[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Moved: (RF-8436) seam-gen should not use resources:// for things that are in web/view content

seam-gen should not use resources:// for things that are in web/view content ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-8436 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-8436 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: CDK, core Environment: winxp x86, jdk6, jboss5 Reporter: Jacques Lemire Assignee: Dan Allen Priority: Blocker Fix For: 3.3.3.GA seam-gen templates are using resource:// for things that are not on the classpath (currently build.xml hacks around this by duplicating the .xcss files in the war) Original description: In projects generated through "File" -> "New" -> "Seam web project", the facelets template "layout/template.xhtml" contains the following component in the "head" section: layout/template.xhtml: <a:loadStyle src="resource:///stylesheet/theme.xcss"/> This component, from a4j should transform the "richfaces templatable css" (xcss) file into a real CSS file and render as a <link> tag containing an a4j resource url. In projects created from the command-line seam-gen script, the output is as expected: <link class='user' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='/testxcss/a4j/s/3_2_2.SR1stylesheet/theme.xcss/DATB/eAFrvajdHLp8hjQAEgwDtA__' /> However, using jboss tools, I get: <link class='user' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='/SeamThemeTest/stylesheet/theme.xcss' /> This version does not work, however, as the xcss file is returned to the browser as is. By looking at the differences between the seam-gen project and the jbosstools project, i noticed the following section of the build.xml ant file generated by seam-gen: <copy todir="${war.dir}/WEB-INF/classes"> <fileset dir="${basedir}/resources"> <include name="**/*.xcss"/> </fileset> <!-- move XCSS into classpath for now loading from web context only works in JBoss AS 4 --> <fileset dir="${basedir}/view"> <include name="**/*.xcss"/> </fileset> </copy> This step is not done by jbosstools (3.1.0), and indeed, by doing a quick web search, I fell on the following jira: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6034, which states that: > [...] that would work in 4.2.x but not in jboss5 where the root of the war is no longer a part of the war's classpath (and never should have been!) Please fix it as soon as possible, as this problem affects any generated site and is pretty difficult to debug. On the other hand, it should be very easy to fix.
