In order to get the RichFaces Validator artifact org.richfaces.ui.validator:richfaces-ui-validator-ui (4.2.2 Final) in my build, I had to add https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases as repository in my POM.

I went that way after my build complained it couldn’t find that artifact and a search for ‘richfaces’ in Maven Central did not return the “complete set” of RichFaces artifacts.

Just curious if anyone knows how RichFaces artifacts are chosen for inclusion in Maven Central.

    Short answer: if you need this, you’re probably doing something wrong. Maven Central should have all the dependencies required to create an app with RichFaces.

    I was trying to add the ui-validator component separately (which is not deployed to Maven central) under the mistaken assumption that I needed it explicitly identified as a dependency. Including it caused me a considerable amount of pain (multiple csv.xml files in deployment).

    In the end, I realized that the ui-components dependency (which is installed on Maven Central) bundles up the validation dependency (and many others).

    In the end, I wasn’t getting the components I was looking for anyway. I thought I needed the rich:ajaxValidator, but that was only because I was attempting to use code from the 3.x RichFaces Showcase in a 4.x app (and that tag was removed in 4.x).
