Java Server Faces

I don't know if this is the correct User Group.

Has anyone done any development with Java Server Faces to create richer UI
experiences? Is it any good?

TIA

Try the Apache MyFaces user list - MyFaces is an implementation of the JSF 
specification and there's an active community developing and using it:

Where I work we've been using JSF for a large project and it has been 
working well. Although, it can be a bit heavy on the session usage.


The official Sun group can be found here.

http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=427

Most of the reference implementation developers answer questions there 
and are usually very quick. Plus they will try their best to answer 
questions on all implementations.

Tomcat in JBoss 4.0.3RC1 and Sun's Java Server Faces

2005-06-30 Thread Geoffrey

Our application uses Sun's JSF implementation.
On JBoss 4.0.2 it deploys fine, but on JBoss 4.0.3RC1 it throws a
ClassCastException:
at
com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener.configure(ConfigureListener.java:711) 


...
at
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.listenerStart(StandardContext.java:3669) 


...

I tried not bundling the Sun faces api in the war and it deploys but it
gives problems:
- Sun's JSF doesn't work properly any more
- The war also needs to be able to deploy on JBoss 4.0.2, Resin etc
which don't have a version the faces api.


Deleting the myfaces faces api from Tomcat isn't really a good solution
either as other applications deployed on the same production instance
might depend on it and it complicated the deployment procedure.


Any other solutions?


Thanks for any and all help,
Geoffrey

2004-08-18 Thread Hiroshi Iwatani
Sorry for being late for replying.
Parts of our project which use JSF use only its safa and proven
features like value-binding and method-binding for components.
We don't think we need customize renderers, components, and/or
view technology for our simple and mundane app structure.
JSF is quite convenient for not-so-advanced project like ours.

Thank you for the reply.  I happened to read that article too.  I also 
have the book the guy wrote.  I'll look into the rendering part using 
XML.  It would be better if it's supported out of the box though.  
Hopefully the next version will address this.  I did write a simple 
struts app before, and JSP seems to be better architecturally, and 
simpler to use though.  The problem I have with it is that you can not 
programmatically display the view easily.  What I mean is that in the 
JSP page, there is not much way to put your code there.  For example, 
one of my requirement is that depending on a situation, 1 or more tables 
must be shown.  You can see from the article that mixing tag lib and JSF 
is prohibited in a loop.  Also, in a purist sense, data preparation for 
the display should also stay in the JSP file, not the back bean.  This 
means it has to support programming in there.  I can just create another 
class/bean to do this, but it becomes so many files just do something, 
and isn't JSP supposed to be the view part?  I think it's perfectly ok 
to put any type of java programming in the view as long as that code 
only is used for the view, not application logic.  Anyway, I will 
investigate if I can some how satisfy all my requirements with this 
technology.  I was very commited to JSF, until I read the first link you 
sent me.  The fact that it's very recent (august 10) causes me unease 
with this technology.  Since it seems that you did implemented a full 
app successfully, if you don't mind, could you share your experience and 
how did your project go?  Thanks.

java server mode vs. client mode

2004-06-16 Thread Matt Bathje
I posted this on the struts list this morning, but it might get better
answers here.

I was reading the stories here:

http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=45250
http://www.kano.net/javabench/

Summary:
Java in server mode is faster than C++ in the benchmarks run. Java in client
mode is much more iffy, sometimes faster, sometimes slower, and sometimes
the same.


So my question becomes - does anybody have any experience running their
Tomcat jvm using the -server option instead of letting it default to client?

Based on what the tester says, the only downside of running the jvm in
server mode is a longer startup time, but the Java code still beat C++ even
with the longer times, so it can't be too bad.

So anybody have any experience/thoughts on this?


Thanks,
Matt Bathje

comparing client to server in my article on the resources page of tomcat.
 
if you want hard numbers, I would suggest look at the article, or run some stress

benefit/non-benefit of running in -server mode.
 
i hope that helps

Matt,

No one can really believe Java is faster than C or C++, because Java is
itself written in C and C++.

