In this session, Keith will go "behind the scenes" and explore the framework architecture underpinning Spring's JSF integration. Attendees will gain valuable framework design and architectural insight.
A deep-dive design session into how Spring and JSF integrate, and how the integration has evolved over the years.
Integrating Spring and JavaServerFaces
