JBoss Seam dependencies

[erik.d.hellman]

I'm trying to find information on which APIs and their versions that are required for each Seam-release.

We are currently using JBoss Seam 1.2.1 (an upgrade to version 2.0.0 is not possible at this time). Can someone please tell me which versions and implementations of JSF are required and supported? The RichFaces and Ajax4JSF-components that comes with the release is not complete (i.e., there are some JSF tags missing) and the facelets-implementation contains a bug in the ui:repeat tag. These issues are not described in any of the official documentations available.

We would like to upgrade to the latest RichFaces (3.1.2), but that seems to require JSF 1.2, which doesn't seem to work with JBoss Seam 1.2.1. My guess is that there are other dependencies to different libraries that we might run into (Hibernate version, jBPM version etc.).

A list of the specific libraries required for each Seam-version would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

RichFaces/Ajax4jsf with 1.2.1.GA *are* complete - they are just older version (3.0/1.1.1 snapshot releases). The facelets bug is supposed to be fixed in the latest release of facelets. And no, we don't publish release notes for projects we bundle.

RichFaces 3.1.2 requires JSF 1.1 OR JSF 1.2. JSF 1.2 does work with Seam 1.2.1 - you need to read the reference manual http://docs.jboss.org/seam/1.2.1.GA/reference/en/html/tutorial.html#d0e2067

JSF certainly doesn't have any depedencies to JPA and certainly not to implementations of JPA like Hibernate or to JBoss frameworks like jBPM.
