Good idea. I also believe that using the myfaces library isn't recommended anymore from Gavin because the quality isn't that great.

Or are only the Tomahawk components not recommended?

We want to move away from using myfaces, but JBoss 4 only ships with myfaces. I think the hope is to get the JBoss installer to install the RI instead of myfaces. When/if that happens, I'm sure we'll switch seam-gen to using that by default. Otherwise, it might not be until there is a usable JBoss 5. Right now JBoss 5 is very, very beta.

Hi guys,

I shall put problems related to library that I found when deploying Seam apps on JBoss AS 5 here. Actually I am quite confused whether to put this topic on Seam sub-forum or the EJB container sub-forum. But since Norman asked, here it goes.

Currently I am testing Seam 1.1.0CR1 on JBoss AS 5.0.0Beta1

I found this error stack when deploying seam-numberguess example from Seam 1.1.0CR1

Now this is related to the cglib library that is not found in JBoss AS 5 classpath. This problem didn't arise when I put cglib library in $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/lib

Questions that arised from me:
1. Shall this cglib library be put under server's classpath or jbossweb.deployer?
2. Shouldn't Seam use javassist library instead? Rather than having two library that has same functionality?

5. Re: Update Seam JSF library againts JBoss5

Again from the same example (seam-numberguess). This error stack arise when I hit the application from the browser.

I don't if my workaround is the right thing to do, but this error didn't arise when I put
1. el-api.jar
2. el.ri.jar
3. jsf-facelets.jar

Either under $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/lib or jbossweb.deployer/jsf-libs
