ICEsoft.org Forums: ICEfaces, ICEmobile, ICEpdf

Just want to get a handle on the timeframe for an ICEfaces 2.0 plugin for NB 6.9.

I need to ask this because I am being forced away from JSF1.2 into JSF2.0 and facelets.
I know I could use the Current ICEfaces beta 2.0 on NB 6.8, but I ran into an issue with composite components in NB6.8 that is supposedly fixed in NB 6.9.

Just trying to wrap my head around a new technology for me.

The obvious next question is are there plans in the works for visual editing for ICEfaces 2.0 in the NB environment?

I really depended on visual editing for a lot of very complex pages that would have been quite a bit more tedious to create without the visual feedback.

Thanks.

There will be no JSF visual editing in NB 6.9.

NB 6.9 support will be available after NB6.9 release, which will be most likely shipped with ICEfaces 2 Alpha 3. NB 6.9 support will include fixes and enhancement as well.

As for "an issue with composite components in NB6.8" I am not sure which one you are referring to. If it is about tag/attribute auto-completion in jspx editor, unfortunately you need to switch to xhtml editor.

Is there any other tool for visual editing?
This is my first attempt for a web application, I am trying to develop a portet and I hate to go back to manual editing of files.
After using Netbeans Swing editor for several years, I can't imagine there are people developing GUI manually.

Yes. Eclipse with WTP and MyEclipse have visual jsf page editor, which provides basic visual editing capability and has ICEfaces support. We also provide basic visual editing support on RAD.

Hello all.
Excuse me, if I try to download plug-in for NetBeans 6.9 (ICEfaces-2.0.0.Alpha3-Netbeans-6.9-modules.zip) - I get ICEfaces-2.0.0-Alpha3-Eclipse-3.6.0-plugins.zip instead of it.
Guys, could you please fix it?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Sorry about that, should be corrected now!
