Regarding Milestone 1 - Registering the JSF Implementation [message #470629] Mon, 31 October 2005 19:58 Go to next message

The "Register the JSF Implementation" use case calls for 6 pieces of
information:

* Name
* JSF Version supported
* Libraries
* Tag libraries
* Default servlet name
* Default servlet class

I don't think we need to collect "Tag Libraries" because the JSP spec
requires the tlds to be in the same jar as the implemenation so we can
just pick them up from the jar file.

You're absolutely right, John.

Our current research-in-progress for M1 slims this list down to collecting
just Name, JSF Version, and Libraries. The servlet class name is fixed (as
"javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet") by the JSF spec., and our current
thinking is that the "Default servlet name" should be a JSF preference, not
specific to any one implementation. (We haven't updated the M1 web page yet,
but we will as we work through our current investigations.)

It is possible (though not required) for a JSF implementation to include tag
libraries in addition to core and html, so post-M1 I expect we will explore
automated discovery of all TLDs in the specified libraries and possibly some
form of tag library registry.

Thanks for the input,
Ian Trimble (Oracle)

Actually, we've had a similar need in WTP's JSP component for a long
time. We've almost got a registry ready for API in the JSP
TaglibIndex class, but it's more oriented around locating a TLD (by
path or relative reference, web.xml mapping, project *buildpath*,
and JSP 1.2 auto-discovered URI) and providing information on how to
access its contents than actually modelling its contents directly.
Perhaps there's some space for collaboration, if not at least the
potential for reuse?

We are definitely interested in looking into the registry implementation
in the ESP component. Please point us to any design doc on this feature.
We can explore areas of collaboration for the TWP 1.5 release.

The design is intentionally minimal as it's oriented around
providing the information to retrieve the contents of a .tld so it
can be modelled, not providing a model of the .tld itself. You'll
find it documented at
http://eclipse.org/webtools/jst/components/jsp/designs/tagli bindex/taglibindex.html.
That in turn is linked from the JSP Component's Overview at
http://eclipse.org/webtools/jst/components/jsp/overview.html .
Questions, bug reports, and other feedback are welcome.
