From: Dominico Francisco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Question on ComponentRef To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, July 1, 2008, 5:27 PM I am in the process of migrating an ADF application to Trinidad. The application uses ADF Regions quite a lot because this has been a good way of re-using components across several pages. I saw the document on migrating ADF regions to Trinidad: http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/from_ADF_to_Trinidad#region and I followed the steps but this was problematic because of the use of jsp-include. The jsp-includes were preventing the dataTables from paginating, for some reason. also there's a lot more work involved because you need to create managed bean for each region. The working solution that I found is the use of Trinidad's componentRef and the region-metadata.xml, as suggested in this forum: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2153863 I found this componentRef approach to be a lot cleaner for re-using components and migrating ADF regions. But I read somewhere in the thread above that this might be desupported or dropped in the future. What's the verdict on this and what's the rational? I need to find out if i can rely on this approach for re-using components going forward. It works like a charm so far, but need to find out if there are any known issues with this approach. thanks.
