rich:verbatim tag for serlvet-like capability within Richfaces
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: RF-7464
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-7464
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: component-misc
Affects Versions: 3.3.2.CR1
Environment: All environments
Reporter: Greg Zoller
Fix For: 3.3.1
Have you ever needed a servlet-like ability to inject some server-generated
HTML directly into the DOM but still want to be within the Richfaces
environment? Sure you can use JSF's <f:verbatim> tag but...this tag (at least
in my JSF implementation) has some undesirable caching with this tag that makes
rerendering come from the cache--not good if your backing server-side data
changed!
The proposed feature is the <rich:verbatim> tag. This works within Richface's
environment (so rerendering etc. works just fine) and allows you to insert any
server-generated HTML code into the DOM.
Why would you want to do this? Sometimes you just need to bypass JSF, for
example for performance reasons. JSF is particularly performance-challenged
when rendering very large tables, as I outlined here:
http://seamframework.org/Community/LargeTablePerformance2IgnoreOtherPost
Using <rich:verbatim> gets around this limitation nicely. As an added
advantage, since Richfaces is well-integrated w/Seam your server-side code has
full access to Seam's contexts, which a true servlet would not.
I've got a patch to the 3.3.1.GA source that implements this tag, which I will
attach to this ticket if JIRA will let me.
