[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-210?page=comments#action_12357391 ]
Mike Kienenberger commented on MYFACES-210: ------------------------------------------- Adam, that was my thought as well, but the only documentation I've been able to find on these attributes is as follows. http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd ============================== The "converter" element represents a concrete Converter implementation class that should be registered under the specified converter identifier. Converter identifiers must be unique within the entire web application. Nested "attribute" elements identify generic attributes that may be configured on the corresponding UIComponent in order to affect the operation of the Converter. Nested "property" elements identify JavaBeans properties of the Converter implementation class that may be configured to affect the operation of the Converter. ============================== Note that other attributes on other elements (such as component/property) specifically say "may be exposed for manipulation via tools." It sounds like the expert group and the documentation don't agree. > Undesired dependency on ApplicationImpl in FacesConfigurator > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MYFACES-210 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-210 > Project: MyFaces > Type: Bug > Components: Implementation > Versions: 1.0.9m9 > Environment: Custom ApplicationFactory and Application Objects > Reporter: Walter Snel > Assignee: Martin Marinschek > Priority: Minor > > Manfred's recent additions related to the configurability of Converters > created a dependency on a particular Application implementation in the > FacesConfigurator. > I noticed this because I'm using a custom ApplicationFactory that returns a > custom Facade (with augmentations) to the ApplicationImpl class. > In this case the FacesConfigurator doesn't call the > addConverterConfiguration. This, later on, leads to horrible nullpointer > exceptions when any of standard converters are used. Perhaps we could > consider using relfection instead of the current 'instanceof' mechanism to > find out if the addConverterConfiguration() method is supported ? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
