Managing JavaServer Faces implementations using wsadmin scripting
JavaServer Faces (JSF) is a user interface framework or application programming interface (API) that eases the development of Java based web applications. The product supports JSF at a runtime level, which reduces the size of web applications because runtime binaries do not need to be included in your web application. Use the wsadmin tool to set the JSF implementation as the Sun Reference 1.2 implementation or the Apache MyFaces 2.0 project.
About this task
The JSF runtime:
- Makes it easy to construct a user interface from a set of reusable user interface components.
- Simplifies migration of application data to and from the user interface.
- Helps manage user interface state across server requests.
- Provides a simple model for wiring client-generated events to server-side application code.
- Supports custom user interface components to be easily build and reused.
