JSP 2.0 tags with JSF

Question

Hi! I'm trying to mix jsf template with JSP 2.0 tag.
I almost did it, but still have some trouble.
MyForm.jspf:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="tmpl" tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags" %>
<tmpl:date bean="${MyForm}" property="date" />
date.tag
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ attribute name="bean" type="java.lang.Object" %>
<%@ attribute name="property" %>
<c:set var="form" value="${bean}" scope="session"/>
<c:set var="property" value="${property}" scope="session"/>
<f:subview id="time">
<h:inputText id="date" value="#{form[property]}">
<f:convertDateTime pattern="dd/MM/yyyy" />
</h:inputText>
because I have to use JSP EL (${MyForm}) to pass a parameter to the tag the managed bean is not initialized, submit fails for the first time, but works after the bean being initialized.
Again setting "property" to session scope otherwise it doesn't work, so I will have this during the session... I am lost in JSP EL/JSF EL context relation.
Does anyone use it???
Sincerely,
D.

Answer 1

I made a little improvement, but still have some questions...
MyForm.jspf:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="tmpl" tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags" %>
<tmpl:date bean="ResidentAttentionForm" property="date" />
date.tag:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/fmt" prefix="fmt" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ attribute name="bean" %>
<%@ attribute name="property" %>
<c:set var="bean" value="${bean}" scope="request"/>
<jsp:scriptlet>
javax.faces.context.FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().getVariableResolver().resolveVariable(javax.faces.context.FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(), (String)request.getAttribute("bean"));
</jsp:scriptlet>
<c:set var="form" value="${sessionScope[bean]}" scope="session"/>
<c:set var="property" value="${property}" scope="session"/>
<f:subview id="time">
<h:inputText id="date" value="#{form[property]}">
<f:convertDateTime pattern="dd/MM/yyyy" />
</h:inputText>
The problem here:
1. how can I access from JSF EL to the tag attribute without passing it to the request??? (I've seen the question in the forum, but not the answer...)
2. Is there a way to initialize a bean with dynamic name (<c: set var="${name}"?
3. When we will have jsf 1.2 done? ;-) I know they said "with J2EE5", but it also has been said "J2EE5 - summer 2005" and now everyone is talking about 2006 (?). Why can't they make jsr for jsp 2.1 and jsf 1.2 before J2EE5?.
Sincerely,
D.
