One of the Sun Java Studio Creator engineers, Edwin Goei, has collected information about the steps required to import third party component libraries into Creator. Start at: http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/People/WritingCustomComponents Basically, the components themselves have to conform to some simple rules, and the library must also supply some extra metadata that describes how they should be integrated into Creator, packaged into a JAR file with a specialized manifest. I haven't had time to check whether the MyFaces components conform to the rules, but it would be a worthwhile exercise to verify this (and provide the appropriate metadata and packaging options in the build). > Thanks!
