What's the difference between p:resetInput vs p:ajax resetValues=true?

Question

I have seen a lot of answers talking about the use of <p:resetInput> and <p:ajax resetValues="true"> works in the same way.

In this case Why does my form isn't reseting his styling after render? just the <p:ajax> component worked for me.

I have read this posts but they always are treated as the same:

• How can I apply p:resetInput or p:ajax resetValue =“true” for p:dataList?
• How can I populate a text field using PrimeFaces AJAX after
  validation errors occur?

I still can't understand the difference between this two if anyone have some documentation about it I would be really grateful.

Answer 1

p:resetInput was basically introduced in PrimeFaces-Extensions long time before resetValues on f:ajax/p:ajax existed. Also resetValues is only available for JSF 2.2+ users, while p:resetInput even works on JSF 2.0.
