Hi Adam, sorry that it took me 2 days to reply but I was working on a different project.
Using JSP and MyFaces is kind of a historical thing. I started with JSP and Struts, added Tiles, replaced Struts with MyFaces and now added ADF. Facelets is something I haven't tried yet. About the ClassCastException I had: Right now I can't reproduce it anymore. Might be something else I changed in my application. But anyway, if the signature of the method "protected final void setProperties(UIComponent component)" allows a UIComponent, I would expect that any casting to UIXComponent would make sure if this is possible first.

März 2006 19:03 An: MyFaces Discussion Betreff: Re: java.lang.NullPointerException during render phase when using ADF and MyFaces Tomahwak components together I confess, I haven't tried Tiles with ADF, largely because Facelets templating is so vastly superior to Tiles (esp. Tiles w/JSF, which is not a good combination.) I'm curious about this class-cast exception you're seeing: why do you have a UIXComponentTag that isn't using a UIXComponent?
