Working with JavaServer Faces
As web-based applications grow in complexity, there is a need for a good application framework. Without such a framework, the maintenance of such an application becomes difficult, time-consuming and error-prone. In the last few years, several frameworks have been created for web-based Java applications.
In order to propose a standard framework, Sun has created the JavaServer Faces (JSF) framework as J2EE web applications framework. It is seen as an answer on the .NET WebForms with a strong emphasis on event handling and rich-client GUI components. It promotes ease of use due to WYSIWYG tools, similar to the creation of Swing client applications.
This course is available for one-company, on-site presentations.
