Hi All,
I've got a couple of (probably silly) questions about our JSF support, I
wonder if someone can help me out?
- I notice we include myfaces-1.2 api and impl jars in our Tomcat
distribution - are we correct to do this? Shouldn't the application
developer be able to provide their own jars in WEB-INF/lib, say for example
if they wanted to use the com.sun version instead of MyFaces for example? I
can get an application to deploy with this jar config (i.e. putting the ones
I want in WEB-INF/lib), but I have to delete myfaces-* from
webapps/openejb/lib first.
- Anyone tried using JSF2 with OpenEJB/Tomcat? I think I've got everything
setup right, and the app deploys, but I'm running into an error when I
access a page that uses a ManagedBean:

I thought maybe my ManagedBean wasn't being deployed correctly. I have an
empty beans.xml in WEB-INF. Is there anyway to check what managed beans have
been deployed?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
Jon
