Jakarta Server Faces 3.0 Facelet Tag Libraries that wish to conform to this schema must declare it in the following manner.

<facelet-taglib xmlns="https://jakarta.ee/xml/ns/jakartaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="https://jakarta.ee/xml/ns/jakartaee https://jakarta.ee/xml/ns/jakartaee/web-facelettaglibary_3_0.xsd" version="3.0"> ... </facelet-taglib>

The instance documents may indicate the published version of the schema using xsi:schemaLocation attribute for jakartaee namespace with the following location:

https://jakarta.ee/xml/ns/jakartaee/web-facelettaglibary_3_0.xsd

]]> tag-names must be unique within a document.

]]> Behavior IDs must be unique within a document.

]]> Converter IDs must be unique within a document.

]]> Validator IDs must be unique within a document.

]]> The top level XML element in a facelet tag library XML file.

]]> An advisory short name for usages of tags from this tag library.

]]> Extension element for facelet-taglib. It may contain implementation specific content.

]]> If the tag library XML file contains individual tag declarations rather than pointing to a library-class or a declaring a composite-library name, the individual tags are enclosed in tag elements.

]]>

The attribute element defines an attribute for the nesting tag. The attribute element may have several subelements defining:

description: a description of the attribute
name: the name of the attribute
required: whether the attribute is required or optional
type: the type of the attribute

]]> Defines if the nesting attribute is required or optional.

If not present then the default is "false", i.e the attribute is optional.

]]> Defines the Java type of the attributes value. If this element is omitted, the expected type is assumed to be "java.lang.Object".

]]> Defines the method signature for a MethodExpression- enabled attribute. The syntax of the method-signature element is as follows (taken from the function-signature EBNF in web-jsptaglibrary_2_1.xsd):


              
              MethodSignature ::= ReturnType S MethodName S? '(' S? Parameters? S? ')'
              
              ReturnType        ::= Type
              
              MethodName        ::= Identifier
              
              Parameters        ::= Parameter | ( Parameter S? ',' S? Parameters )
              
              Parameter         ::= Type

Where:

Type is a basic type or a fully qualified Java class name (including package name), as per the 'Type' production in the Java Language Specification, Second Edition, Chapter 18.
Identifier is a Java identifier, as per the 'Identifier' production in the Java Language Specification, Second Edition, Chapter 18.

Example:

java.lang.String nickName( java.lang.String, int )

]]> Extension element for tag It may contain implementation specific content.

]]> If the tag library XML file contains individual function declarations rather than pointing to a library-class or a declaring a composite-library name, the individual functions are enclosed in function elements.

]]> Within a tag element, the behavior element encapsulates information specific to a Faces Behavior.

]]> Extension element for behavior. It may contain implementation specific content.

]]> Within a tag element, the component element encapsulates information specific to a Faces UIComponent.

As of 3.0 of the specification, this requirement is no longer present: This element must have exactly one of <component-type>, <resource-id>, or <handler-class> among its child elements.

]]> A valid resource identifier as specified in the spec prose document section 2.6.1.3. For example:

<resource-id>myCC/ccName.xhtml</resource-id>

]]> Extension element for component It may contain implementation specific content.

]]> Within a tag element, the converter element encapsulates information specific to a Faces Converter.

]]> Extension element for converter It may contain implementation specific content.

]]> Within a tag element, the validator element encapsulates information specific to a Faces Validator.

]]> Extension element for validator It may contain implementation specific content.

]]> This type contains the recognized versions of facelet-taglib supported.

]]>

Defines the canonical name of a tag or attribute being defined.

The name must conform to the lexical rules for an NCName
