Well, yes ... but so would adding Shale to the RI. To understand how the pieces fit together, lets divide "MyFaces" into two things -- a JSF implementation, and a component library (Tomahawk). You can use them separately or together, like this: * RI Implementation * MyFaces Implemention * RI Implementation + Tomahawk * MyFaces Implementation + Tomahawk * RI Implementation + Shale * MyFaces Implementation + Shale * RI Implementation + Shale + Tomahawk * MyFaces Implementation + Shale + Tomahawk In other words, the MyFaces and RI implementations are interchangeable, and you can use add-on pieces with either of them. Does shale add jsf features Struts? > > If I add MyFaces to Struts, can existing struts web app has jsf features? No, Shale does not do that ... it is completely independent of Struts 1.xcode ... but there is an alternative library that does: http://struts.apache.org/faces/ Thanks Craig
