JSF Beginner

Hello,
I am new JSF. When I compiles the application which has almost the correct settings, i have come across the error
"Error(8): Unable to instantiate tag: h:form (class: null) Make sure that the tag class is available and that the tag library containing the class is not excluded from this application."
I am using JDeveloper IDE.
What can be done to avoid this?

I have the same problem now as the person who posted this a good 2 years back - and its amazing that there really isnt a solution that i have come across so far. It shows that JSF is still maturing.
The funny thing is that MyEclipse is able to compile and run the same code on Tomcat just fine - its when i try to move the code to JDeveloper or try to use Oracle Application Server that i get these problems. On top of the fact that i cannot even use standard JSF tags, i am trying to using RichFaces 3.1 - all this works perfectly in MyEclipse/Tomcat.
As a little experiment, i tried exporting the web application from MyEclipse as a WAR file and tried deploying it on OC4j - the RichFaces content was rendered but all the rich styles provided were gone ! - no more scrollbars, tabbed panes etc from RichFaces - but I could view them while running on the Tomcat container.
If all these JSF implementations are going to be dependent on the IDEs/Containers etc, i think the J from JSF needs to be removed.
If any one on this forum has been successful in using JSF, RichFaces on OC4J/JDeveloper you will be doing a huge favor by letting other developers know how the heck you managed to get all this working !

JSF beginner needs help

Hello,
I am experimenting with JSF and I tried to run the guessNumber sample application. I would like to add some functionality to that application by saving to database the number entered in the form provided it matches duke's random number.
It appears that whatever is filled in the form, the same code is executed in the ApplicationHandler class.
Therefore I don't know where to insert the code that saves the number to database.
Can somebody help?
Thanks in advance,
Julien.

Thanks for your response vaidhykumar,
My java class is actually a bit more complicated than the sample user number bean as it has several fields to be persisted/saved to database. (I am posting this new message as I don't want to make any mistake.) How would you save a userNumberBean with, say, three member variables (instead of the one member variable of the sample) with matching fields in the database?

Building the site structure for a dynamic website with JSF

Hi,
I am still a JSF-beginner.
I try to build a fully-functional base-demo-application with a fix and a dynamic part.
Fix part for menu, dynamic part for site-content.
At the moment, the JSF-hyperlinks of the main menu work, but any JSF-parts in the included documents of the dynamic part are not shown. I guess, this is dued to inclusion of subviews, but I cannot find any similar examples in the web to come one step further.
Here my complete demo:

Who can name me that code positions responsible for that the JSF link in the dynamic part is not shown?
It is not that it does not work it is not shown. The JSF tree seems to be cut because of wrong use of view and subview etc.
(To put view tags in site1.jsp and site2.jsp does not help.)
(Once having afforded an example it should go... (*Then* with JSTL, external CSS, etc. ;) )
Dynamical site structure with include files is the big problem at the moment.)
bye, Maik

I found your following suggestions for such cases (seems you are the only profound JSF freak in the world...? :-) )
Switch between subviews in one main page
http://balusc.blogspot.com/2007/01/dynamic-jsf-subviews.html
But the main problem for me is that I never find complete examples, but always fragments and it would be important for a beginner to have at least once a complete JSF example over a few subviews, especially here where it is very easy to corrupt the internal tree.
(Some examples use the subview tags in the calling JSP, some in the called e.g.... Does not matter where to put it? Some use verbatim tags for HTML code outside JSF, some don't... and so on)
Can anyone give me an URL for a complete example of a JSF site (with all files as possible, I am not very patient, too, but in this case it makes sense to have it entire ;-) ) with dynamic switches of subviews as preferentially used for bigger portal sites?

CommandButton tag will not display

Hello, I'm a jsf beginner and have just tried deploying and viewing my first jsp .xhtml page (using netbeans). I am trying to display a simple command button, but for some reason, it does not get displayed in my browser -- I get a blank page. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong. Any help would be appreciated. The markup is as follows:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

How do you have the Faces Servelt mapped in your web.xml? What URL are you using to access the page? Where exactly is the page in the WAR? What do you get when you view the source of the page?

