Stand by for the answer to this - that's part of what I'll be doing
in the portals.
And keep in mind that asking for the URL to a tool is asking for either:
- a link to the PORTAL that chooses the SITE and SITE PAGE and
perhaps gives the TOOL some URL path and parameters to set its
navigation state
or
- a link DIRECTLY to the too, so that the TOOL with no portal
decorations shows up in the response.
The second is currently support. The first is partially supported,
although not with any calls. The pattern is:
portalUrl()/site/<site id>
More soon.

Ahhh... I get it. That makes sense.
How about getting the URL to a site or a tool?
The goal here is to get the URL to a site or a tool within a site.
All the examples I have been able to find seem to generate a URL
which has things hardcoded into it (like "/portal/" or "/tool/").
What is the right way to generate the URL to a site or a tool
within a site (without hardcoding text)? (or is there one?)

URLs?
That is the right way. And the system is doing just what you asked
it to do. If you want /mercury to be your portal URL base, change
your sakai.properties. The default is:
portalPath=/portal
The actually code for getPortalUrl is:
return getServerUrl() + (String) m_properties.get("portalPath");
Trust the configuration service!

to return ServerConfigurationService.getServerUrl() + "/portal" which
does not work correctly in the mercury portal.
I suspect I am doing something wrong but that's nothing new.
