AuctionMonitor is now basically running again under JSF 1.2 (some static text problems and complaints
about missing navigation rules, but the clocks tick and the application is interactive):

To run ICEfaces under JSF 1.2 it is important to build it without jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar in the .war
file.

The ability to run icefaces on JSF 1.2 runtimes is becoming more of a
requirement in the community.

Initial target is to support JSF 1.2 runtimes with Facelets only.

Carlo, please run some verifications of the current trunk using facelets (facelets Showcase?) on JSF 1.2 runtimes, perhaps GlassFish.

I tested the trunk version of component showcase (as build.facelet.war) and icefaces with the Glassfish server and jsf 1.2 libs, on Firefox 2.0.0.3 Linux. Glassfish required adding a few parameters to the <web-app> tag in web.xml so it would deploy fine.

Stylesheets...

Javascript error console complaint about the MIME type of our xp.css stylesheet. I believe this is just tighter restrictions by Glassfish and jsf 1.2. The error is:

Error: The stylesheet http://localhost:8080/component-showcase/xmlhttp/css/xp/xp.css was not loaded because its MIME type, "text/plain", is not "text/css".

The line in question is:
<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='./xmlhttp/css/xp/xp.css'/>
Whereas our other stylesheet link throws no errors:
<link href="css/showcase_style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></link>

The fix could be as simple as changing the link closing from /> to ></link>.

Note that because of this error, the testing below was done with 'broken' styles.

Components...
All components except the following seemed fine:

Drag and Drop
I could drag the targets from the left column, and the yellow highlight effect was fired properly when hovered over the drop target. But when I dropped the item into the cart, it didn't add to the column on the right.

Table Row Selection
When I clicked on a row in the left column, it would not add to the right column.

Position Panel
I could drag and drop names in the left table, but it did not affect the order of the right table.

r13426: Modified our ServeCSSResource servlet to explicitly set the content type to 'text/css', as the default 'text/plain' was causing the issue mentioned above about loading xp.css.

Assign to Rob to investigate these issues:

The problem is that Method Bindings are not being set, JSF 1.2 is not calling setValueBinding in the component or setProperties in the tag. Still investigating.

Checked in generator changes to add Method Bindings for all tags that need them.
r13498

Removed Facelets' reliance on overriding UIComponents' setValueBinding for MethodBindings. Tested MethodBindings with JSF 1.1 JSP, JSF 1.1 Facelets, JSF 1.2 Facelets.

List of MethodBindings:

ice:panelGroup
com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlPanelGroup
void dragListener(DragEvent)
void dropListener(DropEvent)

ice:rowSelector
com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.RowSelector
void selectionListener(RowSelectorEvent)
void selectionAction()

ice:inputFile
com.icesoft.faces.component.inputfile.InputFile
void progressListener(EventObject)

ice:outputChart
com.icesoft.faces.component.outputchart.OutputChart
void renderOnSubmit(OutputChart) ** Attribute can be a Boolean or MethodBinding

ice:panelPositioned
com.icesoft.faces.component.panelpositioned.PanelPositioned
void listener(PanelPositionedEvent)

ice:panelTabSet
com.icesoft.faces.component.paneltabset.PanelTabSet
void tabChangeListener(TabChangeEvent)

Changed find component calls to

UIComponent uiComponent = D2DViewHandler.findComponent(id, context.getViewRoot());
