Hello,
I think that you have to choose between a JSF controller and a
controller in the sense you are discussing it. If I am not mistaken,
the use of Struts together with JSF, for example, requires that when a
request is presented to the web application it choose at the outset
between Struts and JSF. As a consequence, if this is right, what you
have in mind won't really work. I think that you cannot use the JSF
stuff without using the JSF page based controller. (This is not to
say that you cannot use traditional model 2 controllers in an
environment where JSF is used. This is just to say that you have to
choose JSF or model 2 when the request arrives and you cannot go to
the model 2 controller then to JSF or vice versa, if I understand.)
If that is wrong, someone should correct this misconception.
