JSF Portlet using IBM RAD 6.0 and tomahawk.jar

I am trying to use the tomahawk Date tag in a JSR 168 Portlet using IBM's RAD 6.0 but am unable to make the date's calendar button show. Has anyone been able to successfully make this work? I have the filter
defined and tag mported.
I get the following messages in my server

I encountered errorThere are countless kinds of errors on the world. Unfortunately you didn't mention which one you got. Can you please copypaste here the complete message and the stacktrace here? Errors are not to be ignored, they can certainly be helpful in finding the solution. You as developer should know that better.
At least I can tell you that you can just mix component libraries with each other as long as you don't mix JSF implementations with each other. The IBM Faces Client Framework is just a component library and so is Tomahawk. But for example MyFaces and Sun RI are JSF implementations and cannot be mixed with each other.

Is JSF components changed in RAD 7.0?

Hi,
I see that some of the components like h:commandLink are missing in the RAD 7.0. Is that so?
Also is there any documents which shows the usage of all the JSF components?
Thanks,
Elango

Depends on the JSF implementation used in RAD. Consult the RAD manfacturer and its documentation.

How do you kick-off an action/event before a JSF Portlet is rendered?

Hi,
I am creating JSR-168 Portlets using Sun RI 1.1 and need the ability to call an action (ie. method) of the JSF Portlet before it is rendered. Any ideas how to do this?
Scenario To Resolve
If a customer is on the Check-Out Portal Page, the check-out portlet will initially display the shopping cart information.
The customer will then click buy and the portlet will display a confirmation page.
Now, if the customer decides to do additional shopping (ie. place a second order).
The customer will navigate to a different Portal Page to browse items.
Once the customer is done shopping, the customer will click Check-Out and the Portal will display the Check-Out Portal Page. Currently, when the check-out portlet is rendered, the portlet is automatically rendering the confirmation page (ie. the last state of the check-out portlet).
Question
How can I control the state of the portlet so that the initial state of the portlet is rendered (ie. the shopping cart information)?
- Is there something built into the JSR-168 Spec? Or, Sun's JSF RI 1.1 that will enable me to kick-off an action/event before a JSF Portlet is rendered?
- If this functionality is not built in, has anyone faced this challenge? If so, how did you extend the framework to resolve it?

JSF IBM (RAD) Components examples

Hello I am using RAD/Websphere for my JSF development and was wondering if there are any sample (examples) demonstrating the IBM-JSF tag capabilities (for eg say example code using hx:inputHelperDatePicker ) .
MyFaces has some excellent examples for its Tomahawck jar which are easy to understand does IBM JSF have something very similar to that .
Thanks

There is no technical API documentation freely available. "Officially" you should do some (expensive) IBM-courses to learn about using IBM-JSF in WSAD/RAD. Then you will get some documentation. Blame IBM ;)
Well, you may find some useful information in the following Redbooks:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg246449.html
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247183.html
I suggest you to play somewhat with that WYSIWYG JSF editor of RAD/WSAD and meanwhile check the generated JSF code and backing bean code (the so-called pagecode). Read the code, learn from it and try manually rebuild the code without using that WYSIWYG stuff.

Problem in navigation of portletized JSf application using ADF on portal

Hi All,
I am implementing a simple scenario wherein i have an ADF Business Component (a simple drop down) and a command button. On click of the button, there is a navigation from one jsp to another.
I am able to portletize a simple application using ADF Business Component.It runs fine when run on local.
But when i put it on portal, navigation does not work.the control is not transferred to the method of backing bean.It is not showing loggers either.
jdev version :10.1.3.3
oracle portal :10.1.4
Standalone OC4j : 10.1.3
If any one has working model of this, can you pls post the files used.
Also , if anyone has work around for same, it will be helpful.Thanks.

Errors using themes and tomahawk within portlets

I've been developing a portlet using Creator2 Update 1 that uses the myfaces tomahawk library of components. Besides the difficulty of not being able to use the visual designer, I've managed to get my portlet functioning the way I want.
My next step was to apply styles to my portlet. The difficulty here is that since portlets are aggregated within a portal, the portlet does not have access to the <head> tag of the container page (meaning I couldn't just add my own stylesheets and link them in.) I'm not sure how Creator works around this problem - I just know that it manages to using <ui:themeLinks> somehow.
Changing the theme for a regular Creator-components-only (read: no tomahawk) is a no-brainer. I simply pick a different theme in the Project view and set it as the Current Theme. I can even set my own user-defined theme. Running the portlet either through Creator or Liferay shows the applied theme.
However, once I start using tomahawk components, the theme system breaks down, throwing exceptions, such as the following:
com.sun.rave.web.ui.theme.ThemeConfigurationException: WARNING: the Sun Web Components could not load any themes.
at com.sun.rave.web.ui.theme.ThemeFactory.createThemeManager(ThemeFactory.java:274)
Curiously, it only breaks if I use one of my user-defined themes. The Creator-provided themes will work with the tomahawk components portlet.
In short, I am baffled. Creator-provided themes work regardless of tomahawk components present. My own themes work so long as there aren't tomahawk components present.

