Description

With OmniFace 3.2 you get an error message in a facelet
No library found for namespace http://omnifaces.org/ui

With NetBeans 8.2 en 9.0 you can only have the 8.2 JEE plugins.
You can actually make JSF2.3 work but adding OmniFaces to a facelet then renders the error.

I managed to get rid of the error by unpacking the omnifaces-3.2.jar to a directory and add that directory to the libraries of the project and remove the omnifaces-3.2.jar from the libraries.
After that I changed the XML tag facelet-taglib to a signature as used in mojarra_ext.taglib.xml of javax.faces-2.3.7.jar the error is going away from the facelet.
I saw a closed issue about a namespace not found in NetBeans 8.2 and I have the same problem.

I think the NetBeans webproject is not able to see the new signature of the omnifaces-ui.taglib.xml version 2.3.
The NetBeans IDE is making a transition to Apache and until Feb. 2019 there will not any renewal on the Jakarta EE plugins for NetBeans supporting JSF 2.3

So what I did was to uncheck the package checkbox of the changed directory in the library settings and in the web build/packaging to add the omnifaces-3.2.jar.
Actually I think it is a NetBeans problem but until feb. 2019 no updates on Jakarta EE to expect from there.
