| Tomahawk | faces-context (via Faces-Context-Factory) | http://myfaces.apache.org, to wrap external-context and encodeResourceURL, encodeActionURL |
| Orchestra | faces-context (via Faces-Context-Factory) | http://myfaces.apache.org, to wrap external-context and there for encodeResourceURL, encodeActionURL |
| cs-JSF | faces-servlet, faces-context, navigation-handler, view-handler, el-resolver | cs-JSF team (e.g. Alexander Jesse, Martin Marinschek) - faces-servlet (with a hook into Mojarra-logging, cause some error conditions are only logged, not properly treated as errors) to provide proper exception-handling, faces-context to wrap external context and request-parameter map (for white-list validation - every request-parameter needs to be evaluated by the component-tree, if the component-tree does not expect it, there is an error-condition), for javascript-free link support (links are rendered as buttons if javascript is off - if parameters need to be passed, they are encoded in the button-client-id and made available via the request-parameter-map), the faces-context itself to hook into the creation/and the release of the faces-context and create/release a cs-JSF specific context at the same time, external-context to hook into encodeActionURL/encodeResourceURL and pass a specific id for conversations, the application to make sure when a form has already been created currently, no child of the form can be another form (a dummyform implementing NamingContainer? is then created and put into the component tree instead), the view-handler to integrate Facelets and a view-controller, the navigation-handler to support a dialog-system (if inside a specific component, the component-src attribute is changed instead of a full navigation, so parts of the page can be navigated), previous/forward in navigation tree and back/next in page history, el-resolver to support resolving enums and constants |
| RichFaces? | StateManager?.saveView, StateManager?.restoreView | These methods have been overwritten to prevent JSR RI incrementing server-side saved viewState id in the case of the AJAX request, because it is not make sense to keep views history for a same page. Also, these methods have additional behavior : they are save and restore special request scope objects like Jboss Seam “conversation” do. |
| RichFaces? | StateManager?.writeState | This method have been replaced just only for a MyFaces? 1.2.2+ compatibility, because they use some “hack” to avoid response buffering with server-side state saving. |
| RichFaces? | ViewHandler?.createView | This is real hack to get result of transition in the NavigationHandler?.handleNavigation method, because JSF don't have a legal way to get it without real navigation. Used in the special 'include' component which able to change url of the included page by existing JSF actions and navigation rules. |
| RichFaces? | ViewHandler?.writeState | This is obsolete workaround for an old JSF 1.1/JSP problem and should be removed in the future version |
| RichFaces? | ViewHandler?.getResourceURL | used to handle a special “resource” protocol, like weblets/Trinidad and some other projects do. It's little depend of the ViewHandlers? order and should be replaced by JSF 2.0 resources loading feature |
| RichFaces? | ViewHandler?.renderView | This method contains a some important partial rendering logic. I beleave it should be replaced by the JSF 2.0 partial rendering. |
| RichFaces? | LifecycleFactory?, Lifecycle | Just only kind of the unified exception handler and debug page generator, used by the special 'log' component. In difference with most other debug features it uses AJAX as a transport. Should be replaced by JSF 2.0 ExceptionHandler? feature. |
| RichFaces? | UIViewRoot? | This is an other part of the partial rendering/processing. All lifecycle methods extended to delegate work for a corresponding part of the components tree in the case of partial request |
| RichFaces? | RenderKitFactory?, RenderKit? | These classes have been extended to support RichFaces? skinnability feature. This is not a real RenderKit?, but just wrapper for existed ones. It could replace only a few renderers from an active renderkit if the skin require it. |
| RichFaces? | PhaseListener? | One listener initializes a some internal framework classes on the first request. This listener removes itself from Lifecycle after init procedure. Should be replaced by the application startap event listener |
| RichFaces? | PhaseListener? | Other listener uses as a third important part of the partial request processing. Should be replaced by the JSF 2.0 partial processing |
| portletbridge | FacesContextFactory?, FacesContext? | These classes extended for ExternalContext? manipulation only, because JSF have no separate ExternalContextFactory? |
| portletbridge | ExternalContext? | portal-specific implementation |
| portletbridge | ViewHandler?.createView | In the portal environment, each portlet has own namespace. To avoid clientId conflicts, UIViewRoot? in the portal have to implement NamingContainer? interface and generate its own clientId from portlet namespace. Also, portlet modes support required special viewId processing. Because JSF dos not allow access to the NavigationHandler? viewId calculations, there is a place for a viewMode parameters processing. |
| portletbridge | ViewHandler?.getActionURL | In the portal environment this method process EL-expression for a new viewId value, that also related to portlet modes processing |
| portletbridge | ViewHandler?.renderView | Little changes in the JSP processing code at the build view |
| portletbridge | PhaseListener? | this is Jboss/Richfaces related class only provides support for AJAX requests from portlet page |
| portletbridge | StateManager? | This is a terrible hack for access to a value of generated by ResponseStateManager? parameters, becouse they have to be saved in the portlet render parameters map |

| Trinidad | LifecycleFactory? | PartialLifecycle? and Rendering Prototype http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/trinidad/trunk_1.2.x/trinidad-partial-lifecycle/ |
| Trinidad | TrinidadELResolver? | servers some extra els, like requestContext or some extra scope (pageFlowScope) |
| Trinidad | ViewHandlerImpl? | checks modifications on timeStamp and deals with org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.render.InternalView API, needs to be defined in web.xml since we don't want it chained |
| Trinidad | StateManagerImpl? | StateManager? that handles a hybrid client/server strategy |
| Trinidad | NavigationHandlerImpl? | deals with Trinidad dialog framework (like dialog: outcomes) |
| Trinidad | FacesContextFactoryImpl? | Internal class that optimizes retrieval of the RenderKit? by caching it on the FacesContext? |
| Trinidad | RenderKitFactory? | RenderKitFactory? that implements CoreRenderKit? switching. |
| Trinidad | RenderKit? | all Trinidad componets are not html_basic they are a separate renderkit. some htmlBasic stuff is decorated and has some extra optimized responsewriters (like for xml) |
| Trinidad | converters | all are overridden to offer better handling (like in dateTime or number) and client side support |
| Trinidad | validators | all are overridden to offer client side support |
| Trinidad | PhaseListeners? | performs some trinidad logic and provides some hooks. |
| Custom closed source app | facelets.RESOURCE_RESOLVER | ServiceLoader? approach to ResourceResolver?, where prefixes in the form of /prefix:/some/thing/here is handled by a different kind of resource resolver that has a prefix associated with it. The different prefixes are loaded using JDK 6 ServiceLoader? class. One prefix we support is "resource" so /resource:/class/path/here can load any data from a jar resource. Also we support a "ui" prefix so /ui:com.package.Classname, the classname is looked at for annotations that tell us how to generate facelets on the fly so we can effectively edit a bean of that class. Works great the annotations specify facelets xhtml files that define where the xhtml content lives. |
