thought, i mentioned it already -- there is no xhtml involved. i try to do
it entirely in java:
public class FedoraObjectContentComponentUI extends UIOutput
{
private byte[] myObject = null;
private String myMime, myDS, myID;
@Override
public String getFamily()
{
return "fedoraobjectcontent";
}
@Override
public String getRendererType()
{
return null;
}
@Override
public void encodeBegin(FacesContext context) throws IOException
{
super.encodeBegin(context);
final ResponseWriter writer = context.getResponseWriter();
writer.write("<br/>Foo</br>");
}
@Override
public Object saveState(FacesContext context)
{
Object values[] = new Object[5];
values[0] = super.saveState(context);
values[1] = myObject;
values[2] = myMime;
values[3] = myDS;
values[4] = myID;
return ((Object) (values));
}
@Override
public void restoreState(FacesContext context, Object state)
{
Object values[] = (Object[]) state;
super.restoreState(context, values[0]);
myObject = (byte[]) values[1];
myMime = (String) values[2];
myDS = (String) values[3];
myID = (String) values[4];
}
}
and in faces-config.xml
<component>
<component-type>component</component-type>
<component-class>my.package.Components.FedoraObjectContentComponentUI</component-class>
</component>
that's my component, basically.

I should have asked this earlier, what is my:component? Do you use
ui:component in the root of the xhtml file? Is there getConverter /
setConverter methods on the component?
If you could provide a small code snippet from the facelet and the
component that it uses that would help.

</converter>
as said before -- it works with standard components. so it seems to be
something trivial i do not see.
