    Missing <rich:gmap> component in RichFaces 4.0 M5

    evarep

      Hi everyone!

       

      Is gmap component going to be removed in rich faces 4?

      I've been looking into the web over this and i cant find any information of what happened.

      Could u please confirm if theres is another way to use this in rich faces? Or is this just not implemented yet in 4?

       

      Thanks!

          Hi Eva,

          I'm sure that rich:gmap is not implemented in 4.0.0 M5 and it's not going to be implemented until 4.0.0 Final is released. The problem is that there are a lot of components like rich:gmap, rich:page, a4j:include etc. which are not implemented in 4.0.0 because RF team does not have enough to time take care of all the components from 3.3.3. Right now they need to implement all the essential components and make an enough stable release. After 4.0.0 is released all the components which are the part of 3.3.3 but not represented in 4.0.0 will be put into the roadmap. I suggest you to monitor the situation and ask a question about a schedule of rich:gmap  again after 4.0.0 is released.

          Regards,

          Ilya

            Minor clarification.. some components (and GMap one of them) not included not just because of timing issue but because it's required review and redesign from functional point of view. In 3.3.x that component just draw the map and all the other functionality was accessible only using client side component object. Now we want to provide new usefull tags and/or attributes in order to make work with the component more convinient. So it's not just pure migration.

            e.g.

            http://jira.jboss.org/browse/RF-4262

            http://jira.jboss.org/browse/RF-1581
