Hi wolf, nobody here is having a great time looking at how users have a terrible time figuring it all out themselves.
can you please file jira issues on your items ? Yes there is a minimal example out there: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/myfaces/current12/test-webapp/ We have to add it to the next release (please file a jira issue on that) There is also a more complex demo (using Trinidad, instead of Tomahawk) (and jetty): http://code.google.com/p/facesgoodies/ (do a svn check out, since the ZIPPY is using myfaces.1.2.0-SNAPSHOT) File a jira issue on having a tomahawk-demo as well (I know that Werner did some *investments* here already) Thanks, Matthias On 7/19/07, Wolf Benz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi List It's very cool MyFaces 1.2 finally got out of the door but... It's again a true pain setting MyFaces up correctly before it works... (more than it should). I remember it took me an entire week before I had MyFaces 1.x configured correctly with the Extension Filter etc. What a waste of time :-( In the mean time, other sites have helped out and put a proper Tutorial or a complete "blank app" online but this major new release demands renewed examples and ... is a chance for e renewed approach. Yet, with MyFaces 1.2.0 out, I see the old the same mistakes are made again: - no examples - no info on the web.xml (like: should it specify servlet container v 2.5 now?) - no info on the faces-config.xml (like: should it specify http:// java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd or v.1.2?) - no info on what jars are exactly required - no compatibility matrix (like: works with Tomcat6? Can you use Tomahawk (e.g. of version 1.6) together with MyFaces1.2? ... I get the impression the jars are just dumped online and the makers have a great time looking at how users have a terrible time figuring it all out themselves... As I cannot image no one on this list has such example, could someone take the effort of posting the jar online to help all the rest of us out? My setup is: Tomcat6, MyFaces 1.2, Tomahawk(if possible in combination with MF1.2.0 - also this info is not online) I guess this setup would currently the most common one. I spent the last 2 days (starting from my old MF 1.1.5/Toma1.1.5 app on Tomcat 5) trying to migrate it to that setup but to no avail. Many thanks, Wolf
