ADF faces with shale tiger

[amjad Shahrour]

Hi there,

I am trying to utilize only shale-tiger with ADF faces.

I am interested only in using only the view controller services (callbacks).
i created a simple (adf) jsf page and used the @View @Preprocess @Init
@Prerender @Destroy on the page's backing bean. but nothing seems to take
effect (no callbacks are being called).


following is the web.xml file content

<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>

<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee";
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
