Hi 2010/10/27 Ganesh <ganesh(a)j4fry.org <mailto:ganesh@j4fry.org>> LU> I agree with you, just note as it was mentioned before we still need to do something LU> to allow multiple action attributes for a single composite component, as reported here: LU> LU> https://javaserverfaces-spec-public.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=859 LU> LU> The idea of introduce cc:attribute "targetName" sounds good.

LU> LU> regards, LU> LU> Leonardo Uribe Wouldn't your patch for https://javaserverfaces-spec-public.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=755 include working with other action attribute names? E.g. <cc:interface> <cc:attribute name="testAction"/> <cc:attribute name="label"/> </cc:interface> <cc:implementation> <h:commandButton value="#{cc.attrs.label}" action="#{cc.attrs.testAction}"/> </cc:implementation> or even <cc:interface> <cc:attribute name="testAction1"/> <cc:attribute name="testAction2"/> <cc:attribute name="label"/> </cc:interface> <cc:implementation> <ez:button value="#{cc.attrs.label}" action="#{cc.attrs.testAction1}"/> <h:commandButton value="#{cc.attrs.label}" action="#{cc.attrs.testAction2}"/> </cc:implementation> is what developers expect to work. If it's necessary for the implementation they will accept a method-signature. I don't like te idea of introducing one more obscure target family attribute like targetName. Instead I'd prefer to try and make targets obsolete. I don't think it is posible to use the previous syntax, because it is necessary to declare in some way that the attribute will receive a MethodExpression, otherwise a ValueExpression will be used and an error will be thrown. To do that we have two options: 1. use method-signature param, but extend this param to allow multiple signature definitions. 2. use "targetName" attribute to indicate implicitly the method-signature. I think use "targetName" attribute is better. Suggestions are welcome. best regards, Leonardo Uribe Best regards, Ganesh
