The navigation tag library is designed to enable you to build navigation iViews based on JSP pages, which are deployed to the portal as portal components in a PAR file that contains the JSP page and a portalapp.xml file.
For more information on writing JSP pages for the portal, see Writing JSP Pages.
To use navigation tags in a JSP page, do the following:
At the top of the JSP page, add a reference to the tag library:
Syntax
<%@ taglib uri="NavigationTagLibrary" prefix="nav"%>
In the portalapp.xml file:
Add a sharing reference in the <application-config> element:
Syntax
<property name="SharingReference" value="com.sap.portal.navigation.navigationtaglibrary"/>
Add a reference to the tag library by adding the following property to the <componentprofile> element for the JSP component:
Syntax
<property name="NavigationTagLibrary" value="/SERVICE/com.sap.portal.navigation.navigationtaglibrary/ taglib/TagLibrary.tld"/>
