Facelets fallback?

[grettke_spdr]

Hi all,

Thus far we have used facelets and it has been great. We even used facelets for pdf generation and that worked well.

Lo and behold we find out that facelets don't run on WAS at the moment:

Basically the classloader can't can't load resources from META-INF/; which is a huge problem for jsf-facelets.jar.

We are brainstorming on workarounds to the issue:

-Fall back to JSP, rewrite the pdf generation somehow
-Wait for the fixpack
-Relocate all of the resources and references to from meta-inf to web-inf

What would you folks do?

Not pay IBM anymore.

In our JPA examples for WAS, we chose to do

-Relocate all of the resources and references to from meta-inf to web-inf

Ugly, but it seemed to work.

Thanks for letting us know Michael!

Nice to know someone else already addressed this.
