Custom component not found by jsf (mojarra)

Coming from this link http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5446475&tstart=0
I have managed to get things together but for some reason, my app is not able to find the custom component at runtime. I have the component configured in my web.xml so that is not it. I am not sure if this has something to do with the fact that I am not able to see any JSF 2.0 annotations during runtime. I actually using spring for my component scan due some issues I had earlier on with JSF. At that time I was told that because I am using maven tomcat plugin for development, I might not be able to get that working. The explanation was that maven tomcat plugin uses tomcat 6.012 that does not support something, I cannot remember that makes JSF behave properly. Some advised me to use jetty but I have had a chance to try that. Has someone faced this kind of issues before? If so please let me know I am running out of time for this project. Thanks a million in advance.

While I can't say what effect Spring has on things as I don't use Spring, all you need are the annotations on the component, the entries in the -taglib.xml if you're using facelets, and an "empty" (root-element only) faces-config.xml set to version 2.0 in the jar if the component is jarred (as opposed to being part of the .war).
When you say JSF can't find your component, are you getting an error message? Does the tag just appear in the browser unprocessed?
Testing on GlassFish would be helpful (for me) as there are no known issues there in this area.

How do I automate a custom component not implementing UIComponent?

I have tried using Adobe's instructions for automating custom components by creating a delegate class to use as a mixin, but
1) the super() statement in the delegate of the constructor is not recognized by the compiler,
2) I am not able to use a DisplayObject as an argument to init(),
3) I am not able to return the custom component as a IAutomationObject from the parent component's getAutomationChildAt method.
Is it simply not possible to automate a custom component not implementing UIComponent?

If you look in the library panel, there should be an entry for your custom component - probably something like CustomComponent1.mxml. Drag this out onto the artboard to create a new instance of the component.
In the case of a custom component, you can't change much on the second instance. If you have something like a text input skin though, you can change the text it is displaying for each instance.
We are working on making this sort of thing easier in the future, so stay tuned

AddOnRegDataGen - Component not found error

With version 2004 the AddOnRegDataGen worked fine. But now I upgraded to 2005A and when I try to run the AddOnRegDataGen I'm getting an component not found error message, saying that the file 'xerces-c_2_4_0.dll' could not be found. I also reinstalled the SBO SDK, but still the same error.
And I'm getting the same error when I try to use the 'B1 AddOnInstaller Setup .NET Wizard' from the SBO development tools.
How can I fix that problem?

Hi Nico,
When I create installation I also met lots of problems and I am using SBO 2005, my experience to workaroud the problem of object can not found, is to uninstall all SBO application, include server,client and SDK all companents, then install all of them in the default given install folder, this problem may disappear.
Best regards.

Hi
Please go through the related pointers ->
The OSS note 672960 has already indicated you need to use BADI to address it.
For Search criteria
You can also use user-defined fields as search criteria. To do this, you have to set fields XINPUT and XDISPLAY to 'X' in table ET_FIELDS for the fields you want to use in BADI BBP_CUF_BADI_2 in method MODIFY_SCREEN. The fields defined this way are displayed if you choose the 'Extended search' link.

Dump: Component not found

Hello all,
I have a strange error in my Web Dynpro application. It dumps with the message "Component ID_00010003000700080011 not found". I can reproduce this error, but I don't know why it happens, because it dumps only on test machine, not on development machine. I thought it's a missing transport request, but I have released all requests to test machine.
Dump anlaysis (ST22) is not very helpflull, it says the error is "CX_WDR_RT_EXCEPTION", not very much else. I searched in SAP notes, but no luck either.
Has anybody an idea, how such an error with component IDs can happen?
Best regards and TIA, Matthias

Hi Volker,
I solved the problem with lots of debugging. At the end it seemed that the problem was in a RFC-function by another project, they solved this error. So it was no ABAP or WD4A problem, as I thought at the beginning.

