Expeditor Developers: Configuring a project

Perform the following steps to configure a project to use the Sun JSF Reference Implementation:

Create a Client Services project with JSF support. See instructions in Java Server Faces (JSF) development. The project will be configured to use Apache JSF at project runtime or export (non-Apache artifacts may exists at project creation time).
Open the Manifest editor for the project, and select the Dependencies tab.
1. If org.apache.myfaces is listed under Required Plug-ins, remove it.
2. Add com.ibm.pvc.servlet.jsf to the Required Plug-ins.
Edit the project’s Client Services properties.
1. Right click the project and select Properties. Select the Client Services page.
2. Deselect the Apache MyFaces feature from the project’s Target features, and click OK.

When running the project, you must manually select the proper plug-in to include it in the runtime. On the launch configuration Plug-ins tab, ensure that com.ibm.pvc.servlet.jsf is selected.

Note: When using Run on Server, you can get to this tab through the Advanced… button.

Note: The Enhanced Faces component facet cannot be uninstalled from the target project once it is selected. You should only include the Enhanced Faces component if you intent to develop JSF applications using IBM® JSF support.
