I am trying to Extend some of the primefaces components renderer class to make same changes i register new renderer in the faces config
<render-kit>
<renderer>
<component-family>org.primefaces.component</component-family>
<renderer-type>org.primefaces.component.CommanButton</renderer-type>
<renderer-class>ExtendedTags.myCommandButton</renderer-class>
</renderer>
</render-kit>
i can see that it calls the constructor of the renderer but not the other overridden functions encodeBegin encodeEnd etc. am i missing something? Is there any special addition for primefaces components? Here is my Renderer Class
public class myCommandButton extends CommandButtonRenderer{
public myCommandButton() {
System.out.println("button constructor");
}
@Override
public void encodeBegin(FacesContext context, UIComponent component) throws IOException {
System.out.println("button encode begin");
super.encodeBegin(context, component);
ResponseWriter writer = context.getResponseWriter();
writer.write("*");
}
}
