JBoss RichFaces is a JSF component library that makes it simple to build Rich Internet Applications with JSF. RichFaces provides a large number of out-of-the-box components with AJAX support and skinability.
This session will cover three different technologies and delivery platforms for building Rich Internet Applications: JSF/RichFaces, Flex, and JavaFX. The pros and cons of each technology will be discussed.
JSF/RichFaces components allow one to easily and quickly build pure browser-based applications. Although JSF/RichFaces has proven itself at the enterprise level, two other technologies, Flex and JavaFX, are also on the radar for Rich Internet Applications. Flex is a framework for building applications that run inside a lightweight, powerful Flash player virtual machine, which installs as a plug-in into any browser. JavaFX is a new open-source, scripting language that runs inside the new, more lightweight, but still familiar, Java runtime environment. Technical examples will be shown.
This session will demonstrate a simple way to use JSF and Flex components on the same page and application while binding them to the same data model (like JSF managed beans).
JSF and various rich component libraries enable the building of sleek and sophisticated AJAX-based RIA applications. To kick it up a notch, Flex components can be used to create a user experience beyond what the browser allows. Flex applications run inside a Flash player virtual machine plug-in and provide far richer experiences than the browser alone. However, using JSF components and Flex components on the same page is a challenge today without some "plumbing" layer underneath.

JBoss RichFaces is a rich JSF component library that helps developers quickly develop next–generation web applications. Practical RichFaces describes how to best take advantage of RichFaces, the integration of the Ajax4jsf and RichFaces libraries, to create a flexible and powerful programs. Assuming some JSF background, it shows you how you can radically reduce programming time and effort to create rich AJAX based applications.
What you’ll learn
- Quickly learn how to build Rich Internet Applications with out–of–the–box RichFaces components.
- Discover best strategies for implementing Ajax applications using RichFaces.
- Find out when best to use the two libraries.
