We are currently in the process of switching over to JSF and a
suitable JSF component library. Our biggest challenge is choosing a suitable
JSF component library out of MyFaces Tomahawk, MyFaces Tobago and MyFaces
Trinidad. Please could you guys throw some clarity on the following issues,
1. is it absolutely necessary that we choose one of these three libraries ?
1. are these three component libraries going to be merged into one library ?
2. if you recommend Trinidad, is it a good idea to start using Trinidad
right away ? In other words do you foresee a lot of changes being committed
to the codebase in the next few months ? We are currently in the process of
prototyping; so it would be perfectly okay for us to use Trinidad as long as
your plan is to release a production-ready version of Trinidad in the next
1-2 months.
If you choose Tobago, you will be restricted to Tobago rendering
components. We are about to start a dialog on how we might make
Tobago more friendly with other component sets, but I doubt that will
be finished in 2 months.
Trinidad hasn't even left the incubator. It is unlikely to be in a
production-ready state in two months as it is undergoing many changes.
If 1-2 months is your target, then you are probably going to want to
use Tomahawk or possibly ADFFaces or some other commercial component
set.
