How to customize queries and Finders on an existing standard portlet?

[Svevo Villa, modifié il y a 10 années.]

Hi all,

I would like to modify/customize some queries and Finders on an existing standard portlet, like MessageBoard.
I thought that I could do this by creating a new "find" method on MBThreadFinderImpl class..
But I see that I cannot do that.

Could you suggest me a minimally invasive solution?

Thank you very much!!

What I did in one project is to implement my own FinderImpl with custom-sql using service builder in a hook or a portlet. The service builder will generate a FinderUtil class for me to use. Then I used the service wrapper in a hook to override the crossponding Liferay service. In the service wrapper it calls my FinderUtil.
