"Sun moving away from SOAP to embrace REST" is the misleading title
of an article recently published in SD
Times. The article provides a good introduction to JAX-RS and
Jersey. But I really wonder what motivated the author of this
article to use this title. This blog, hopefully, provides a better
context.
Jersey is
the Reference Implementation of Java API for RESTful Web Services
(JAX-RS, JSR...
This is a follow up to TOTD
#48 which showed how to convert a JSF 1.2 application to use
new features of JSF 2.0. In this blog, we'll talk about a new
annotation added to the JSF 2.0 specification - @ManagedBean.
@ManagedBean is a new annotation in the JSF 2.0 specification. The
javadocs (bundled with the nightly)
clearly defines the purpose of this annotation:
The presence of this
annotation...

Server. It also highlights the multi-lingual capabilities of...
TOTD
#47 showed how to deploy a JSF 1.2 application (using
Facelets and Ajax/JSF Extensions) on Mojarra
2.0-enabled GlassFish.
In this blog we'll use new features added in JSF 2.0 to
simplify our
application:
Use integrated
Facelets and resource
re-location to simplify our facelets
Replace JSF Extensions Ajax API with new in-built
JavaScript APIs to expose Ajax functionality.
Let's...
Java Server Faces 2.0 specification

- Sun's implementation of JSF.
GlassFish v2 comes bundled with Mojarra 1.2_04 which allows you to
deploy a JSF 1.2 application. This blog explains how you can update
GlassFish v2 to use Mojarra 2.0 nightly. And then it deploys a simple
JSF 1.2-...
