So far, this is what I have that is partially working:
*copy faces-config.xml to sun-faces-config.xml
*change the following for 'htmlDate' as an example in
sun-faces-config.xml:
=============================================
....
<component>
<component-type>org.apache.myfaces.HtmlInputDate</component-type>
<component-class>org.apache.myfaces.custom.date.HtmlInputDate</component
-class>
<!-- Hide the non-typesafe Value property -->
<property>
<property-name>value</property-name>
<property-extension>
<category>DATA</category>
<is-hidden>false</is-hidden>
<is-bindable>true</is-bindable>
</property-extension>
</property>
<component-extension>
<component-family>javax.faces.Input</component-family>
<renderer-type>org.apache.myfaces.Date</renderer-type>
</component-extension>
</component>
.....
<renderer>
<component-family>javax.faces.Input</component-family>
<renderer-type>org.apache.myfaces.Date</renderer-type>
<renderer-class>org.apache.myfaces.custom.date.HtmlDateRenderer</rendere
r-class>
<renderer-extension>
<instance-name>htmlDate</instance-name>
<tag-name>htmlDate</tag-name>
<taglib-prefix>x</taglib-prefix>
<taglib-uri>http://myfaces.apache.org/extensions</taglib-uri>
</renderer-extension>
</renderer>
=============
Add the following to the MANIFEST.MF used to create the
myfaces-extensions.complib:
================
X-Rave-API-Compatibility-Version: 1.0
X-Rave-Library-URI: http://myfaces.apache.org/extensions
X-Rave-Library-Version: 1.0.9
X-Rave-Library-Title: MyFacesExtensions
X-Rave-Runtime-Path: myfaces-extensions.jar
X-Rave-Design-Time-Path: myfaces-extensions-dt.jar
====================
And lastly, the RAVE tool in JSC does autogenerate the BeanInfoBase
classes (and there are also some ANT examples that you can use from the
JSC examples I think). However, you still need to manually create the
BeanInfo that extends the base:
