Is it possible to make a richfaces 3.3.3 module on Jboss 7?

eduardo.mello.cantu Dec 5, 2011 2:18 PM

I'm migrating an application (JBoss Seam 2.2.2.Final + JBoss Richfaces 3.3.3 (JSF 1.2)) from JBoss 4.2.3.GA to JBoss 7.1.0.Beta1.

The main purpose of doing this migration is that my application uses JBoss Portlet Container to show some Portlets (Seam 2.2.2 + Richfaces 3.3.3) and I'm facing a ClassCastException when my Portlet try to render some Richfaces tag.

The only solution that I've found on JBoss 4.2.3.GA was to share the classloaders between Portal and Portlets, but it wasn't very practical.

Reading about JBoss 7 module classloader I thought that I would be abble to turn richfaces into a module and then share it between Portal and portlet but until now I wasn't abble to to it so.

Can someone please help me?

Just to add some info, the ClassCastException also occurs on JBoss AS 7.1.0.Beta1 when I pack both application (Portal) and portlet with richfaces (api, imp and ui) jars.

You'll have to post the exception stacktrace and also explain a bit more about your packaging.

As I said on the first post, I've an issue running my portal application along with portlets developed with seam, richfaces and portlet bridge. Going deep I've figure it out that my problem was that the portal was loaded by a different classloader than the portlet, so as the classcastexception.

That's why I've tried to turn richfaces into a module so both application and portlet could use from there instead packing then with it.

Here's my packages:

Portal application:

app.ear
-lib
--hibernate.3.4.0.GA-stuff.jar
--commons-*.jar
--portletcontainer-stuff.jar
--richfaces.3.3.3.Final-api.jar
-jboss-seam.2.2.2.Final.jar
-app.jar
-app.war
--WEB-INF
---lib
----portletcontainer-stuff.jar
----jboss-microkernel-stuff.jar
----richfaces.3.3.3.Final-impl.jar
----richfaces.3.3.3.Final-ui.jar
----jsf-facelets.1.1.15.B1.jar
----jboss-seam-ui.2.2.2.Final

Portlet application:

portlet.ear
-lib
--hibernate.3.4.0.GA-stuff.jar
--commons-*.jar
--richfaces.3.3.3.Final-api.jar
-jboss-seam.2.2.2.Final.jar
-portlet.jar
-portlet.war
--WEB-INF
---lib
----portletbridge-api-2.2.0.FINAL.jar
----portletbridge-impl-2.2.0.FINAL.jar
----richfaces.3.3.3.Final-impl.jar
----richfaces.3.3.3.Final-ui.jar
----jsf-facelets.1.1.15.B1.jar
----jboss-seam-ui.2.2.2.Final

And here's my stacktrace:

You should follow http://community.jboss.org/blogs/marek-novotny/2011/07/29/seam-2-booking-example-on-jboss-as-7. This is mainly for seam 2, but as you are using exactly same Seam it should help you.

Actually I did.

My problem is that my application is a portal and when render a portlet I got the classcastexception. The other functionalities are working correctly (the ones that don't depend on the dashboard).
