Problem with Facelets and Tomahawk

I have managed to get rid of errors. However, Tomahawk still does not work for me. I really do not have a clue why it doesn't.

But when I load the application, it looks like the tomahawk tags are not interpreted. I want to try the following code:

<h:form>

<t:panelTabbedPane bgcolor="#FFFFCC">

<t:panelTab label="Tab 1">

<f:verbatim><H1>Tab 1</H1></f:verbatim>

</t:panelTab>

<t:panelTab label="Tab 2">

<f:verbatim><H1>Tab 2</H1></f:verbatim>

</t:panelTab>

<t:panelTab label="Tab 3">

<f:verbatim><H1>Tab 3</H1></f:verbatim>

</t:panelTab>

<h:commandButton value="Common Button" action="..."/>

</t:panelTabbedPane>

</h:form>

But all I can see are three headers and one button. No, tabbed pane!

If I look at the source of the page then I see that the tomahawk tags are left untouched. Of course, I have defined a namespace for tomahawk: xmlns:t="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk". So, that could not be the problem.

I use the following libraries (which also cover all the dependencies needed for Tomahawk- see http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk/dependencies.html):

commons-beanutils-1.6.1.jar

commons-codec-1.3.jar

commons-collections-3.1.jar

commons-digester-1.6.jar

commons-el-1.0.jar

commons-fileupload-1.0.jar

commons-lang-2.1.jar

commons-logging-1.0.jar

commons-validator-1.1.4.jar

el-api-1.0.jar

el-ri-1.0.jar

jsf-facelets.jar

jstl-1.1.2.jar

tomahawk-1.1.3.jar

I also have the Extension filter in web.xml:

<!-- (Tomahawk) Extensions Filter -->

<filter>

<filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>

<filter-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.filter.ExtensionsFilter</filter-class>

<init-param>

<param-name>maxFileSize</param-name>

<param-value>20m</param-value>

<!-- <description>Set the size limit for uploaded files.

Format: 10 - 10 bytes

10k - 10 KB

10m - 10 MB

1g - 1 GB

</description> -->

</init-param>

</filter>

<filter-mapping>

<filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>

<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>

</filter-mapping>

<filter-mapping>

<filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>

<url-pattern>/faces/myFacesExtensionResource/*</url-pattern>

</filter-mapping>

Can anyone help me out with this? I would really appreciate it. I really dont know what options there are left, also because I get no error.

Cheers,

Luuk

sorry i missed the first part of your post. i could see that you have read http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Use_Facelets_with_Tomahawk

At any rate here is my web.xml in case this would help (i know you would be careful with some settings like config files, extensions, etc). I am using MyFaces/Tomahawk/Facelets and life has been better.

I have solved the problem. The cause was in my web.xml:

<context-param>

<param-name>facelets.LIBRARIES</param-name>

<param-value>/WEB-INF/proto1.taglib.xml</param-value>

</context-param>

<context-param>

<param-name>facelets.LIBRARIES</param-name>

<param-value>/WEB-INF/tomahawk.taglib.xml</param-value>

</context-param>

Apparantly, this is not the way to load two different tag libraries. In practice, only the first one will be loaded. In my case, it blocked Tomahawk.

So, I have solved the problem, but at the same time I am dealing with a new one. Maybe someone has a short answer on this one?

Anyway, javaBuff you have earned 3 stars.

Cheers,

Luuk