My custom component not clickable

Hi,
I'm creating custom component and when I add it to page I can't click it. When I add it to the bottom of page, the parsys overlaps this component and when I add component behind my custom component, it overlaps it too which means I can't edit/delete my cust. component.

Button in custom component not showing

I made a very simple custom component with a TextField and Button but when I add multiple instances of it to a Layout, only the first Button shows up while the other show only when I focus the corresponding TextField. I'm quite new to fx and I'm not sure I did everything correctly but I don't see any obvious error in my code.
The component:
public class TestComponent extends BorderPane {
    @FXML
    private Button browseButton;
    @FXML
    private TextField textField;
    public TestComponent() {
        FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("TestComponent.fxml"));
        fxmlLoader.setRoot(this);
        fxmlLoader.setController(this);
        try {
            fxmlLoader.load();
        } catch (IOException exception) {
            throw new RuntimeException(exception);
The fxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import java.lang.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.HBox?>
<fx:root type="javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1"
    xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/2.2">
    <center>
        <TextField fx:id="textField" prefWidth="200.0" />
    </center>
    <right>
        <Button fx:id="browseButton" mnemonicParsing="false" maxHeight="-Infinity"
            minHeight="-Infinity" prefHeight="${textField.height}" text="Browse"
            textAlignment="CENTER" />
    </right>
</fx:root>
and the test code
@Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        VBox box = new VBox(5);
        box.setPadding(new Insets(5));
        TestComponent a = new TestComponent();
        TestComponent b = new TestComponent();
        TestComponent c = new TestComponent();
        box.getChildren().addAll(a, b, c);
        Scene scene = new Scene(box);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
I'm running on Ubuntu with jdk-8-ea-bin-b111-linux-i586-10_oct_2013. I tested with jdk 1.7.0_40 and the buttons don't show.
I'd include screenshots but the button to add images is disabled.
Thanks for the help

The issue is with the bind definition in the FXML, if you remove that definition, the buttons will display.
   prefHeight="${textField.height}"
I think the binding is working, but when there is some kind of error (bug) in the layout process such that the scene is not automatically laid out correctly when the binding occurs.
You can get exactly the same behaviour by removing the binding definition in FXML and placing it in code after the load.
            browseButton.prefHeightProperty().bind(textField.heightProperty());
When the scene is initially displayed, the height of all of the text fields is 0, as they have not been laid out yet, and the browser button prefHeight gets set to 0 through the binding.
That's OK and expected.
Then the scene is shown and a layout pass occurs, which sets the height of the text fields to 26 and the prefHeight of all of the browser buttons adjust correctly.
That's also OK and expected.
Next the height of one of the buttons is adjusted via a layout pass.
That's also OK and expected.
But the height of the other buttons is not adjusted to match their preferred height (probably because a layout pass is not run on them).
That is not OK and not expected (and I think a bug).
If you manually trigger a layout pass on one of the components which did not render completely, the button will be displayed - but that should not be necessary.
You can file a bug against the Runtime project at:

You will need to sign up at the link on the login page, but anybody can sign up and log a bug.

Scanjet G4050 Doesn't Scan - Software Component not found error message

Problem:
I have installed and un/installed the software for this Scanjet G4050. It aways completes the installation successful. All seems fine until I push the SCAN Buttion on the scanner. It launchs the software then abruptly displays an Error! window which says "A required software component was not found..." then says to reinstall the software. I unistall the software and reinstall with exact same results at least 4 times. I have downloaded the lastest software from the download HP web page with exact results. The error info listed is 8,[(8,0,0)].
The COPY button and software works. I can scan preview the same photo in the copy mode, crop it, etc. and print it, but the SCAN button always fails with the Error! message. I think I can throw this HP Scanjet G4050 scanner a good 25 feet. But before it gets launched.... hmmm... maybe Yardapult?
This is a Windows XP (SP3), Dell Precision 360 system.
9/16/14 After following the Waterboy71's suggestion to post this on the Commercial Forums with zero resulsts, I finally threw in the towel. (I need this scanner for work) Returned the Scanjet G4050. Bought and Epson V550. Scanned the very 1st time. Now I can get back to work. I should have pulled the plug sooner. There's just seems to be too many problems with the G4050. What has happened to HP?

