The portal uses this special method after a search using a special partial filter. This sets the objects state to AL_PARTIALSET so that jOMA knows that if someone else asks for it, to refetch the data. It then gets the groupedProperties, customizers without allowing a trip to the server, getting only what's already in the object store, and requests the Properties forcing a trip to the server, then returns them in the PortalProperties object.

Returns:

A PortalProperties object with the cached values in the GroupedProperties, Customizers, and Properties associations.

Throws:

ServiceException - If a repository error occurs.

java.rmi.RemoteException - In the event of remote object failure.
