Re: [jbosstools-dev] JSF 1.1.0.1 Reference Impl vs JSF 1.2

4.2.0 have JSF 1.2 under the hood by default. It is not expected to be compatible with any JSF 1.1 templates. We need some way to prevent deploying incompatible projects. I'd love to throw JSF 1.1 away completely, but I suspect that users of 4.0.5 will not appreciate such radical solution.

Any ideas?

I've been running through a demo I'm going to give tonight at a local JBoss User Group meeting, and I noticed some strange behavior with our JBoss 4.2.0.GA and using the "JSF 1.1.0.1 Reference Impl" configuration from the new JSF project wizard. Basically, whenever the jsf project is deployed to my clean copy of JBoss 4.2.0 , lots of exceptions show up (though the application itself seems to work fine). When I start changing things from their default configuration (I'm using the kickstart as a quick startup for the demo), JBoss consistently throws exceptions until I hard undeploy/deploy the app from the App Server. On the other hand, if I select a "JSF 1.2" configuration in the wizard, the project deploys/redeploys with no errors, and seems to work without a hitch with any changes I make. I guess what I'm getting at is -- if we're going to use JSF 1.1.0.1 Reference Implementation as the "default" selection in the new JSF project wizard, shouldn't we be testing it's "noiseyness factor"?. Would it be a problem to have JSF 1.2 selected as default (or maybe another configuration that JBoss 4.2.0.GA likes?)