Javax.el.ValueExpression

Hi all,
I am new JSF beginner, I am using J2EE1.4 for compile my class which rejected as javax.el.ValueExpression.class not found. So where can I download the javax.el package and still using J2EE1.4 version for my container / other container.
Thanks a lot.

javax.el.ValueExpression is part of JSF 1.2 and so it's in EE 5. You need to move to JSF 1.2 which can be done by using Glassfish version 9.
Tomcat does not support JSF 1.2 yet as far as I know.

Setting global component defaults / Inheritance of components

Hi all,
I'm a JSF beginner, working with VWP & Netbeans. I got two questions :
1) What is the best way to set �n application wide default value for a specific component property? (eg, setting the row-property for all rowgroup components to 5)
2) Is it possible (and good practice) to implement an inherited component (from sun.ui.components) ? (I want to overwrite/extend some of the base functionality of the vwp-components. Do i have to implement an inherited class or can i use some kind of callbacksfor this?).
Thanks for any help!

Hi, I suppose you should use b1.setBounds() rather than setLocation()

Beginner's JSF problems

Hi - I'm a beginner at using JSF. I've worked with Java and Struts, and I'm comfortable with Netbeans. I'm working through some example code from one of the JSF books and I'm having the following problems:
1) The following code simply doesn't work...
<h:commandLink action="logout">
<h:graphicImage url="images/logout.gif"
styleClass="header-icon"
alt="Logout" />
<h:outputText value="Logout" styleClass="header-command" />
</h:commandLink>
This code should load the 'logout' JSP page. The navigation is set correctly.
I replaced this code with the following line, and it does exactly what I want - load the JSP page:
<h:commandButton title="Logout" value="Logout" action="logout"/>
What have I done wrong with the command link? The page prints the link, and it looks like it can be selected (when the mouse moves over it) but it won't go to the logout page...
2) I added a button, which I want to gray out based on a value in the 'User' javabean. This works (arbitrarily):
<h:commandButton title="Admin" value="Admin"
action="admin" disabled="false" />
But this doesn't:
<h:commandButton id="cmd_Admin" title="Admin" value="Admin" acti
on="admin" disabled="#{user.admin}" />
The 'user' variable maps to a bean class named 'User'. The routine
"public boolean user.isAdmin() " gets called, and logs a message that it is about to return a value of 'false'. But the button is not grayed out, and in fact the generated HTML code does not have a 'disabled' entry. I'm obviously not getting the right information back from the bean - or I'm calling the wrong routine entirely... What should I be doing in this case?
Thanks in advance.

Your command button should have an "action" parameter
that points to a method in the backing bean. No .. This is not the problem .. The action="#{myBean.action}" where action() returns a String will just be expressed to action="returnedString" and then the navigationhandler will pick up the String value to handle navigation.
And now the real problem with commandLink: such a construction just works here. Probably you've made a typo somewhere else? Which JSF version are you using? Ive tested it at 1.1_02 and 1.2_02. The basic example i've used looks like:
test.jsp<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<f:view>
    <html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h:form>
        <h:commandLink action="logout">
            <h:graphicImage url="logout.gif" />
            <h:outputText value="logout" />
        </h:commandLink>
    </h:form>
    </body>
    </html>
</f:view>logout.jsp<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<f:view>
    <html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h:outputText value="You're logged out." />
    </body>
    </html>
</f:view>faces-config.xml navigation:<navigation-rule>
    <navigation-case>
        <from-outcome>logout</from-outcome>
        <to-view-id>logout.jsf</to-view-id>
    </navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>And now the problem with EL in the disabled attribute: this also just works here.
JSF<h:form>
    <h:commandButton value="action" action="#{myBean.action}" disabled="#{myBean.disabled}" />
</h:form>MyBeanpublic void action() {
    System.out.println("action");
public boolean isDisabled() {
    return true;
// this also works
public Boolean getDisabled() {
    // null or Boolean.FALSE will be handled as false and Boolean.TRUE will be handled as true
}Probably you're doing something wrong again?

How can I test a JSF application?

