Icefaces migration from 1.8 to 4.2 - need info on components

Hi,

I am trying to migrate the Icefaces 1.8 to 4.2 and JSF 1.2 to 2.1. In my application I have used only Icefaces java components for the implementation. I dont have components in my xhtml.

I have found some of the replacements of the components (i.e. ice to ace) but for following components, I didn't found any solution. Can anyone please tell me where I can find some info on it.

com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.renderkit.FormRenderer
com.icesoft.faces.context.DOMContext
com.icesoft.faces.renderkit.dom_html_basic.DomBasicRenderer
HtmlCommandLink (com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlCommandLink)
HtmlGraphicImage (com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlGraphicImage)
HtmlOutputLabel (com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlOutputLabel)
HtmlOutputLink (com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlOutputLink)
HtmlOutputText(com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlOutputText)
HtmlPanelGrid (com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlPanelGrid)
HtmlPanelGroup (com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.HtmlPanelGroup)
MenuBar (com.icesoft.faces.component.menubar.MenuBar)
com.icesoft.faces.component.IceExtended
com.icesoft.faces.component.paneltabset.TabChangeEvent
com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.taglib.Util
com.icesoft.faces.context.effects.JavascriptContext (includeLib)
com.icesoft.faces.component.DisplayEvent
com.icesoft.faces.component.ext.RowSelectorEvent

I have marked some of the options as bold that has most impact on the application.

Currently I am referring following links :

http://www.icesoft.org/wiki/display/ICE/ICE+to+ACE+Component+Migration+Guide

http://www.icesoft.org/wiki/display/ICE/ICEfaces+3+to+4+Migration+Guide

http://www.icesoft.org/wiki/display/ICE/ICEfaces+1.x+Compatibility+Features+of+ICEfaces+3

I have also read the release notes of Icefaces from 1.8 to 4.2 but didn't found any related information.

A couple things to note....
1) ICEfaces 4 requires JSF 2.2
2) the compat (ice namespace components) are no longer available in ICEfaces 4. you must use the ace component library

Regarding JSF, I have replaced

Code:

<dependency>
  <groupId>javax.faces</groupId>
  <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
  <version>2.1</version>
 </dependency>

With :

Code:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
  <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
  <version>2.2.17</version>
 </dependency>

in my POM. But what about the ice to ace replacement. For example, in my existing implementation, I have used DomContext in renderer classes which is no longer available in ICEfaces 4.2. How can I resolve this? Similarly I am looking for the replacements of above mentioned components/event.

rishisinghal11, did you find a replacement for the DomContext ?
