Components not working with the RI (after extermination of the dummyForm)

[Bruno Aranda <br...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

After removing the dummyForm functionality, there are components based
on link navigation that don't work with the JSF-Ri, such as the
panelNavigation2 (and the tree, but that one IMO should be
deprecated).
If t:commandLink is deprecated, t:commandNavigation should be
deprecated too, but then we should have an alternative or a different
implementation of commandNavigation. I would go for the latter now...

Your thoughts?

Bruno

After a quick look at HtmlNavigationRenderer I think it should be
possible to use delegation instead of inheritance to make it work again.

So one has to duplicate all h:commandLink attributes to the
HtmlCommandNavigation component and then creates the real command link
using createComponent and delegate to this instance.

Well, I am not sure but might work.
If it works, the component will work with any kind of JSF impl then.

Ciao,
Mario

yea,
+1 on that.

When trinidad's incubation is done, it is definitly time to figure out
some merging components, validators and so forth.
