Do we need to keep the old xml files in SVN? Ex.
HtmlCommandSortHeader.xml. I'm about to add a new property to the
component. Do I have to maintain the XML file? That seems like a
pain. I understand the usefulness of generating the code the first
time using the XML but I don't understand the
It would be good to provide a single authoritative source of information.
If you want to easily support other view handlers, you may need to
generate some configuration files for them.
For example, facelets needs configuration information in this format:
tag
I also think that most of the component documentation could have
easily been generated from the xml file using your template instead of
having individuals go through and manually type in all of that
information.
Perhaps. Lately I've been thinking about a way to automate this by
using the
In my personal experience I have used the codegen stuff of myfaces to
create new components, because you only define the xml and the
component is created magically :-). I know there is also the stuff to
generate the taglib for the wml stuff, but this one, IMO, could be
eliminated and only we
Could someone provide a quick overview of the code generation stuff.
I'd hate for us to drop it completely if its still useful.
If its not useful then lets get rid of the xml files and the comments
that say 'don't edit this code'.
My $0.02 worth.

It's rather simple and still useful IMO.
You just define the path of your (new) component in the according

or generate-single-components-component depending on
No code generation is going on in the new build AFAIK. I've mentioned
this a few times but everyone says that we are fine - let's release,
etc. :-)
There are the xml files which result in the generated code do not
alter portions of the source. Do we really need to keep these
around? They seem
What ever became of the codegen stuff?
I was hoping to submit a patch to automatically build a
myfaces.taglib.xml file for use with the facelets project, but I can't
seem to find it anymore.

must have been left out in the SVN reorg then - Sean, any comment on that?
thanks,
