1. Re: s:link not supported for JSP?
pmuir May 23, 2006 3:50 PM (in response to tiidaa)AFAIK the seam tags only work with Facelets as the view handler and not with JSP. There are no Tag files atm. If you aren't using facelets and starting afresh you should definitely consider using it.

Do you think you could point me to where this information could be found? I've been looking at the online wiki, FAQ, and the PDF reference document on Seam, and I hadn't seen any place where it said that Facelets was required to use Seam's tags (the Seam reference is careful to say "JSP or Facelets" when making references to the view), so I may be missing a valuable source of information.
I am working on a large existing application that uses JSP and MyFaces, and I was hoping that I could use some of Seam's features here and there like the <s:link> tag and support for conversation state. We're not currently planning on using Facelets. Does <s:link> seem likely to be be added to the tld file in the future? -

gavin.king May 23, 2006 4:09 PM (in response to tiidaa)I need to somehow find the time to implement a JSP taglib for the Seam controls. Unfortunately I am super-busy right now.

tiidaa May 23, 2006 4:36 PM (in response to tiidaa)I really appreciate the information from everyone. If the tag libraries are structured such that you have to duplicate effort to support both JSP and Facelets, I can understand how one may happen to get written before the other.
