I'm trying to make a sample project using spring mvc, webflow and primefaces. Here is my deployment descriptor (web.xml):

The question I have - is it right to make such mappings:
<mvc:resources location="/, classpath:/META-INF/resources/primefaces/, classpath:/META-INF/resources/primefaces-aristo/" mapping="/javax.faces.resource/**"/>
in the MVC servlet context or I'm doing something wrong? In the examples from the book "Pro SPRING 3" there's no such mapping, but if I remove it, I will receive an errors like no mapping found for ".../javax.faces.resource/theme.css" in DispatcherServlet and so on. I think my way to add mappings is wrong because I don't see images from primefaces-aristo/images anyway.
Versions of libraries are: Spring faces and webflow: 2.3.0.RELEASE Spring webmvc: 3.2.3.RELEASE Primefaces: 4.0 jsf-api and jsf-impl: 2.0.11
Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: I found an answer myself. The way I used is wrong, tag mvc:resources is used for local resources mapping and to map JSF resources one needs to add
<faces:resources/>
into mvc servlet context.
