The core classes for the JSF Toolkit Component Framework. Includes all framework base and utility classes as well as component kick-start/code-generation and registration tools. Also includes some classes for testing that are reused in other projects. They cannot be factored out into a separate project because they are referenced by the tests and they reference this code (circular dependence).

The newest version!

The JSF Toolkit is a full-cycle component creation, management, and delivery framework for JSF 1.2.  The JSF-Tk seeks to be a model for the implementation of components with the goals of interoperability and AJAX framework independence, while simultaneously integrating seamlessly and automatically with the developer's chosen framework and JSF implementation.  

We are also developing an AJAX component set based upon the [http://dojotoolkit.org/ Dojo Toolkit] and [http://script.aculo.us scriptaculous].
