Yeah the Oracle Forum for JDeveloper stinks when it comes to ADF Faces. I can see what you mean. I posted a few questions on there and never got anything either. I just wish I would have found this list sooner too.

Maybe I used a wrong word "documented" in place of "supported". I posted this same question with this issue to their discussion list and nobody gave me any answer for a week. That's what I mean. Interestingly enough, even that answer was finally found for me but here at TRINIDAD. So for me, even that fact speaks for itself. At this discussion list I even find the answers for something beyond this project. For me that's a definitely a place to stay. Bye, bye ADF Faces...

I personally thought that ADF Faces was pretty well documented. It just got confusing sometimes based on the versioning. Some documentation dealt with the EA releases specifically. I too am using Trinidad now specifically for the built in Facelets support. With ADF Faces you had to boot strap another jar that was provided by Adam Winer to the facelets project. It just added to complexity of getting it to work. I am just getting anxious for Trinidad to graduate from Incubation. The link I provided is the "official" download page for ADF Faces on Oracle's site. I just joined the mailing list yesterday so I could not have answered it sooner. Sorry. Good luck with your projects. -Brian On 10/12/06, Causevic, Dzenan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Well I did not get it from there.
