Hello,
I'm pleased to announce another installment in JSF Central's "In the
Trenches" series about real world projects that use JavaServer
Faces. In this article, two developers of the new open-source content
management system, Alfresco, discuss how JSF is used in their
architecture.
Here's a quote:
When we began work on Alfresco, our Open Source Enterprise Content
Management System, we had two requirements. Firstly, to build a web-based
client that would run as a portlet from within a JSR 168 Portal
environment, and secondly run as a standard web application (see figure
1). Further, the application needed to be easily
customizable and extendable by developers. Java Server Faces appeared to
be the natural choice due its event-based architecture, standardized
component model and the promise of rich tool support. The majority of our
development team had previously worked on defining the architecture for
Documentum's Web Development Kit, which takes a very similar approach to
JSF. In fact, some of the representatives of the team were members of the
JSF expert group, so we knew we were taking the correct architectural
approach.
