates that frameworks are not necessarily needed if all you require is a simple View presented in the portlet window.

Available now in the downloads area: Easy Statistics Portlet. Numerical analysis can be a important tool for any statistician. This free portlet uses Struts 1.2 to accept integer input and easily compute some basic statistics such as standard deviation, mean, median, etc. It was created for use with Liferay 5.1.2.

Credit goes to Jeff Sauro over at Usable Statistics for the idea for this portlet. Also, credit to JFree.org for the use of the JFreeChart statistical libraries used to compute most of the results.
Next, I’ll be working on the World Timezone portlet.
