The fixes for bugs 299813 and 308092 include support for the new JSF2.0 viewScope. This bug tracks adding view scope support to the FacesConfigEditor.
*** Bug 314182 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Please, consider again this missing feature. I will explain why: Helios RC3 don’t show in FacesConfig Editor, in the page "ManagedBean", the possibility to choose view scoped. This is annoying, since Helios won’t have annotation scanning, then, I have to guide myself through this. Place an managedBean in the faces-config.xml works, but FacesConfig Editor won’t show view scoped managedBeans, leading the programmer to think that this managedBean is not registered. View Scoped is present in JSF 2.0 specification.
I think faces-config editor don’t need to make a distinction between JSF 1 and 2 to show view scoped in managedBean Page. If the programmer chooses viewScoped for JSF 1.0, the faces-config.xml won’t validate, thus, warning the programmer.
Thanks for your feedback. I understand the limitation of the current support in this area. We couldn't get to this enhancement in Helios due to the limited resources we have. Also, since this would involve changes in UI, we were not able to work on it beyond the M7/RC1 milestones. We will consider this in the next release of the JSF Tools project.
