Looking at it again, I don't need to extend TreeTag. I do need the values
returned by
TreeTag.getComponentType() and TreeTag.getRendererType(). Then I have to
specify the
component and renderer in my app's faces-config.xml:
<component>
<component-type>org.apache.myfaces.HtmlTree2</component-type>
<component-class>org.objectsource.ui.UITree</component-class>
</component>
.
.
.
<renderer>
<component-family>org.apache.myfaces.HtmlTree2</component-family>
<renderer-type>org.apache.myfaces.HtmlTree2</renderer-type>
<renderer-class>org.apache.myfaces.custom.tree2.HtmlTreeRenderer</renderer-class>
</renderer>
Although the renderer descriptor is verbatim from the myfaces faces-config.xml
when I
didn't have it in my app's faces-config.xml nothing was rendered.
