Java Training Overview
This fast-paced course helps experienced JSF-1.x developers jump into the much-improved JSF-2.0 architecture. We highlight various improvements in pre-existing techniques -- implicit navigation, new bean scopes, and so forth -- and then spend most of the course on features that are entirely new to JSF 2.0. Students refactor applications to take advantage of new support HTTP GET requests and query strings, and learn to use Facelets and managed-bean annotations, and to build JSF2 composite components. JSF 2.0 is much more Ajax-aware than its predecessor, and the course concludes with a tour of lifecycle enhancements, the tag, and the standard JavaScript API to build Ajax applications in a straightforward way.
Java Training Prerequisites
- Prior experience with JSF 1.x is strictly required.
- Prior experience with an Ajax-aware JSF component library will be helpful in understanding some of the new features, but is not a requirement.
Java Training Learning Objectives
- Understand the key expansions in the JSF 2.0 architecture.
- Build applications in the typical JSF 2.0 style.
- Migrate from JSP to Facelets as the JSF view definition language.
- Design page flows to take best advantage of GET, POST, and redirect navigations, and pass form parameters and server-side information effectively in all cases.
- Use the new view scope for managed beans.
- Use managed-bean annotations and connect beans with managed-property annotations.
- Build composite UI fragments or custom components using Facelets
- Build Ajax applications with JSF: client-side behaviors and partial requests and responses followed by DOM updates
Server Support: Tomcat
This version of the course works with the Tomcat server. Our Java EE courses are available in variants that support various server products, including Tomcat, GlassFish, JBoss, and WebLogic.
IDE Support: Eclipse Helios
In addition to the primary lab files, an optional overlay is available that adds support for Eclipse Helios. Students can code, build, deploy, and test all exercises from within the IDE, and take advantage of built-in editors, integrated debugging, and wizards for JSF applications, XML files, JSPs, and more.
