Book description
RichFaces 4 is a component library for JavaServer Faces, and an advanced framework for easily integrating AJAX capabilities into business applications. It lets you quickly develop next-generation web applications based on JSF 2/Ajax.
In this definitive RichFaces 4 book, instead of using JBoss Tools, the author bases all examples on Maven so that any IDE can be used—whether it's NetBeans, Eclipse, JBoss or even Spring.
Practical RichFaces also describes how to best take advantage of RichFaces—the integration of the Ajax4jsf and RichFaces libraries—to create flexible and powerful programs. Assuming some JSF background, it shows how you can radically reduce programming time and effort to create rich AJAX-based applications.
What you'll learn
How to build rich Internet applications with out-of-the-box RichFaces components
Best strategies for implementing Ajax applications using RichFaces
When best to use the two libraries
How to create new skins for your app in no time
How to create applications without needing to write any JavaScript code
Who this book is for
Java developers with good JSF knowledge looking to build next-generation web applications using RichFaces
JavaServer Faces users
Java programmers wishing to add Ajax to their existing programs
Old users of Ajax4jsf
