PrimeFaces 3.4 Released

I am pleased to announce the final release of PrimeFaces 3.4. Over the previous RC1 release, there are 11 logged improvements. For the detailed list of changes from 3.3 to 3.4, please see 3.4.RC1 announcement.

Download

Binaries, sources and bundle containing api-vdl docs are available at downloads page. Maven users just need to update their version to 3.4.

Documentation

PrimeFaces User’s Guide has been updated to cover 3.4 and reached 496 pages. Guide is available for download at documentation page. There will also be a paid version of this guide soon. Paid version will be offered to PrimeFaces users who would like to contribute 10 euros to PrimeFaces Project. Content will be absolutely same(all 496 pages) and only small difference would be the availability of an index for the pdf readers. Everything else would be same. We’ve cancelled the community funding model as it didn’t work as we wanted so introduced this optional model for people who want to contribute instead.

Migration

It is highly suggested to go through the migration guide for any change that may effect your application before migration.

Roadmap

Our focus on September is now on PrimeFaces Mobile 1.0 Release that will bring various improvements and features. After mobile, we’ll start working on PrimeFaces for ASP.NET Web Forms and plan to bring at least 30 controls for the initial release. Until the end of the year, there will be one more major PrimeFaces Release and version number would be 3.5. This iteration will focus on requests from PrimeFaces PRO users, some most voted requests from PrimeFaces Community and maintenance.
