Olivier Martin commented on RF-3586:
------------------------------------

> 1. Doesn't work in clustered environments 

Does that mean we won't be able to use RichFaces in a clustered environment ?

What type of cluster ? 
- affinity based 
- session reclication based



> URLs of resources are not predictable

>                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-3586
>             Project: RichFaces
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: docs updated, planning_all
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.4, 3.1.5, 3.2.0
>            Reporter: Olivier Martin
>            Assignee: Tsikhon Kuprevich

> The way RichFaces generates URLs for the scripts and styles is incompatible 
> with security restrictions in a corporate world.
> When applications are deployed in production, the list of the URLs it uses 
> has to be known : the Firewalls are configured with this "white-list" and a 
> "black-list" forbidding URLs with ".." characters.
> For instance the following URL has several problems :
> a4j_3_1_5.GAcss/table.xcss/DATB/eAF7P..bLgAIQwM..faces
> * The prefix "a4j_3_1_5.GA" can be configured, but usually the projects don't 
> bother to do it, thus this part is gonna change with each RichFaces release
> * The part "eAF7P..bLgAIQwM." is unpredictable, it depends on the value of 
> the object SkinImpl.hashcode()  ?!!
> * The part "eAF7P..bLgAIQwM." contains ".."' characters
> Overall we had to bypass the usual security restrictions to put an 
> application in production, this is unacceptable.
