How to change theme in ICEfaces 3

I am using Maven to download ICEfaces dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.icefaces</groupId>
    <artifactId>icefaces</artifactId>
    <version>3.3.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.icefaces</groupId>
    <artifactId>icefaces-compat</artifactId>
    <version>3.3.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.icefaces</groupId>
    <artifactId>icefaces-facelets</artifactId>
    <version>1.8.2</version>
</dependency>

I checked the Binaries and the Sources from the official ICEfaces website, both zip files does not contain the xmlhttp folder which contains the CSS files for the themes.

Adding the following in web.xml file doesn't change anything:

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.icefaces.ace.theme</param-name>
    <param-value>rime</param-value>
</context-param>
Solution

  • You can load the styling resources for each page in your application with regular <link> tags or the JSF <h:outputStylesheet> component .

    The styling resources (images and theme.css file) for the rime and sam themes could be found in icefaces/icefaces-ace-3.0.0.jar.zip.

    The directory of the rime theme is:

    META-INF/resources/icefaces.ace/themes/rime/
