Tomahawk could add standards based portlet support for 1.2.

Hi Simon,

the three of us (Leonardo, you, me) discussed this in our
component-generation discussion.

@use of 1.2 constructs: yes, you are right, it should not use any 1.2
constructs (at a maximum - with reflection, so that we stay
independent). Facelets does something similar. We need a 1.2 version
however for the tags - they are just too different. But thankfully,
those will be generated. There is one thing which I want to have:
invokeOnComponent can be called, and it should be called for the
AJAX-callback.

@use of the 1.2 version: wouldn't you want to indicate to the
community that this component library is now 1.2 compliant? For JSP
2.1 containers, you will indeed need the new tag-files, if you are not
using Facelets (AFAIK)!

regards,

Martin

Hi *,

if Leonardo does as discussed, we can have both the 1.1 version and
1.2 from the same branch. (I don't see why this shouldn't be
possible).

Sorry, I must have missed this "as discussed" discussion.

Do you mean that there will be:
* no use of new for-loops or generics in any code?
* no use of ELContext except in a couple of generic templates that are
separated out by jsf version?

If the code and templates are not going to have any Java1.5 or
JSF1.2-specific code in them, then what exactly will be the difference
between the tomahawk-for-jsf1.1 and tomahawk-for-jsf1.2 releases?

If they do have java1.5 or jsf1.2-specific code in them, then we have
the same problem: two code lines to maintain, two files to patch etc.
ok, a couple of template files with different content are ok, but more
than that is going to be a problem.

And again, what is the benefit of a jsf1.2-specific tomahawk? Can you
show any Tomahawk code that will run faster or work better because we
use JSF1.2 features?

Regards,
Simon
