[Lukáš Fryč (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12936?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12768834#comment-12768834 ] 

Lukáš Fryč commented on RF-12936:
---------------------------------

Note that all occurences of jQuery reference would need to be replaced,

and this does not count with external libraries (e.g. jQuery UI).

> The {{richfaces.js}} references both, {{jQuery}} from closure and global {{$}} - this issue is addressed in RF-12833.
> However jQuery should not be used directly, rather from closures - prefered way is to use {{$}} but its naming now conflicts with {{RichFaces.$}} for component references.
> I suggest to use following trick:
> {code:title=richfaces.js}
> RichFaces.jQuery = RichFaces.jQuery || jQuery;
> //encapsulation
> (function($, RichFaces) {
>     // free to use $ here
> }(RichFaces.jQuery, RichFaces));
> {code}
> It will allow:
> * provide own jQuery for RichFaces
> * use libraries which make use of {{$}} (prototype, other jQuery versions) in no-conflicting way
