I don't know why, but if I didn't add the renderer element to my app's faces- config.xml I got an empty page. I didn't have to extend HtmlRenderer, I just had to add the element to my app's faces-config.xml. I remember reading somewhere about the faces-config.xml inheritance model and it said it looks in the jar first, then your app's, which can override what is in the jar. But apparently you can't just override a component without overriding the renderer too (unless it's bug).
My tree component works though. -- Rob @objectsource.org ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Sean Schofield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: MyFaces Discussion <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, 31 Mar 2005 11:33:39 -0500 Subject: Re: extending tree2 > > 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. > > Huh?
