Apache MyFaces Trinidad does support Mobile Application Development. There is also some documentation on this feature, here.
Let’s see if we get a (nice) demo…
If you are interested in it, join the large MyFaces community.
Enjoy!

There is a lot of buzz (not only recently) around some extra scope, that is shorter than a session and longer than a request. Such a scope is a very good scope to implement business processes or some wizard (==> step x of n). Lots of frameworks call this “conversation”, so does Orchestra or Seam. In Trinidad there is a “pageFlowScope” for this…
One of the goals of JSF 2.0 is to “standardization of the many different Dialog/Conversation/Scope/Flash... more »

As one reader pointed out here, reusing Facelets custom tag confirmation dialog wasn’t possible because the component id was hard coded. Placing more than one tag on a page would give duplicate id error. I will show you how to pass an id to the custom. Once we can do that, it’s possible to place any number of confirmation dialog tags on the same page.
We are going to add confirmId attribute to the custom tag to pass the id:

It has been a while, since we got the last Trinidad release (August 2008). Today, there were two new releases:
Trinidad 1.2.10: A JSF 1.2 component library (and more)
Trinidad 1.0.10: A JSF 1.1 component library (and more)
Both are mostly identically, however the 1.2.10 contains some more fixes that were made to the core (JSF 1.2 related).
You will find the release notes here:
for 1.0.10
for 1.2.10
The download page will be updated soon and the bits are already... more »

When I do custom on-site JSF/RichFaces training and explain Dependency Injection (DI), people who never had experience with DI before finding it not always easy to grasp what it is. There are two great tutorials that can help with understanding the concepts. One is here written by Rick Hightower and one here written by Jakob Jenkov.

As promised, this is the same Confirmation dialog as here but now it’s packaged as a Facelet custom tag so it’s much easier to reuse.

While out-of-the-box confirmation dialog is not yet available in RichFaces, I will show you how to build one. Tomorrow I will show how to make it more reusable by packaging it as a Facelet custom tag.
If Cancel is clicked then nothing happens. If OK is clicked then the value is... more »

On the heels of elections this week, let me show you how you can use JSF and Flex to build nice looking Flash-based charts with elections results. To use JSF and Flex together, I will be using Exadel Fiji.
Let’s start with electoral votes and use a column chart. Below is an example using rich:columnChart component. It’s a static image here, but it’s actually a Flash component in a JSF page. As you move the mouse over columns, a tool tip is shown.... more »

The last JSFDays conference, in March 2008, was just awesome! A great get together of the JSF community…
Now, after the great success of the very good organized event, there is a volume 2 of it! At the beginning of April 2009 (1st -> 3rd) there are great talks and tutorials about JSF and related topics. Folks like Ed Burns, Cagatay Civici or Kito Mann are presenting in Vienna. I am talking there about Trinidad, ADF Faces and server side push technology (aka comet).
So do... more »
