Hi Kito, by VC feature I meant essentially the prerender event for processing GET requests. I couldn't see such hook from Orchestra's overview. Does it have such a feature? Writing custom PhaseListeners kicking in logic based on URLs gets a bit old... :) Shale's declarative <s:subview id> is great and much cleaner. Anything else like that out there?

This is sad news! Can you please recommend alternative projects for migration of deployed View-Controller and Remote features? Thanks.

MyFaces Apache Orchestra has a view controller feature as well, and you with JSF 1.2 sometimes a PhaseListener associated with a particular view can yield similar results:

<f:view beforePhase="#{myBean.beforePhase}" afterPhase="#{myBean.afterPhase}"> ... </f:view>

The remoting features are a different story, though. JSF 2.0 has most of the Shale features (excluding the dialog framework and test framework). It handles most of the use cases Shale Remoting handles (i.e. resource mangement) but doesn't allow you to call arbitrary methods in the same manner.

This is a heads up for the Shale user community that the Shale PMC has voted to move the project to the Attic. This means that the Shale developers (more formally its Project Management Committee) have voted to retire Shale and move the responsibility for its oversight over to the Attic project.

The MyFaces community has expressed interest in continuing development of the Shale-Test module and the Shale PMC will work with MyFaces to migrate this piece of the codebase.. Look for further announcements to that regard in the near future.

You can read more about the Apache Attic at http://attic.apache.org.

You can follow the progress of the move at

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATTIC-2 if you so wish.

On behalf of the Apache Shale PMC, Thanks!
