MyFaces shared version question

[Simon Lessard <si...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

How does shared version numbering works? Is it 2.0.x for 1.1 and 3.0.x for
1.2 or something completely different? Also, as a related question should
2.0 branch use its own version of shared?


Regards,

Yep.

2.0.x for JSF-1.1, kept here:
  http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/shared/trunk/

3.0.x for JSF-1.2, kept here:
  http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/shared/trunk_3.0.x/

As far as I remember, the main reason for the split is to support 
java1.5 generics etc. I don't initially see any reason why JSF2.0 would 
need to have its own version of shared, and if you can avoid branching 
the code then that will make life easier for maintenance. So I would 
suggest staying with the existing 3.0.x line unless you run up against 
something that makes that impossible.

Simon
