Use this task to configure IBM Portlet Bridge for JavaServer Faces (JSF) 2.0. Portlet Bridge for JavaServer Faces is available as v8.0.0.2.
- Open the portlet.xml file and modify the portlet class for JSF 2.0 portlet bridge, as follows:
<portlet-class>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.FacesPortlet</portlet-class> <init-param> <name>com.ibm.faces.portlet.page.view</name> <value>/TestProjectView.xhtml</value> <init-param>
- Open the faces-config.xml file and add the JSF 2.0 portlet bridge variable resolver, view handler, and resource handler entry
<application> <variable-resolver>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.PortletVariableResolver</variable-resolver> <view-handler>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.FaceletPortletViewHandler</view-handler> <resource-handler>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.httpbridge.PortletResourceHandler</resource-handler> </application>
If the portlet project has a custom portlet class, these changes are also necessary:
- Point the portlet-class entry in the portlet.xml file to the particular custom portlet class used.
- Modify the portlet class to extend the com.ibm.faces20.portlet.FacesPortlet class from the IBM Portlet Bridge for JSF 2.0.
