JavaServer Faces 2.0 facet [message #656800]

(Sorry for hijacking another thread to ask this, I've canceled that
message; here's the formal question on its own thread:)

I find myself unable to modify a Dynamic Web Project's Preferences ->
Project Facets -> JavaServer Faces to 2.0 from 1.2 and I can't find
anything too useful out in webland to help me do this for Helios.

Would someone enlighten me?

Thanks,

Russ Bateman

Changing jsf facet version on an existing project is not
supported, unfortunately. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=201792

You can still do so by manually editing an xml file in .settings folder,
but you can't do so via UI.

Yury,

How does it get set (to 2.0) in the first place? I don't know how to do
that. There used to be additional entries for the first page of the new
Dynamic Web Project wizard's Configuration drop-down.

Thanks for your answer(s).

Russ

It can be set when the project is created, same way it always worked.
There should be "JavaServer Faces 2.0" configuration in the drop down,
assuming you have web 3.0 level selected.

Wow, I feel like I'm brand new to this stuff.

Looking at two workspaces on my host, I see that new Dynamic Web Project
has a Dynamic web module version of 3.0 (and Configuration JavaServer
Faces v2.0 Project possible) available and, another, only 2.5 (and
Configuration has only JavaServer Faces v1.2 Project).

How did I configure the one workspace to be limited to 2.5 and the other
to allow 3.0? I don't remember doing anything when I created the second
workspace (which happens to be the one I do my JSF work in) to limit this.

At what moment do I endow a workspace with Dynamic web module version
(3.0) and Configuration (JavaServer Faces v2.0 Project)?

I looked at all the Preferences and couldn't find anything to change.

It can be limited to 2.5 if you have "Add to EAR" checked and the existing EAR
is at 2.5 level. Or it could be limited to 2.5 if you are targeting a server runtime
that only supports 2.5.

I see that Apache Tomcat v6.0's presence limits this while v7.0 does not.

Thanks.