I haven't been through the benchmark code throroughly, but there's
definitely a bias somewhere.

ahh gotta love benchmarks. the only valid benchmark is your own application, which 
you've tuned.
 
all other cases are seriously error proned or not applicable to real applications.

2004-06-16 Thread Elijah Epifanov
At first:
If I'ld write a C++ compiler with Perl, this doesn't mean
that it will generate code slower than Perl scripts:)
Then:
Exhaustive optimization techniques (like loop expansion,
disabling array bounds checking, etc.) really make your
code faster in ANY case, BUT small amount of generated
code may fit your processors cache, some jump may be
converted to short jumps, etc.. So, generally speaking,
more optimized code shall run faster, but it's bigger.
Huge amount of code may even seriously decrease
amount of free RAM, so more swapping will occur.
AND ... if you do really meaninglessthings in your code, then
there's a chance that optimizer will not eliminate
this code, because it cannot generate OPTIMAL code.
This is, mathematically speaking, twice a NP-hard problem.
First when generating code, second when testing it's speed.
I recommed using -server hotspot. Look at name...
S E R V E R. I'm not sure guys from Sun randomly named it
this way :)

 I posted this on the struts list this morning, but it might get better
 answers here.

 I was reading the stories here:

 http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=45250
 http://www.kano.net/javabench/

 Summary:
 Java in server mode is faster than C++ in the benchmarks run. Java in
client
 mode is much more iffy, sometimes faster, sometimes slower, and sometimes
 the same.


 So my question becomes - does anybody have any experience running their
 Tomcat jvm using the -server option instead of letting it default to
client?

 Based on what the tester says, the only downside of running the jvm in
 server mode is a longer startup time, but the Java code still beat C++
even
 with the longer times, so it can't be too bad.

 So anybody have any experience/thoughts on this?


 Thanks,
 Matt Bathje


Matt,

No one can really believe Java is faster than C or C++, because Java is
itself written in C and C++.

I haven't been through the benchmark code throroughly, but there's
definitely a bias somewhere.

apache-tomcat configuration for java server pages

2002-11-21 Thread kala sunil
hi

we are in a project that which is a e-mail reader which involves jsp,
voicexml.the problem has arised with the part of trying to configure
apache-tomcat for java server pages.

please look into the folowing:
WEB.XML FILE

servlet
   servlet-nameWebAppRegistrant/servlet-name
   servlet-classorg.machino.gardenpath.WebAppRegistrant/servlet-class
   init-param
 param-namegardenpath.registry.url/param-name
 param-valuehttp://localhost:8080/gardenpath/registrar/param-value
   /init-param
   init-param
 param-namegardenpath.httpserver.port/param-name
 param-value8080/param-value
   /init-param
   load-on-startup1/load-on-startup
 /servlet

the default path taken by it is gardenpath as mentioned above.
for our project we need to configure the web.xml file in such a way
that it configures our javaserver pages.

could u please help us in this and as to what is going on  with this,
how to change the entire servlet code above to jsp and as to how to register 
to get our java server pages running.

also need information regarding as to how to use tomcat manager application.

we would be greatly helpful if u can help us in this regard.

waiting for ur reply.thanking u

sunil k.n.s

RE: java -server

2002-10-09 Thread Shapira, Yoav

Hi,
For our apps, which are big, long-running, server-side apps, running
with 
-server consistently reduced stability.  We were getting internal JVM
crashes every now and then.  Dropping the -server argument made those go
away.  All other JVM args (we have a lot) stayed the same, and we
experimented with dropping and modifying them.  This is for JDK 1.3.1
and 1.4.0.  Haven't tried this with 1.4.1, yet.

I would vote against making -server the default mode.  Let people choose
their own JAVA_OPTS, just as we've been doing.

The latter option (try it yourself) is the only sane option on something
like this.  The only valid benchmark for your application is your
application :-).

