TOTD #47: Getting Started with Mojarra 2.0 nightly on GlassFish v2
Java Server Faces 2.0 specification
(JSR 314,
EDR2) and implementation
(soon to be EDR2) are brewing. This blog shows how to get started with Mojarra
- Sun's implementation of JSF.
GlassFish v2 comes bundled with Mojarra 1.2_04 which allows you to
deploy a JSF 1.2 application. This blog explains how you can update
GlassFish v2 to use Mojarra 2.0 nightly. And then it deploys a simple
JSF 1.2-based application on this updated GlassFish instance, there by
showing that your existing JSF 1.2 apps will continue to work with
Mojarra 2.0-enabled GlassFish. This is an important step because it
ensures no regression, unless it was a compatibility fix :)
- Re-create a simple JSF 1.2 application as described in TOTD #42, TOTD #45 and TOTD #46. This application allows to create a list of cities and store them in a backend database. It uses JSF Extensions to show suggestions, using Ajax, based upon the cities already entered and also uses Facelets as the view technology. Alternatively you can use any pre-existing JSF 1.2 application.
- Download Mojarra 2.0 latest nightly.
- Follow Release Notes to install the binary, the steps are summarized here for convenience (GlassFish installed in GF_HOME):
- Backup "GF_HOME/lib/jsf-impl.jar".
- Copy the new "jsf-api" and "jsf-impl" JARs from the unzipped Mojarra distribution to "GF_HOME/lib".
- Edit "GF_HOME/domains/<domain-name>/config/domain.xml" and add (or update the existing "classpath-prefix") 'classpath-prefix="${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/jsf-api.jar" in the java-config element.
- Restart your server.
- Deploy the application on Mojarra 2.0-enabled GlassFish, that's it!
If only "S" is entered in the city name, then the following output is shown:
Now with "San" ...
And another one with "De" ...
With JSF 2.0, Ajax capabilities and Facelets are now part of the specification and have already been integrated in Mojarra. A follow up blog entry will show how to use that functionality.
The downloaded Mojarra bundle has some samples (in "samples" folder) to get you started, have a look at them as well!
File JSF related bugs here using "2.0.0 EDR1" version and ask your questions on webtier@glassfish.dev.java.net.
Please leave suggestions on other TOTD (Tip Of The Day) that you'd like to see. A complete archive of all tips is available here.
