Hi Carsten, first, the question is about Java-JSF-components, or Facelets-JSF-components?
if 1) write a new/extended Java-JSF-component, if you need to change the behaviour of the component-model or need to add attributes to the component model write a new/extended Java-JSF-renderer if you want to change the display of the component only - based on already existing attributes 2) write a Facelets-JSF-component whenever you have recurring sections of markup which you would otherwise copy and paste regards, Martin On 8/15/07, Carsten Pieper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hello everyone, > > as a "spin-off" of another thread in this forum: I'm wondering what the > criteria > are when to implement one's own component and when "only" to extend > existing > renderer classes? > > I for one haven't the experience really to speak up for one of the above > (just, > as a user, I noticed that my own components, of course, aren't supported > by > the IDE, but this surely is a minor point...). > > Any thoughts are welcome! > > Greetings, > Carsten > > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/When-to-extend-an-existing-renderer-class-and-when-to-write-one%27s-own-component--tf4272162.html#a12159324 > Sent from the MyFaces - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > -- http://www.irian.at Your JSF powerhouse - JSF Consulting, Development and Courses in English and German Professional Support for Apache MyFaces
