[ BUILD # : 201306122301 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.7.0_21 ] When creating a new JSF Managed bean, the user is given the option of entering a "Bean Description". Unless the user has checked the box "Add data to configuration file", the Bean Description is not stored anywhere and is effectively ignored as this information is normally stored in the faces-config.xml file. No warning is given to the user that the Bean Description will be ignored and lost if this is the case. It would be very useful to show a warning at the bottom of the New JSF Managed Bean dialog stating this.
That's really good point. Thanks for reporting. Fixed in web-main #d0c36765d780.
