Creating the ICEfaces Direct-to-DOM Enabled TabbedPane Renderer

Creating the ICEfaces Direct-to-DOM Enabled TabbedPane Renderer

This section will step you through the code modifications that were required to Direct-to-DOM enable the MyFaces TabbedPane renderer shown in Figure 1-2 into the Direct-to-DOM enabled renderer shown in Figure 1-3. By following the steps in this tutorial, you will build the ICEfaces application from source code and deploy it to your local Tomcat server.

For a full version of the source code used in this tutorial, see the TabbedPaneRenderer source file included with the tabbedpane-icefaces sample application. The original MyFaces

HtmlTabbedPaneRenderer source is included with the tabbedpane-myfaces sample application. (HtmlTabbedPaneRenderer.java). Refer to Figure 1-1 for the location of the source files.

Getting Started:

The package statement in the Direct-to-DOM enabled renderer has been changed.
// packaged in the icefaces tutorial package
 
package com.icesoft.tutorial;
 
The following imports are required for the Direct-to-DOM enabled renderer:
// myfaces
 
import org.apache.myfaces.renderkit.RendererUtils;
 
import org.apache.myfaces.renderkit.html.HTML;
 
import org.apache.myfaces.component.UserRoleUtils;
 
import org.apache.myfaces.custom.tabbedpane.* ;
 

 
//W3C DOM
 
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
 
import org.w3c.dom.Text;
 

 
//icefaces
 
import com.icesoft.faces.context.DOMContext;
 
import com.icesoft.faces.context.DOMResponseWriter;
 
import com.icesoft.faces.renderkit.dom_html_basic.DomBasicRenderer;
 
import com.icesoft.faces.renderkit.dom_html_basic.PassThruAttributeRenderer;
 

 
//JSF import javax.faces.component.UIComponent;
 
import javax.faces.component.UIForm;

The Direct-to-DOM enabled TabbedPaneRenderer extends the ICEfaces DOMBasicRenderer.
