Full Changelog: 4.1.9-RELEASE...4.1.10-RELEASE

Notes for upgraders

Changed default behavior

• The redundant render-time Facelets re-apply is now skipped by default for safe static views (partial state saving, non-transient, no dynamic add/remove, no build-time-dynamic JSTL), the bulk of the render-phase speedup. This matches MyFaces, which already skips by default via its org.apache.myfaces.REFRESH_TRANSIENT_BUILD_ON_PSS=auto default. Restore the legacy always-re-apply with com.sun.faces.refreshTransientBuildOnPSS=true (#5815). Views with dynamic f:view/f:loadBundle inputs are re-applied automatically (#5816).

New / changed context parameters

• com.sun.faces.refreshTransientBuildOnPSS (boolean, default false) — set true to opt out of the re-apply skip above. Example: a custom or third-party Facelets tag handler that applies per-request state to the tree during the build (as f:view/f:loadBundle do) but does not mark the view build-time-dynamic — its updates would otherwise stay frozen at the initial-build values across postbacks. A view is marked build-time-dynamic automatically when it contains any of c:if, c:forEach, c:choose, c:set, c:catch, or a non-literal ui:include/ui:decorate/ui:composition; there is no portable/spec API to force it (Mojarra's internal hook is the protected TagHandlerImpl.markDynamicTransientBuild). If none of those apply, set this to true to restore the pre-4.1.10 unconditional re-apply.
• com.sun.faces.disableIdUniquenessCheck — now accepts true|false|auto (was boolean). auto skips the duplicate component-id check when ProjectStage=Production; default false still always checks. The nearest MyFaces counterpart is org.apache.myfaces.CHECK_ID_PRODUCTION_MODE (values true|auto|false, default auto), but its auto is narrower: in Production it still checks on the initial GET request and on postbacks that add components programmatically, skipping only the per-request walk on static postbacks — it does not disable the check outright the way Mojarra's auto does.

Other visible changes

• The faces.js resource URL now carries a v=<version> cache-busting parameter, and the running build is published to #{applicationScope['com.sun.faces.mojarraVersion']} (specversion / implversion) for EL/script use (#5737).
