Description

Original issue came up in Quarkus conversation: https://github.com/quarkiverse/quarkus-primefaces/issues/75

User had this setting in web.xml and was wondering why he could not hot reload pages in DEV Mode

    <context-param>
        <param-name>jakarta.faces.FACELETS_REFRESH_PERIOD</param-name>
        <param-value>-1</param-value>
    </context-param> 

Question for the team based on what Mojarra is doing.

1. In PRODUCTION mode should we force it to -1 and ignore the user setting like Mojarra does?
2. If the value is not a positive number in DEV mode should we ignore it or log a warning?

 

Any other ideas?
