Hi,
I’ve been playing around with the new JSF web designer.
I feel that there are still a lot of things that could be improved.
1. When I load a resource bundle using <f:loadBundle>, then the design editor does not recognize my messages. (Exadel does…)
2. The tomahawk tags (myfaces extensions) are not available in the visual editor.
3. There is no way to add custom components to the visual editor.
4. The faces config editor complains when the <property-class> of a managed bean is an interface. I am using Spring beans and the Spring DelegatingVariableResolver; because Spring initializes the beans before JSF needs them, there is no problem with interfaces.
However, 4.0GA still is a major improvement over 3.8!
Regards,
Erik-Berndt
