Support for Visual Web JSF in NetBeans 6.8m2

[gregory widwidan]

I have been using NetBeans 6.5.1 and decided to test NetBeans 6.8m2. Visual Web JSF and Project Dynamic Faces
are not available in the Update Center. I understand in NetBeans 6.7, Woodstock version 4.2 is still available.
Is woodstock no longer included in the update center for NB 68 M2. I went thru the Stable and Beta Update
Center but it is not available.

Visual Web JSF in NetBeans is still the best in its class, even in its version 4.2 form. There appears to be no
alternative that is close enough. I don't understand that other 3rd party plugins are supported in the Stable
Update Center while the homegrown woodstock is not. This feature is a big differentiator for NetBeans (vs. Eclipse
and others). Many of us have made good use of this tool can not really find comparable substitutes, The IceFaces Visual Web
though good in some ways, has many bugs that we go back to Visual Web JSF in NetBeans 6.5/7 to avoid hassle.

Will visual web jsf be in 'any' update center?

Hey, that's true. I tried m1 and there it was, at the update center. But now that I read your post, I checked m2, and you're right. It's not there anymore. I hope it's just a temporary thing, and it will be back on the next releases, because even there's no more support for Woodstock, it's still the best (visual) JSF implementatio  I've found (and compatible with NB). I also noticed that Icefaces is gone too, so this is not a coincidence, right?
