Re: [jsr-314-open] <h:dataTable> binding vs. ui:repeat
Hi Andy,
In JSFT I leveraged the ValueChange, Action, etc. events to fire off
this type of event / eventlistener model. I then never used the legacy
ones directly b/c the unified way of defining and handling all events
was much simpler. So I guess my opinion is to register listeners for
any type of event in a generic way; legacy (hard-coded) events can
delegate to the generic event system for their impl. I would prefer not
to see many more new tags for the purpose of defining new events... they
all basically do the same thing w/ a different event name.
But, I'll be happy regardless of what happens. :)
Thanks everyone that has been contributing to JSF while I have been
bogged down for the last several months w/ less fun stuff (except for my
vacation to Peru... that was fun). :) I'm trying to be more active now....
Thanks!
Ken

I do remember some discussion of providing component system events for
events that are currently handled via FacesEvents (valueChange,
action), but I guess we never reached a resolution on this. If we
were to add such system events, are you thinking that these should
replace the existing FacesEvents (ValueChangeEvent, ActionEvent)? Or
would the new system events simply complement the corresponding
FacesEvents?
