I need to make a file upload function in JSF 2 so I was searching about it and found it is possible to do with Tomahawk, which I think is not very stable with JSF 2.
I'm using RichFaces, so I look for it and found this which I think more simple, but I'm using richfaces 4.
So I wonder if there's a way to do this with richfaces 4 or do this with JSF 2 only.
Any idea, suggestion ?
You're looking at RichFaces 3.3.x demo site. You need to look at RichFaces 4.x demo site. The <rich:fileUpload> demo page contains a concrete example with source code.
To do it with pure JSF2, you'd need to create a custom component and parse the multipart/form-data requests yourself. There's a blog about this with complete and concrete examples: Uploading files with JSF 2.0 and Servlet 3.0.
Using Tomahawk is only more easy. I'm not sure why you think that it's not very stable.

I have a web application with the following:
JSF 2.2.6
Java 1.7
Tomcat 8
Richfaces 4.5.7
Omnifaces 2.2
I would like to enhance the look and feel of the web app to use Bootsfaces. I have added Bootsfaces jar to my project (via .ivy) and rebuilt.
Before even updating the first web page to use Bootsfaces in the project I wanted to see if there were any conflicts after adding the Bootsfaces jar. It seems there is. I am getting the following errors shown in Firebug:
ReferenceError: jsf is not defined
TypeError: RichFaces.ui is undefined
Does anyone know whether Bootsfaces works with Richfaces and if so could they kindly provide a link with migration steps to follow?
Currently, we, the BootsFaces team, do not support RichFaces. We strive for compatibility with PrimeFaces, OmniFaces, AngularFaces and - if possible - ButterFaces. Neither RichFaces nor ICEFaces are on our list.
However, if someone were to join our team in order to support RichFaces, they'd certainly be welcome!
Who knows how to create a custom component in an old version of IceFaces 1.6.2? I didn't find anything in the web about that, just some materials about custom components for JSF 1.1. Please, show me simple "Hello World" custom component with file name and directory declaration.
Please look at http://www.exadel.com/tutorial/jsf/jsftutorial-customcomponents.html
JSF Tutorial. You do not need special example for IceFaces 1.6.2, you can use IceFaces component within you own jsf component.
Related to the last comment on this question, i would like to know if anyone managed to use the HTML5-Fileupload of Primefaces 3.0 with an older Primefaces version.
We have a lot of trouble with the old flash-version of the fileupload.
I know that the best option would be to update the whole project to the new primefaces version but it´s not possible for this project.
This is not going to be trivial. That you're already asking this question already indicates that it's going to be a long journey. I'd rather use a barebones and to-the-point file upload component of another component library such as Tomahawk's <t:inputFileUpload>. It only doesn't support asynchronous uploading and you need to make the submit button of the form a non-ajax one, but it does the job you want it to do without much hassle.
You can find in this answer detailed step-by-step instructions how to integrate and use it in your project: JSF 2.0 File upload. In case of PrimeFaces, you only need to make sure that you have removed PrimeFaces' own file upload filter from the web.xml, otherwise it would consume the uploaded file before Tomahawk's own filter get the chance.
Thats very difficult, I have many problems with fileupload and finally migate to 3.0 but witch are problems?.
If you wanna to change fileupload you will can change source code in library is not very smarted if you desnt know jquery ui o you can use other framework or use directly.

good luck
I want to use reCaptcha on my project with JSF. Corresponding primefaces component doesn't want to work properly inside wizard component. I decided to try to use the code from example for JSP http://code.google.com/intl/en-en/apis/recaptcha/docs/java.html I can not understand how best to remake it to JSF. The problem is in java code injection into JSP and result validation via FacesValidator.
Can someone have any ideas?
Take a look at tomahawk t:captcha on MyFaces SVN. The code only use the standard JSF API (it was updated to use JSF 2.0 ResourceHandler API), so it can help you to build your own using recaptcha.
I have been looking for a JSF extension (Richfaces, IceFaces, and more) but all seem to be according to JSF1.x and ones for JSF2.0 are still alpha or in development and most of the documentation assumes you're using JSF1.2.
Is there any production well known extension available?
RichFaces 3.3.3 is compatible with JSF 2.0. It has however no full JSF 2.0 integration yet.
PrimeFaces 2.0 is already JSF 2.0 ready for months, it was the first to do so.
My opinion would be biased if I say PrimeFaces I guess :) So for real life experiences please see: http://www.primefaces.org/whyprimefaces.html
