I've used JSF (MyFaces) on a one year project before moving to WO (two years ago), here are my feelings:
- A lot of XML configuration needed
- Uneasy component extension/creation
- Needs mixing HTML/JSP/JSF to achieve some goals
- Heavy

This was true two years ago, but now ?
Despite those negative points I enjoyed developping with JSF (but now WO replaced it in my heart).

Note that Oracle donated a lot of their work to the MyFaces project and correct me if I am wrong
ADF is no more supported.

As a final word i'd say that I won't choose JSF for new project, i'd rather choose other frameworks
like wicket or tapestry which are far more mature.

Regards

FJ

Greetings,

I have a nice new greenfield application to work on, with the caveat
that the web framework be constructed using JSF components. I don't
know much about JSF, but a few days playing with it makes me think
that it is going to frustrate me. Number one gripe is the amount of
HTML I have to write. WebObjects is considerably more pleasant to work
with - a proper component web framework.

Yes, I have searched the archives for JSF, and the following is worth repeating:

Can the list provide a few pros and cons about JSF? - I may be able to
turn the ship before its too late, but need more JSF experiences than
I personally have. What about the various implementations of the
standard? MyFaces? ICEFaces? The Oracle thing (ADFaces?)?

Share your pain :-)
Thanks
Geoff
