Overwriting tomahawk component...

[Jorge Vásquez]

Regards,

I am requiring to change some behaviour in the datascroller component and I
have decided to overwrite it.  (Of course, I already tried out all the
possibilities it offered and didn´t found what I needed).

I am using facelets so first thing I changed was tomahawk.taglib.xml where I
added the following:

 

      <tag>

            <tag-name>dataScroller</tag-name>

            <component>

                  <component-type>

                        org.apache.myfaces.modified.HtmlDataScroller

                  </component-type>

                  <renderer-type>

                        org.apache.myfaces.modified.DataScroller

                  </renderer-type>

            </component>

      </tag>

 

Next thing I did was I changed faces-config.xml and added the following:

 

      <render-kit>

            <renderer>

                  <component-family>javax.faces.Panel</component-family>

 
<renderer-type>org.apache.myfaces.modified.DataScroller</renderer-type>

                  <renderer-class>

 
com.alerotech.client.myfaces.custom.datascroller.ALTHtmlDataScrollerRenderer

                  </renderer-class>

            </renderer>

      </render-kit>

 

      <component>

 
<component-type>org.apache.myfaces.modified.HtmlDataScroller</component-type
>

 
<component-class>com.alerotech.client.myfaces.custom.ALTHtmlDataScroller</co
mponent-class>

    </component>

 

I am getting the following error:

 

javax.faces.FacesException: Undefined component type
org.apache.myfaces.modified.HtmlDataScroller

 

 

I don´t know what I am missing here, I have the respective classes:

com.alerotech.client.myfaces.custom.datascroller.ALTHtmlDataScrollerRenderer

and

com.alerotech.client.myfaces.custom.ALTHtmlDataScroller

 

Is there any known procedure to extend components?  What step am I missing?
