[Building Sakai] Portal url's from inside "direct" servlet

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Chris,

This is reported as https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/KNL-758 where getPortalUrl gets its value from ThreadLocal preferentially. This is set by the RequestFilter where it sets the current 'portal' path as whatever context you are in, which is incorrect outside of the actual portal. I fixed this so it always gets the value from portalPath in sakai.properties. Simple change to the kernel if you want to pull it back.

cheers,
Steve

I suppose that it's kind of right, but is there a way to get the normal portal path without building it by hand?  It's obviously trivial to build it by hand, but I hate building things by hand when there are methods to get at them.
