Unable to use myfaces without jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar

843844Apr 24 2007 — edited Jun 8 2007

I'm new to JSF and would like a few pointers to get started. After downloading the examples, I saw no reference to jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar in WEB-INF/lib, which is what the myfaces website tutorial suggests. However, I'm unable to use myfaces-api-1.1.5.jar and myfaces-impl-1.1.5.jar in my web application without jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar. I'm currently using Eclipse with Tomcat 5.5.x integrated into the development environment. When jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar are not in my WEB-INF/lib, starting Tomcat would get me this error:

With both of them in WEB-INF/lib, I don't get any problems. What do I need to do to make this work solely with myfaces libraries?
