Our custom tag, as implemented in the previous note , is broken when a template is used.

and a test page that uses it ( home.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Then request the page with URL: http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/home.jsf?name=Jack .
You'll find that our hello tag works inside ui:repeat but fails to get the value defined by ui:param ! What's the problem? Our hello tag implementation evaluated the EL with the wrong EL context!
This is the corrected implementation:
package com.example;
import java.io.IOExcep...

This is an example that uses tag handler, UI component and renderer together to support a custom taglib. The main purpose is to show how these components play together.
The tag renders

<ul class="css class" extra...

The improved custom taglib works with existing facelet ui taglibs. For example:
<ui:param name="theName" value="John"/> <my:hel... produces the expected output. However, a problem exists with the ui:repeat tag: <h3>With ui:repeat</h3> <ui:repeat var="theName... When tested with a URL like: http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/?name=Zack&name... the raw EL prints out the correct names, but my custom tag substitutes empty string for theName2 ! In theory, the response is rendered in the Render Response phase, way after the Apply Request Values phase, actual values should be available to EL. The answer to this anomaly turned out to be very deep ! Yes, right there in the code! I would consider this a bug in facelets implementation, but the JSF spec did not tell what the expected behavior should be. In my custom...

In the test for the simple taglib example , I used a literal string for the name attribute:
<my:hello name="Jack"/> What happens if the name attribute contains EL expresson? For example: <my:hello name="#{param['name']}"/> If EL works, the tag should take the value of the " name " request parameter and print it out. But the tag as implemented in the simple taglib example prints the literal string: Hello #{param['name']}! I am FaceletTag. In order to make a tag to recognize EL, we have to use TagAttribute.getValue(FaceletContext ctx) instead of TagAttribute.getValue() . The latter returns the literal value of the attribute. The HelloTagHandler should be changed to: package com.example; import java.io.IOExcep... Rebuild the taglib and test with a URL like this: http://localhost:8080/facelet-test/?name=Jack The tag will print:...

This is a step-by-step example to create a really simple facelet taglib (in JSF 2 with Maven). Create a simple Maven project with:
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.example -Dartif... Three files are created as a result: pom.xml src/main/java/com/example/App.java src/test/java/com/example/AppTest.java This project should be able to build with: mvn package Add facelet API dependencies to pom.xml : <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.... The compiler plugin section is optional. Remove src/main/java/com/example/App.java , create a new Java class as the facelet Tag Handler ( HelloTagHandler.java ): package com.example; import java.io.IOExcep... This tag handler simply prints a "Hello" message. Create facelet tag declaration file src/main/resources/META-INF/hello.taglib.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <facelet... Build the JAR with mvn clean package Optionally, install it to the local repository: mvn install To use the taglib, simply drop the...

Extra Note: : JDK7 added a method URLClassLoader.close() , so that a URLClassLoader can be discarded, and a new one created to load a new implementation.

Dynamic proxy can be used to eliminate the need to stub out unused interface methods. This is an example for a simple SAX content handler for XML parsing.
The org.xml.sax.ContentHandler interface requires 11 methods be implemented but we only need three:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Ar...
With a dynamic proxy, we don't need the empty blocks for the unused methods:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Ar...
Equivalently (with anonymous inner class):
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Ar...

This is an odd-ball content provider in that it doesn't provide database records, but provides a resource as a stream. It can be used to provide media files or XML resources. Start the project with:
