Getting and Rendering Components

A Book Excerpt

Hans Bergsten considers a "JSP page with JSF action elements representing a combination of component types and renderer types. When the page is processed, the tag handlers create and configure the component objects. That’s all you really need to know to use JSF." In this chapter from Hans' book JavaServer Faces, he focuses on how JavaServer Faces components are created and rendered. He digs into the APIs to give you a thorough understanding of the actual process of creating components.
