    CDK Guide

      I've followed your CDK guide exactly as documented and I've encountered a problem that is a show stopper. Using the CDK documentation, how do I do a 'mvn install' to get the 'InputDateRenderer' to extend 'InputDateRendererBase'?

      Here's the problem: when I invoke 'mvn clean install', 'InputDateRenderer' is created extending not 'InputDateRendererBase' but rather 'AjaxComponentRendererBase'. The problem is that the 'AjaxComponentRendererBase' does not have a

      getValueAsString()
      method, which is causing a compilation error. Your distribution contains a jar that does indeed contain the 'InputDateRenderer' extending 'InputDateRendererBase'

      \docs\cdkguide\en\src\main\resources\examples\inputDate-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

      Btw, I've customized the packages structure and used a different artifactId - (its broken using the example's naming as well) and used the following command to create the archive: 
      mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.richfaces.cdk -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-jsf-component -DarchetypeVersion=3.2.1.GA -DartifactId=platformCdkLibrary


      I'm using JDK 1.5, RichFaces (tried both 3.2.1 and 3.2.2), and maven 2.0.9 and this error occurs using the command line or the eclipse maven plugin.

      + Error stacktraces are turned on.

          Problem solved and (thank you for your guide).

          I spent too much time figuring this out only to solve the problem minutes of posting a question to the forum (of course). The problem is that the CDK guide section 4.4.1 doesn't say that the baseclass value of the htmlInputDate.jspx file must be modified to reference the 'InputDateRendererBase'. The Note, below is not explicit enough:

          As it is seen in the Template Skeleton the Renderer Baseclass is org.ajax4jsf.renderkit.AjaxComponentRendererBase. You need to define Renderer Base class special for the component. In the next section "Creating a Renderer Base class" we will create Renderer Base class org.mycompany.renderkit.InputDateRendererBase.

          Below is the modified template required to successfully compile:

          <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<f:root
 xmlns:f="http://ajax4jsf.org/cdk/template"
 xmlns:c=" http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
 xmlns:ui=" http://ajax4jsf.org/cdk/ui"
 xmlns:u=" http://ajax4jsf.org/cdk/u"
 xmlns:x=" http://ajax4jsf.org/cdk/x"
 class="org.mycompany.renderkit.html.InputDateRenderer"
 baseclass="org.ajax4jsf.renderkit.InputDateRendererBase"
 component="org.mycompany.component.UIInputDate" >
...

</f:root>


          Keep up the great work!
