The options for Visual Web had been reorganized to the Basic | Miscellaneous | Visual Web section. It would be nice to have a components section with component specific properties like lifecycle which we default to true. <servlet> <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>javax.faces.LIFECYCLE_ID</param-name> <param-value>com.sun.faces.lifecycle.PARTIAL</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> If a user disables it, then we should remove the above from the web.xml.
What I understand from the description is that we would provide a way to toggle lifecycle.PARTIAL in Tools->Options. I do not think we would want to do this, though, because that would tie us to dynamic faces more than we have committed to at this point. Maybe jayashri can say. For now just marking future.
