Problem In JSF compilation

Question

Hi,
This is velrajan from MindTree consultiong Bangalore India.I am new to JSF.When i try to compile my ActionListerner file i got the following error.
MyActionListener.java:9: package javax.faces.tree does not exist
import javax.faces.tree.Tree;
^
MyActionListener.java:26: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method getComponentId ()
location: class javax.faces.component.UIComponent
+ component.getComponentId());
^
MyActionListener.java:28: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method getActionCommand ()
location: class javax.faces.event.ActionEvent
String actionCommand = event.getActionCommand();
^
MyActionListener.java:32: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class Tree
location: class ch02a.MyActionListener
Tree tree = facesContext.getTree();
^
MyActionListener.java:32: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method getTree ()
location: class javax.faces.context.FacesContext
Tree tree = facesContext.getTree();
^
MyActionListener.java:45: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method getComponentId ()
location: class javax.faces.component.UIComponent
System.out.println(component.getComponentId());
^
MyActionListener.java:46: incompatible types
found : java.util.List
required: java.util.Iterator
Iterator children = component.getChildren();
I have the following jar files in my JDK lib folder
commons-beanutils.jar
commons-collections.jar
commons-digester.jar
commons-logging.jar
jsf-api.jar
jsf-impl.jar
standard.jar
I hope i have missed out the jsf-ri.jar and jstl_el.jar.
I am not able to find out the jsf-ri.jar in my JSF download.Where can i get this?.
Please suggest me.
This is My Listener:
===============
package ch02a;
import java.util.Iterator;
import javax.faces.component.UIComponent;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.faces.event.ActionEvent;
import javax.faces.event.ActionListener;
import javax.faces.event.PhaseId;
import javax.faces.tree.Tree;
public class MyActionListener implements ActionListener {
public PhaseId getPhaseId() {
System.out.println("getPhaseId called");
return PhaseId.APPLY_REQUEST_VALUES;
public void processAction(ActionEvent event) {
System.out.println("processAction called");
// the component that triggered the action event
     System.out.println("Before GetComponent");
UIComponent component = event.getComponent();
     System.out.println("After GetComponent");
System.out.println(
"The id of the component that fired the action event: "
+ component.getComponentId());
// the action command
String actionCommand = event.getActionCommand();
System.out.println("Action command: " + actionCommand);
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Tree tree = facesContext.getTree();
UIComponent root = tree.getRoot();
System.out.println("----------- Component Tree -------------");
navigateComponentTree(root, 0);
System.out.println("----------------------------------------");
private void navigateComponentTree(
UIComponent component, int level) {
// indent
for (int i=0; i<level; i++)
System.out.print(" ");
// print component id
System.out.println(component.getComponentId());
Iterator children = component.getChildren();
// navigate children
while (children.hasNext()) {
UIComponent child = (UIComponent) children.next();
navigateComponentTree(child, level + 1);
Please guide me.
Thanks and Regards,
Velrajan T.

Answer 1

I'am having the same problem of compiling the MyActionListener class.
Not able to find the jsf-ri.jar in jwsdp-1.6 installation directory also.
Please let me know if any body knows from where to get this jar.
Thanks in Advance
