Based on a standard web-application framework, JavaServer Faces (JSF), this book provides a step-by-step practical approach to understand the basic controls of JSF and its real life applications. It includes examples to apply different techniques provided by JSF, such as tags, converters and validators in real life situations.

Master the Java EE 8 and JSF (JavaServer Faces) APIs and web framework with this practical, projects-driven guide to web development. This book combines theoretical background with a practical approach by building four real-world applications. By developing these JSF web applications, you'll take a tour through the other Java EE technologies such as JPA, CDI, Security, WebSockets, and more. In Practical JSF in Java EE 8, you will learn to use the JavaServer Faces web framework in Java EE 8 to easily construct a web-based user interface from a set of reusable components. Next, you add JSF event handling and then link to a database, persist data, and add security and the other bells and whistles that the Java EE 8 platform has to offer. After reading this book you will have a good foundation in Java-based web development and will have increased your proficiency in sophisticated Java EE 8 web development using the JSF framework. What You Will Learn Use the Java EE 8 and the JavaServer Faces APIs to build Java-based web applications through four practical real-world case studies Process user input with JSF and the expression language by building a calculator application Persist data using JSF templating and Java Persistence to manage an inventory of books Create and manage an alumni database using JSF, Ajax, web services and Java EE 8's security features. Who This Book Is For Those new to Java EE 8 and JSF. Some prior experience with Java is recommended.

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