I agree with Jakob, nobody will know about a parameter like this (are they documented anywhere btw?). The effect (without setting it): for application developers JSF seems to be broken.

Hi,

Both suggestions for a name are reasonable, because they suggest different things!

What Leo suggested (STRICT_JSF_2_COMPATIBILITY), is the flag we (internally) have been discussing (and postponing) for a long time. This config parameter would enable us to include non-spec behavior in MyFaces core, which would make us fail the TCK, if we included it by default. However, by enabling it via config parameter only (STRICT_JSF_2_COMPATIBILITY=false), we would be able to fix obvious spec issues already in MyFaces core 2.0 (e.g. MYFACES-2552) and still passing the TCK. Thus we would not need to wait for the next spec release (which may not even contain the fix....), to fix critical issues.

What Mark and Bernd suggested is to include the fix for MYFACES-2552 and make a config parameter just for this behavior.

Actually, I think introducing yet another config parameter for (in this case) very specific behavior is not the best idea, b/c no-one outside of the MyFaces developers will use it. Introducing a more generic config param, which would allow us to fix a lot more issues which are just like this one, is IMO a far better idea.

Thus, my vote is +1 for STRICT_JSF_2_COMPATIBILITY and +0 for Bernd's suggestion.

Regards, Jakob

+1 in general, +1 to Bernd's suggestion.

I agree STRICT_JSF_2_COMPATIBILITY is too generic. I think the param should contain EL, TYPE, MAP, RESOLVER, NULL. And it should enabled by default.

Shouldnt the config contain the text EL_TYPE or so? We have far too many strict JSF spec flags already ;)

+1 for including the fix in 2.0.x and 2.1.x + adding org.apache.myfaces.STRICT_JSF_2_COMPATIBILITY

  Hi

  @Matt Benson: Could you attach at least the fragment with the solution   for MYFACES-2552 ? so I can check it, create a patch for myfaces and   write a page on:

  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MYFACES/Composite+Components

  with the explanation and the solution using a custom EL resolver. That   would be very helpful.

  regards,

  Leonardo Uribe

  2011/9/21 Leonardo Uribe<lu4@gmail.com>:

  Hi

  It should be a param starting with org.apache.myfaces, like   org.apache.myfaces.STRICT_JSF_2_COMPATIBILITY

  The important part is that by default it should be disabled, to   prevent receive over and over the same report.

  In theory, it is possible to write a custom EL resolver that check if   the base object implements   javax.faces.el.CompositeComponentExpressionHolder and if that so, do   the required stuff only on getType(). So, if somebody is writing a   composite component that relies on this behavior, it is possible to   write the fix in a portable way to both Mojarra and MyFaces (thanks to   CompositeComponentExpressionHolder).

  Note the change does not cause any side effects, because nobody relies   on the "wrong" behavior, and what

user wants is components

work as

  expected.

  regards,

  Leonardo Uribe

  2011/9/21 Mark

Struberg<stru@yahoo.de>:

  Not sure about that.   Does the param start with javax.faces? In

this case we should

rather use an own internal one.

  Btw, if it's not in the spec even

Mojarra would not be allowed

to use a proprietary parameter with

"javax...."

  However, let's simplify the

context parameter by giving it

a name

  relating to JSF 2.2 compatibility.  I submitted the final   implementation for Mojarra, so have

every right to add the same

to

  MyFaces.

    +1     And if we create a context

parameter, it should behave

by default as in

    the JSF 2.2 Spec.  If users

want strict spec

(2.0/2.1)behaviour they

  have to
