Using Trinidad in JSF environment

Question

Hi all,

I'm facing an unpleasant issue with an JSF based application of mine. Right now i have several xhtml-Files which include / make use the following taglibs:

xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:t="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk"
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"

Now I want to include apache trinidad too because I need it's dialog functionality and so I added

xmlns:tr="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad"

to the namespaces, the jars and the trinidad-config.xml to the web-inf folder.

In order to see whether the lib is available I've inserted

 <tr:outputText value="someString"/>

into the relevant xhtml file. The actual issue is, that the outputText gets not rendered in the UI. No error message, nothing in the apache logs, it just does'nt render...

Does anyone's got an idea where to start resolving this?

EDIT:

2romaintaz: I have'nt touched the web.xml yet, might that be the problem source?

TIA

As explained here, you need to modify your configuration in order to enable Trinidad on your JSF application:

• web.xml must define filter and filter-mapping as well as servlet and servlet-mapping.
• faces-config.xml must define the render-kit.