Sorry, I don't think that's going to work. Themes are not used in the standard SES index, and therefore the Oracle Text knowledgebase is not installed - hence the DRG-11446 error you're seeing.
If you figured out a way to install the knowledgebase from another system (and I'm NOT recommending that), you would still need to recreate the text index with INDEX_THEMES turned on.
You should be able to connect to the SES instance from a remote machine by commenting out both "tcp.invited_nodes" and "tcp.validnode_checking" from the sqlnet.ora file. Not sure why just adding an entry to tcp.invited_nodes didn't work for you.

Query- IPC using JSF Portlets in WebLogic Portal

The question is how to pass data when doing InterPortlet Communication using Local JSF portlets in Weblogic Portal.
I will eloborate on the particular scenario we have below.
Two JSF portlets are build (both are not using Java Page Flows). The first porltet has a table of data. When the user clicks on one of the items in the table (which is coded using <h:commandLink/> option), the second portlet should show some details on the item clicked.
For example:
If there is a list of books in first portlet, when clicking on one of the book name, the details of book should come up in the second portlet.
To achieve this, faces event was enabled in first portlet with requestAttrPersistence option set to session.
For example :
<netuix:content>
<netuix:facesContent contentUri="/bookList.faces" requestAttrPersistence="session">
<netuix:facesEvents>
<netuix:facesEvent action="/bookDetails.faces" eventName="bookDetailEvent"/>
</netuix:facesEvents>
</netuix:facesContent>
</netuix:content>
The second portlet was configured to handle faces events, particularly the bookDetailEvent.
Example:
<netuix:handleFacesEvent eventLabel="handleFacesEvent1" eventName="bookDetailEvent" fromSelfInstanceOnly="false" onlyIfDisplayed="true" sourceDefinitionLabels="JSFPortlet_1" sourceDefinitionWildcard="this">
<netuix:invokeFacesAction action="/bookDetails.faces"/>
</netuix:handleFacesEvent>
Going by this method, how can we find the particular book whose detail has to be shown? As in JSF, we dont directly access the request attributes, what is the ideal way to pass data from one page to other?
Please help on this.

i am also having the same problem.I tried by passing _nfls=false but it didn't work.Can you suuggest where do i need to set this or any other parametrs such as this programmatically?

Where do I put the Jakarta files standard.jar and jstl.jar when developing with JSF 2.0 in OEPE using web logic server

hi everybody, I am wondering what should i do with the standard.jar and jstl.jar files when using we logic. I tried putting both files into
the directory c:\oracle\middleware\oracle_home\user_projects\domains\base_domain\bin. I don't know if this is correct. Thanks in
in advance for the help.

Anyways I found this link on www.oracle.com website by the same author of the book I am reading Deepak Vohra - Templating with JSF 2.0 Facelets.
although here he is using Weblogic 11g although I don't think it makes a difference. have a look at the Setting up the Environment section
where he says to download the jstl.jar and standard.jar files.

Resetting the JSF Portlet State in weblogic portal 10.3 and JSF1.2

Hi ,
I have a Registration JSF Portlet. It has two pages, “Registration home Page" and " Registration confirm Page". After I,enter the Registration details on " Registration home Page" and click submit, I will get a " Registration confirm Page". Add this JSF Portlet on a page in weblogic portal 10.3. Now visit some other page and comeback to the page on which I added the JSF Portlet, I will see that it is showing " Registration confirm Page", i.e the state is retained.
My problem is... I want to see " Registration home Page " everytime you visit the page. how can be achieved in weblogic portal 10.3.
Can any one help me out with this problem ..
Thanks,
Ram

My approach was to programmatically redirect to the page again with _nfpb=false. I do this in the handlePostbackData() method in the portlet's backing file.
redirectUrl = redirectUrl.replaceAll("_nfpb=true", "_nfpb=false");
PortletBackingContext.getPortletBackingContext(request).sendRedirect(redirectUrl);

JSF Datatable - Any difference with JSF1.1 and JSF 1.2

In my project there are lot of Datatables, which retrieve data from the database and display it to the user. For each datatable, the columns are not fixed. I want to create some kind of component that can be reusable.
It is basically a JSF portlet. Now i have to use RAD 6. RAD 6 supports only JSF1.1. I have to migrate this to RAD7 in the near future. Are there any differences between the Datatable in JSF 1.1 and JSF 1.2?
I had this approach in mind.
a) Create the datatable programmatically and put the contents to panelgrid. This way the jsp code will be minimized. Is it a good option.? Are the APIs same in both the versions?
b) Is it possible to create a custom datatable which can take some key as input. Then based on the key the datatable can be populated with as many columns as desired.
Please let me know if there are any other good options.

