What is the best way/practice to develop and debug classes which need to be referenced in the face-config.xml? faces-config.xml? I've this problem with custom validators and a custom phase listener that should be implemented. My current approach is to close the Designer and start it again for every debug or development step, which makes development of custom validators and PhaseListeners a pain. Is there a better way to have access to debugging & development facilities?