Hi all,
I'm beginner in JSF applications.
I'd like to know how could I to do a little project using JSF.
Does anyone send me a link with that steps?
So, for example, I tried this: http://myfaces.apache.org/risamples.html
But it does not run!
I got this error: "HTTP Status 503 - Servlet Faces Servlet is currently unavailable"
I'd like to config an application with:
- myfaces-tobago
- or tomahawk
But I don't know where I must to place each jar files in order to the application can work fine. That is the big issue:
Where MUST I to place EACH jar file in order to application does not complain!
is there any template with a bit project pre-configured?
I will be very pleased with any help!
Regards!
PS:
I'm using:
- Eclipse with Exadel plugin
- Tomcat Tomcat 5.5

Hi!
I solved that problems!
Related the JSF, It was about the correct <managed-property> .
Now would be only about the following:
- myfaces-tobago
- or tomahawk
thanks anyway

Inserting values into multiple tables in one jsf page with single commit op

hi all,
i have two tables ,

i feel my question is not clear.
let me explain my question clearly.
1. i have two records
*1. emp_names*
attributes of this table is 1.emplid
2.emp_name.
emplid is a primary key.
2. emp_contact
attributes of this table is 1.emplid
2. contact_no
In this table emplid is forigen key from emp_name table
contact_no is primary key.
and my senerio is,
for one emplid there are many contact no.
in database diagram i have created these two entities. and from that i have generated two views objects.
now in jsf page ,
i shd have all fields from both the records.
wn ever i click on add button , i shd be able to insert one complete row of data to both the tables.
means,
emplid
empl_name
contact_no.
and if i click on commit button data shd be insert in both the tables.
so how to achive this?
am very beginner to the jdeveloper tool.

How to make Javascript access standard JSF component

Hello all,
I'm in need of a proper javascript code that access standard jsf component.
Like we do for html tags;
if( el.tagName.toLowerCase() != 'select')
I need to do the same thing for a jsf tag i.e; <h:selectOneMenu>. How to make javascript access <h:selectOneMenu> like it does with <select> tag ? Please let me know asap. Extremely sorry if the question is kind of stupid....cause I'm a beginner for JSF environment.
Any sort of help, suggestion or advice would highly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Ummmm, I may be off the beaten path, but by the time your javascript is called the h:selectOneMenu would be a select tag within the dom. You should be able to reference that tag as you normally would.

if (uiViewRoot.findComponent("txtAddressLine2") != null) {
System.out.println("Found ");
inputText = (RichInputText)uiViewRoot.findComponent("txtAddressLine2");
inputText.setValue("my value");
} else {
System.out.println("Not Found "); //Always not found
Can anybody tell me correct way to access components and set their values inside Declarative Components itself?

Thanks buddies....its resolved!
This is how I have done it -
Components have these 2 Input Texts :
<af:inputText label="Label 1" id="txt1" autoSubmit="true" immediate="true"
binding="#{DC2.txt1}" validator="#{DC2.txt1_validator}"/>
<af:inputText label="Label 2" binding="#{DC2.txt2}" id="txt2"
immediate="true" autoSubmit="true" partialTriggers="txt1"/>
Code in Component Bean setting value is as follows:
RichInputText txt22;
txt22 = getTxt2();
txt22.setSubmittedValue("Some Value");

UIX or JSF

Hi,
I know pretty little of Java so forgive me if this should turn out to be a beginner question.
Could some one please shed some light on the difference between UIX and JSF? I am just starting to make my own "Pet Shop" application and was wondering if I should be implementing it with UIX or JSF prerelease?
JSF seems to have pretty many controlls and it is a standard. On the other hand UIX is heres since over a year or two, it should be more stable. Is Oracle going to support both on the long run? If yes then why and when should I use UIX and when JSF? If no, then will there be an automatic migration utility or I better start using right away the JSF contolls? As far as I know the event handling of UIX and JSF is different so why learn both?
Every help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Tamas Szecsy

Well start by reading the UIX roadmap document:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/papers/9.0.5.0/adfuix_roadmap/adfuix_roadmap.html
Then consider your options - UIX actually has more components today than JSF, it has a visual editor in JDeveloper and it has databinding.
JSF is still new, you can use it in JDeveloper but you'll be missing the visual editing and drag and drop data binding right now. ADF Faces adds many of the components that UIX has to JSF. And future versions of JDeveloper will have visual editing and databinding for JSF also.
