public static Element getPLFNode(Element compViewNode,
                                 IPerson person,
                                 boolean create,

This method returns the PLF version of the passed in compViewNode. If create is false and a node with the same id is not found in the PLF then null is returned. If the create is true then an attempt is made to create the node along with any necessary ancestor nodes needed to represent the path along the tree.

Throws:

PortalException