Re: java -server

2002-10-08 Thread David Kavanagh

Well, Javasoft provides some general discussion about what was done on 
the -server implementation. In general, the client VM will start up 
faster. The server VM will do more up-front optimization. You really 
need to try both and convince yourself which is better for you.

Great Book - More Servlets and Java Server Pages

2002-03-19 Thread Andy Eastham

All,

I've just finished reading More Servlets and Java Server Pages by Marty
Hall.  I wish I'd read this when I'd been new to Tomcat.  It's brilliant as
it really explains _exactly_ how to configure things in Tomcat (plus a
couple of other engines), and has some excellent examples.

See http://www.moreservlets.com

It is the sequel to Core Servlets and Java Server Pages, which is
available free in PDF on this site.  There is also an excellent Tomcat 4
configuration guide on the site.

I'd suggest that anyone who has problems getting started with Tomcat reads
this book now, eg web.xml explained completely...

It's also got a lot advanced stuff too and covers security and Servlet
Filters excellently.

Thoroughly recommended for anyone who doesn't know absolutely everything
about servlets, jsp and Tomcat.

Andy

PS I've no connection to the author!

Wrapping Java server apps into servlets under Tomcat

2002-01-28 Thread Teemu Hiltunen

Greetings!

As I have read the J2EE specifications I have found out that Web
Applications should only consist of static web content, jsps, servlets and
such, but is there any point to wrap my Java server application into a
servlet that starts up the server, maybe monitors its state, shuts it down
when needed etc.? I have tried this sort of a approach and built a simple
servlet that launches my server in its init() method. It seems to work
just fine, it can connect to database and it can sit down and wait for
client calls through a specific socket. But, if I put that server servlet
under the same Tomcat instance that serves my client servlets those
servlet apps seems not to be started at all..(server waiting for client
calls through a socket blocks the whole thing?). I put my server servlet
under a different Tomcat instance than client servlet apps and after that
everything seems to work just fine except that I keep getting some
strange behaviour with my client servlets - e.g. when trying to log in to
the system using my logger servlet it tells that a specific user id is
invalid even though it is not and it worked with the original system...

Has anyone done any similar work - wrapping server applications into
servlets? Is there some documents in the web on this topic? Any opinions?

One more thing; my client applets use JDK1.1 due to browser issues and
they communicate with my server using serialized message objects. Is it
right that if I build those serialized objects with JDK1.2/1.3/1.4 they
will not work in applets - the serialization/deserialization mechanism is
different? It seems that even if I run my server servlet under Tomcat
4.0.1 with JDK1.3.1 the client applets can handle the serialized messages
coming from the server - both objects created at runtime and objects read
from files (files are written using JDK1.1 and includes one big
serialized object each). This is not really any Tomcat issue but a Java
core issue but I was just wondering whether I can use Tomcat 4.0.1 and
Java2 or should I take an older Tomcat that works with JDK1.1.


I thank thee for any advice thy can give on these topics.

Need Help: Questions for Java Server Book

2001-02-21 Thread Art Taylor

I'm working on a Java Web site book that features Tomcat as the Java server of
choice (yeah!). I have a few questions that aren't clear from the
documentation.

 The 'Logger' element contains a 'name' attribute. How is this 'name' used?

 Are there certain logs that must be present for Tomcat, i.e., the tc_log
(Tomcat)?

  What are the proper settings for the 'debug' attribute that is used with
several of the elements?  To which log does this output get written?

  I assume the 'VerbosityLevel' settings are hierarchical, effectively
inheriting the output of the previous levels, i.e., a 'Fatal' VerbosityLevel
includes the output of the Error, Warning and Information levels? Is that
correct? And if so, is DEBUG included in that hierarchy, or is that a separate
level?

  Assert: one ContextManager per Tomcat Instance? Is that correct?

  Assert: elements and attributes are case sensitive. Failure to use proper
case results in silent errors (the attribute or element is not used)? Is that
correct?

  

 Thanks,

   -- Art Taylor
