Custom components

[Jana Parvanova <ja...@sirma.bg>]

Hi!

Can someone point me to an example of real-life complex custom component - I 
mean something with several inputs inside, complex validation, change 
listeners etc.
All samples I've seen so far are of simple components extending UIInput or 
UIOutput.

Tnanks,
Jana

Hm, that seems useful also.
Thanks.

To make a complex component, I usually instantiate and populate existing 
components in backing beans and use binding attribute of tags withing JSPs:

<t:panelTabbedPane binding="#{recordEditorBean.component}"/>

The recordEditorBean has get/setComponent methods. I create, populate 
and configure the component in the constructor and simply return it in 
the getter.

Bye.
