Re: [jsr-314-open] [jsf2next] might as well face it, Facelets is XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ui:composition xmlns:ui="jsf:facelets" xmlns:cc="jsf:cc"> <cc:interface> <cc:attribute name="name" required="true"/> </cc:interface> <cc:implementation> Hello, #{cc.attr.name} </cc:implementation> </ui:composition> The point being, no need for all the HTML wrapper garbage. I'd even like to get rid of the ui:composition there and perhaps have something like "cc:component" or "cc:tag" as the wrapper. We can also leverage the default namespace to cut out the unnecessary namespace prefixes: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <component xmlns="jsf:cc"> <interface> <attribute name="name" required="true"/> </interface> <implementation> Hello, #{cc.attr.name} </implementation> </component> Notice that I'm not really changing all that much in JSF to get to this point. It's really just a shift in thinking (and recommending). -Dan -- Dan Allen Senior Software Engineer, Red Hat | Author of Seam in Action Registered Linux User #231597 http://mojavelinux.com http://mojavelinux.com/seaminaction http://www.google.com/profiles/dan.j.allen
