• The Geronimo renegade: Facing JSF by Nicholas Chase   - [Clicks: 101]
  The last time I wrote a "Geronimo renegade" column, I was wondering what the big deal was about Spring, and when I followed up, I joked that now I needed someone to tell me why JavaServer Faces (JSF) was so hot. Wouldn't you know it that the next thing that crossed my desk was a request to do a piece on the intersection between Apache Geronimo and Apache MyFaces, focusing on their implementation of JSF? Well, it turns out to have been a good thing. I struck up a conversation with Tim McConnell at IBM, who's in the process of integrating Geronimo and MyFaces, and I learned a lot more than I expected about how specifications like this actually get implemented.

• The Definitive Guide to Apache MyFaces and Facelets by Martin Marinschek, Thomas Spiegl, Zubin Wadia   - [Clicks: 702]
  The Definitive Guide to Apache MyFaces and Facelets is an ideal reference if you’re looking to develop real-world applications with the open source lightweight Apache MyFaces and Dojo (the Ajax API). The book focuses less on theory and more on aspects like scalability, design, optimization, and configurability. This book emphasizes meeting real-world requirements for performance and scalability. It includes lucid code samples that reflect the pattern being described. The “In the Trenches” sections in each chapter give you advice and recommendations based on actual experiences with each pattern. What’s more, the “Extreme Extensions” section at the end of each relevant chapter is dedicated to a “freestyle” expression of taking a particular pattern or set of patterns to the max. (This is a great way for you to learn because of the magnification effect.) This is also the first book to embrace the Dojo framework for Ajax (soon to be an Apache project).
