To Use Trinidad in JSF

I have JSF all set up and working.

There is a tag provided by the Trinidad, <inputListOfValues>, particularly suit the need of the project on which I am working.

How do I import the Trinidad into JSF? I found the "howtos" (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/trinidad/trinidad.html)

for setting up the Trinidad in the JDevelper environment. I use the IBM RAD 7.0 as IDE instead. Do I follow the same JDeveloper procedure to set up the Trinidad?

The GUIs for the project is exetremely customized. I have to modified the "look-and feel" of the Trinidad tags. Where do I find the Trinidad "stylesheet" to change the styles for browser display?

I had signification problems using RAD 6.x plus IBM Websphere 6.0 and 6.1 and ADF/Trinidad. I hear 6.2 should fix this and RAD 7.0 may play better, I went to JDeveloper for this exact reason.

Using Trinidad in JDeveloper (as opposed to using ADF) is very straight forward. Create a JSF project and instead of using oracles ADF components import the trinidad jars (two of them) as libraries and away you go.

The configuration files between the two of them are similar except that you need to replace oracle.* classes with the corresponding trinidad classes.

To use Trinidad in RAD is similar, what I would do is first set it up in JDeveloper and create then take the project and import it into RAD.

To modify the LAF for Trinidad you should use the skin (CSS stylesheet) and there are several good articles on web (look for Trinidad Skin) on how to do this.

This is a good link to start with for Trinidad http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Trinidad
