Hmm, OK, thanks; that makes sense. So, it's either time to start
wrapping Dojo widgets with JSF components, or time to learn about
Shale's remoting features ;-)
Picking up on this- I'm just about to refactor two Dojo/JSP projects
(one work, one personal) into Dojo/Shale/JSF/Hibernate projects, and
this sliver of the stack is exactly what I'm wrestling with. My first
thought was to define a relatively narrow Dojo interface for thick
client-side stuff (letting MyFaces do simple stuff like autocompletes),
keeping the server fairly decoupled, but now I'm wondering if they can
be wired more tightly.
Somebody posted on the Dojo mailing list about weaving Dojo libraries
into MyFaces ... it wasn't clear (to me, at least) whether this was just
for the purpose of using it for behind-the-scenes utility functions, or
for AJAX-ifying current JSF components, or for wrapping Dojo widgets as
Laurie mentioned. Does anyone know where MyFaces is going in this
regard? I expect at first I'll be doing a lot of hand-wired Shale
remoting in widgets, but it'd be great to have some idea of where to
expect "help" in the future.
