Liferay 6.2 with Primefaces 5.1

Can someone explain what I need to do in order to update the Primefaces 3.5 version that comes with Liferay 6.2 to Primefaces 5.1.

Thanks

Hi Bill,

If your PrimeFaces portlets were developed using the Liferay Plugins SDK, then you can simply change the version of PrimeFaces to 5.1 in the ivy.xml descriptor of each portlet WAR project. If it was developed with Maven, then you can change the version in the pom.xml descriptor. Also, the portlet WARs would need to be rebuilt and redeployed. Before re-deploying, I recommend shutting down the app server and deleting the old deployment. That will ensure that you don't get two copies of primefaces.jar in the deployment.

I also wanted to mention that we released a group of patches for Liferay Faces GA5, a few of which pertain to supporting PrimeFaces 5.x.

Kind Regards,

Neil

I was actually out of Liferay development all last year, but now I'm back and happy to be!

Hi Neil,
I'm trying to achieve the same thing as the OP.

If I go ahead and change the ivy.xml from

<dependency name="org.primefaces.primefaces" org="com.liferay" rev="3.5" />

into

<dependency name="org.primefaces.primefaces" org="com.liferay" rev="5.1" />

I get errors at build, as the library is not found:

What am I doing wrong here?...

Thanks,

Good information on how to use Ivy are here: http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/tutorial/start.html
Primefaces 5.2 can be found at this link in Maven repository: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.primefaces/primefaces/5.2
In this case the needed code (Mihai already solved; we are colleagues) is this: <dependency name="primefaces" org="org.primefaces" rev="5.2" />