Custom page not found

Is it possible to change the page not found error page? So if a user happens to try and modify the URL to go to a page that is not valid then rather than the usual, eg :
<i>
Contact your application administrator.
Error ERR-1016 Application "104" Page "4" not found (requested language="en-us")
OK
</i>
a custom page is shown.
Thanks

XML Component not found

Hi all,
>
I'm having a problem that is very strange. When I create a XML
Component with urls to both xml and xsl documents, and try to run it,
the browser says page not found.
I've made a few experiences and there are a few peculiar behaviers such
as if the xsl file only references 3 tags (titulo,autor,subtitulo) it
works fine:
<xsl:for-each select="CONTEUDO/NOTICIA">
<xsl:value-of select="TITULO"/>
> <xsl:value-of select="AUTOR"/>
> <xsl:value-of select="SUBTITULO"/><p/>
</xsl:for-each>
if I reference 4 tags the error apears.... (the xml file size is 104 k)
My platform is Windows 2000, my database is 8173 and 9ias 10222a.
Any ideas ???
Thanx in advance
Susana

Susanna,
Is this related to the XML provider configuration file? Or is this just an XML file you are trying to run in general? If this is just a general XML file, you may want to try posting your question to the 9iAS general form (Products > Application Server > General).

Custom component not working properly

Hi all - I am trying to create a custom component. I have followed the suggested MVC architecture, and created the following classes:
1. SuperLineModel (the MODEL)
2. SuperLine (the actual component,e.g. the CONTROLLER)
3. BasicSuperLineUI (the UI Delegate class, e.g. the VIEW)
4. SuperLineUI (an abstract type class for my UI Delegate)
I also have a fifth class that draws a frame and panel, and then adds the custom component to the panel. In the main method of this class, I
register the UI delegate like this:
UIManager.put(BasicSuperLineUI.UI_CLASS_ID, "com.volant.mapit.view.BasicSuperLineUI");Everything compiles without any problems, but the custom component is never painted for some reason. In fact, I added a print line to the UI delegates paint method just to see if it was ever called, and it wasn't. I know I'm missing something here, and it's probably something small. I'm hoping some of you Swing gurus can take a look at my code below and point out the problem for me.
I really appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks.
The classes are listed below:
// SuperLineModel

public SuperLineModel()
public SuperLineModel(double sourceXCoord, double sourceYCoord,
                       double targetXCoord, double targetYCoord)
    this.sourceXCoord = sourceXCoord;
    this.sourceYCoord = sourceYCoord;
    this.targetXCoord = targetXCoord;
    this.targetYCoord = targetYCoord;
public void setSourceXCoord(double x)
    this.sourceXCoord = x;
    return;

// This method is never called and I don't know why!!!
public void paint(Graphics g, JComponent c)
    super.paint(g, c);
    System.out.println("test2");
    g.fillRect(0, 0, 200, 400);

A quick glance at the code and it looks ok with the exception of the following which I don't understand what you're trying to do:
public void installUI(JComponent c) {
    SuperLine sl = (SuperLine)c;
public void uninstallUI(JComponent c) {
    SuperLine sl = (SuperLine)c;
}Here are my comments:
1) I expect Superline sl to be a global variable for use elsewhere in your program.
2) I have no idea what your uninstallUI does.
This is what I would do:
SuperLine sl;
public void installUI(JComponent c) {
    sl = (SuperLine)c;
public void uninstallUI(JComponent c) {
}Finally, I am assuming that the changelistener will trigger a repaint which in turn will call your paint method, right?
