Matthias, Thanks for your quick reply!
Unfortunately, this was already my first thought.. So I created a brand new project with only myfaces-1.2.3 in classpath, and in a stupid class I tried to get the Application interface to see the available methods. Same result.. Could this be linked to some incorrect version of my javax - libraries? (myfaces 1.2 requires JSP 2.1 and JSTL 1.2). Are there any references from myfaces.apache.org on which libraries to use and where to get them?

Hi, I see the method here: http://myfaces.apache.org/core12/myfaces-api/apidocs/javax/faces/application/Application.html#getExpressionFactory() perhaps you somehow have both libs in your clazzpath ? -M On Sat, Jul 5, 2008 at 3:17 PM, Eivind Ronnevik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi! > > > > I've been working with Myfaces-1.1.5 for some time, but now decided to > change to the 1.2 implementation, with myfaces-1.2.3 jars. > > > > I've had no problems in creating and deploying an application, but suddenly > I hit a problem I don't understand > > > > I wanted to create a component programmatically (HtmlCommandLink), and set > the action with the MethodBinding, as I've always done in myfaces-1.1.5: > > > > MethodBinding methodBinding = > FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createMethodBinding( > > "#{myHandler.myAction}",null); > > htmlCommandLink.setAction( methodBinding ) > > > > But then my IDE (Eclipse) reported this method (createMethodBinding) as > deprecated.
