Tom, JEE vs. JSE : Sorry, keeboord error Tomahawk are JSF UI Components. The default datatable in JSF is not sortable, ,pagable, not even the one in myfaces etc.. So instead of completely developping our own it is imo not a problem to depend on them. The functionality is so basic that if someone wants to switch to a comparable jsf ui comonent set, it is possible. Regarding the tasklist backed bean, I agree and that is what is fairly easy to do. The only issues remains the sortability and paging as commented in the JIRA issue http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-436 View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3962124#...
