Re: [jsr-314-open] f:viewParam property javadoc inconsistent
Just to note it (maybe you already noted it, maybe not), the javadoc for
jsp and pld is inconsistent for this component.
It appear two properties: maxlength and for, but no property getter and
setter founded on javax.faces.component.UIViewParameter.
In theory, a component that works on jsp and facelets should have the same
properties. The only justification for have one property in facelet and not
in jsp is some hack on its related TagHandler (really I have never seen this
case), but this does not seem to be the case.
The maxlength property should not be on the viewParam tag and therefore
should be removed from the following two files.
/jsf-ri/conf/share/jsf_core.tld
/jsf-ri/conf/share/facelets_jsf_core.tld
The preferred approach is to use a validator.
The for attribute on viewParam when used as a Facelets tag is correct. It's
there to support relocation of a tag in a composite component. So you won't
find a matching attribute in UIViewParameter. However, I still have to
wonder if this is even a relevant use case.
