Harness the power of JavaServer Faces to create your ownserver-side user interfaces for the Web
This innovative book arms you with the tools to utilize JavaServerFaces (JSF), a new standard that will make building user interfacesfor J2EE(TM) applications a lot easier. The authors begin bypainting the architectural big picture-covering everything from thePatterns that are used in the implementation to the typical JSFRequest/Response lifecycle. Next, you'll learn how to use JSF inthe real world by uncovering the various pieces of the JSFcomponent model, such as UI components, events and validation. Theauthors then explain how to apply JSF, including how to integrateJSF user interfaces with the Business Tier and how to render yourown user interface components. By following this approach, you'llbe able to confidently create and validate your own customapplications that meet the needs of your company.
Whether working in J2EE or J2SE(TM), this book will show you howto:
* Use UI Components to build your user interface
* Ensure that the data you store meets the business rules for yourapplication
* Integrate JSF with JSPs through the custom Tag feature in JSPimplementations
* Build JSF applications that interact with either EJBs orPOJOs
* Validate a new component and queue events to invoke customapplication logic
* Move your application from Struts to JSF
