webMethods Knowlegebase : Support JSF 2.2 with ABE 9.8 (1769746)

Troubleshooting


Problem

Projects in Designer 9.8 (eg. Portlet Application Project or Java Utility Project) use JSF version 2.2 in their build path.

(see <installdir>/common/runtime/bundles/mws-main/eclipse/plugins/org.glassfish.javax.faces_2.2.8.jar).

When a project is built with ABE, JSF version 1.2 is used in the classpath

(see <installdir>/common/lib/ext/jsf-api.jar).

This causes problems, for example:

When a project uses javax.faces.UIComponent#getClientId() the build with ABE fails with compile errors (as JSF 1.2 does not contain this method).

1. A modification of the order of the classpath in /AssetBuildEnvironment/MWS/build.xml is not a valid option

2. Trying the following modification:

<fileset dir="${common.lib.dir}/../runtime/bundles/mws-main/eclipse/plugins" includes="*.jar" erroronmissingdir="false"/> <--! line was moved to 1st position -->

<fileset dir="${common.lib.dir}/ext" includes="*.jar"/>

<fileset dir="${common.lib.dir}" includes="*.jar" excludes="*-components.jar" />

<fileset dir="${common.lib.dir}/glassfish" includes="*.jar"/>

<fileset dir="${common.lib.dir}/../runtime/agent/repository/plugins" includes="*.jar" erroronmissingdir="false"/>

<fileset dir="${common.lib.dir}/../runtime/bundles/wss/eclipse/plugins" includes="*.jar" erroronmissingdir="false"/>

In this case the build is successful, however when JARs are built, the type in ACDLs is set to 'cdp' instead of 'jar'.
