Installing JavaServer Faces

[Michael Thomsen <mi...@gmail.com>]

Hi, could someone tell me if there is any difference between
installing any of the implementaitons of JavaServer Faces in Tomcat
and doing it in Sun's Application Server? I remember reading somewhere
that their server is based on Tomcat, so I was unsure. Any help would
be appreciated.

What do you mean by "installing"?  I typically just include the relevant 
.jar and config files as part of the webapp (.war file) that will use them.

Does Sun's server make the JSF implementation available to all webapps?  If 
so, then I believe the equivalent would be placing the JSF api and 
implementation .jar files in 'shared/lib' as discussed here:

   http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html

Having never done it, I'm not certain that's the right answer... I prefer my 
webapps to be self-contained.
