login link to liferay with openid authentication

Question

I have a big issue with a scenario I am implementing, any help/pointers would be highly appreciated.

The scenario is as follows:

1. User login to system 1 which is an OpenId provider for liferay portal
2. User is being presented with a link which contains OpenId identity and an id
3. User press the link and a new browser tab is being opened and the user is being logged into liferay portal if not authenticated redirect to system1 login page
4. authenticate process must be done through OpenId and fetch some data from the OpenId identity provider

I found that I should use a hook that implements AutoLogin for comming for liferay and there is no problem.

The problem is authentication with OpenId and fetching data from OpenId

Can anyone help me about OpenId and how it can be integrated with Liferay

I found the solution in Session Sharing between Portlet and Servlet it works on liferay 6.1.1 First I enable the Private portlet session by Adding the following tag in the liferay-portlet.xml <private-session-attributes>true</private-session-attributes>

To share the session between portal and portlet. Define the shared session attribute in portal-ext.properties file by configuring the following property in the property file session.shared.attributes= LIFERAY_SHARED_ , APP_SHARED_

and then in servlet class of hook module

HttpSession session = request.getSession(false); session.setAttribute("APP_SHARED_test",testValue);

and then in your controller you can get value of APP_SHARED_test

String verCode= (String)actionRequest.getPortletSession().getAttribute("APP_SHARED_ver_code",PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE);
