In this session we'll explore some of the corners of the RichFaces toolbox in detail and give you a taste of some advanced functionality. This will include a demo of RichFaces drag-n-drop, ajax request queues, layout components and more. I'll also be covering some recent changes to the project, and our plans for RichFaces 4; for example, how RichFaces 4 with full JSF 2.0 integration will change various components such as a4j:support, the Component Development Kit (CDK), etc….



RichFaces is a large and diverse component library that has influenced the JSF 2.0 standard. With over a 100 AJAX enabled components there is always something new to try. This session aims to expose attendees to RichFaces functionality they may not have seen before, because when it comes to component libraries many people tend to use the same small set of components, and rarely deviate. That's like eating the same food every night - there's a lot more in RichFaces to experience!
