Hi!
Mario, Could you please open jira issues on the defects you found
during your work with
<s:pprPanelGroup>.
The problems I had previously were:
1) Sometimes ppr simply stopps working, a full page refresh will happen.
Don't know how to reproduce it. Probably you could simply ignore that issue.
2) You need a way how to send the component h:messages together with the
ppr response. In a4j you could wrap any component. These component are
then fetched with ANY ajax request.
This makes it VERY easy to have ajax submit by still being able to show
the messages, even if a custom messagesRenderer is used (like we have here).
3) Support setting a new ViewRoot from within an ajax request. a4j also
supports that. The ajax response will then be (I think aborted) and a
full page refresh will happen. But hey, it was really cool once I
discovered that this works at all.
More generally I have to say I find it way more harder to define all the
client-side id's where the ppr should trigger than to simply setup a
reRender attribute on any commandLink/commandButton.
We found it much more natural to work that way then to configure
triggerPatterns.
a4j also provides an easy way to have a status icon somewhere on the
page which will appear on ajax-req-start and disappear (or whatever,
just configure the facets) on ajax-req-stop.
The main question is, what is the target of our pprPanelGroup. If it is
to be as comfortable as the other ppr implementations I think it needs
much more work.
Ciao,
Mario
Thank you.

Hi!
s:xmlTemplate
Dont know much, not to say "nothing", about that.
s:pprPanelGroup (is this component ready? it could be good but
I don't know if there is any objection).
I do not think that pprPanelGroup is ready for a release, there
are some
things still missing and sometimes it stopps working.
Unfortunately, I have to say I am switching away from
pprPanelGroup to a4j with richfaces.
I just have no time to look into pprPanelGroup ...
Ciao,
Mario
