ICEfaces on GlassFish v2
A good way to try out ICEfaces with JSF 1.2 is to use GlassFish.
You will need a recent copy of ICEfaces (at the moment, a subversion checkout, but shortly ICEfaces 1.6) and fewer libraries in your .war file. In particular, do not include the following .jar files, as the latest classes are provided by the Java EE libraries included with GlassFish:
el-ri.jar
el-api.jar
jsf-api.jar
jsf-impl.jar
myfaces-api.jar
myfaces-impl.jar
You should have success with both JSP and Facelets based ICEfaces applications.
The next step for ICEfaces (in terms of GlassFish integration) is to make use of the asynchronous features of Grizzly as we've had for some time with Jetty continuations and have recently introduced in prototype form for Tomcat 6.
