You can have the file anywhere inside your application's context root (e.g. /WebContent), I believe.
The main benefit of putting config files in WEB-INF folder is that the folder is by default protected by the server
in that it's not accessible by users. If you put the file into /WebContent/folder, then a user can enter the path
in the browser and take a look at your configuration file.

If your file was in /WebContent/folder, then the param value would be /folder/faces-config2.xml,
assuming /WebContent is your application's context root.

When creating multiple faces config files, it is correct to have the faces-config.xml outside of WEB-INF? The JSF spec does not seem to be very clear about this (Section 10.1.3)

If yes, how should this faces-config.xml be declared in web.xml? the paths generated by IDE's (like Eclipse/JDev) generally use something like:


   javax.faces.CONFIG_FILES
   /WEB-INF/faces-config1.xml

Now, if my faces-config.xml is outside WEB-INF -- is it correct to declare the param-value as something like "/WebContent/WEB-INF/faces-config2.xml"?

The HTML generated by the Web Page Editor is a design-time approximation of what is generated at runtime. The obvious way to get the correct HTML is by running the form on a server. -Raghu

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of a way I can generate HTML file from an already designed JSF page.

I was thinking if I can simulate how the Web page editor does on right click and "View Source" of a web page.

Any ideas ?

Visual editing of Facelets in the Web Page Editor is not supported in Galileo. We will be working on it in a future release. We welcome contributions from the community.

[news.eclipse.webtools.jsf] visual editing of JSF facelets

Does "Web Page Editor" [Web tools project] support visual editing of JSF facelets? I have added JSF-facelet library to Web page editor palette but when I use components like decorate, I dont see the controls being rendered on the source page.

Thanks,
Sunil

I'm a little confused by the previous message. I'm using Galileo. Is there a place to download the current version of facelets tools for JSF 1.2 support?

Is it the same as the version for Eclipse 3.4?

Hi,

I hate to answer my own question. I found out that this erratic behaviour is caused by a workspace create by ganymed 3.4. If I create a new Workspace with 3.5 (galileo) the initial tooling seems to work correctly.

Thanks,

Hi,
The only default JSF configuration available when creating a new dynamic web project in galileo jee is still java server faces 1.1.

One has to choose customize... . In this Dialog is java server faces 1.2 available.
Is this a bug or a feature?
Greetings,
  Olaf