JSF Portlet input text enter key submission

Hi,
I have a portlet having input text fields and having command action button(hx:commandExButton). But I have a requirment when I presss enter key in the input text fields instead of submitng form, I want submit command action button.
Could you please give the details. how I will do in JSF Portlets (code snipeet).
Currently I implemented when user press enter key I am calling java script function and submit the form.
Thanks

Firstly: why using IBM's hx:commandButton instead of standard RI h:commandButton?
Well, pressing [enter] somewhere in a inputfield usually invokes the firstnext button in the form. Doesn't this happen in your form? Or is the "wrong" button being invoked?

ADF With IBM RAD 7

Hi,
I work on a project which is currently using RAD 7 as IDE. The application is already developed and is running fine with websphere and RAD IDE. We are trying to redevelop some of the existing pages with newer technology to improve look and feel. For that we are evaluating using ADF. By going through the documentation I was impressed with the components that ADF offers compared to the what IBM offers. Is it possible to use ADF libraries in RAD 7 for development? Can any one provide steps to do the same?
Thanks,
Swarna

Hi Swarna,
As far as I know, the ADF framework as a whole can only be used within JDeveloper. But for an already existing framework, you could use some of the components of ADF. I worked on a project that is developed in IBM RAD / Eclipse and uses parts of the ADF framework.
I understand you are mainly looking for new technologies for your front end. In our project we used the open sourced ADF Faces components of ADF 10.1.3. They are open sourced as part of the Apache MyFaces project, under the Trinidad subproject. The component set is indeed much more extensive than IBM's components. The only downside is that there are no nice icons and property panes for non-IBM components. So don't try this if you fear hand-coding some JSF XML.
Whatever set of components you are going to use, you might want to check Facelets as an alternative to JSP as container for your JSF components. There is a nice introduction to Facelets on the website of IBM.
Good luck!
Best regards,
Bart Kummel

Issue in converting Struts view to JSF view using struts-faces integration

Hi All,
I am facing a issue in my Sruts to JSF conversion application using struts-faces.jar integration library.
Need expert's help desperately as I am not able to use <s:form> tag in my new jsf page to call a struts action.
I want to call a struts action from my web page designed using JSF,
but it seems impossible without using <s:form> tag from struts-faces integration library.
Please suggest how to resolve this...
I am using WSAD 5.1 IDE with inbuilt Test environment WebSphere server
JSF Version: Sun's RI 1.1
Struts framework: 1.2.6
Struts-Faces Integration Library version: 1.0
I have configured a controller element in struts-config.xml file as has been suggested by different online
documents I studied:
<controller>
<set-property property="processorClass"
value="org.apache.struts.faces.application.FacesRequestProcessor"/>
</controller>
But configuring a controller does not allow my test server to start up properly and due to errors the ActionServlet also becomes unavailable.
If I comment the controller and start the test server it starts fine but then I cannot access the converted jsf page which contains the <s:form action="/xxxxx.do"> tag.
If now I get back to <h:form> tag instead of <s:form> tag with a <h:commandButton action="xxxx.do"/> for form submission in my jsf page, I see the html page generated with all components but now checking the html source generated I see
<form action="/contextName/jspFolder/sameDisplayedPage.jsf"> which is not valid and never gets called successfully.
I think someways I need to use the <s:form> tag with the controller configured properly to use the struts-faces integration library's request processor, to get things working. But HOW???
Following is the error I get if I use the <controller> tag element in struts-config.xml file and start the server.
This error appears on starting the server without accessing any application's jsp web page
[6/12/06 15:31:14:109 IST] 3e311815 ActionServlet E org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet Unable to initialize Struts ActionServlet due to an unexpected exception or error thrown, so marking the servlet as unavailable. Most likely, this is due to an incorrect or missing library dependency.

accessing the jsf page givers error as:

Finally if I change my <s:form action="xxxxx.do"> tag to
<h:form>
<h:commandButton id="submit" action="xxxx.do" value="Submit" />
I see the webpage coming up in the browser (no controller element used in struts-config.xml file this time)
But in the html source of this html created from jsf I see
<form id="_id2" method="post" action="/training2/jsp/welcomeF.faces" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded">
here form's action attribute is pointing to the same displayed page with the context name prefixed. I
assume it is because jsf could not resolve the "xxxx.do" action to anything so set it to the same displayed page.
May be I am wrong as usual...
Below is the simple struts jsp page which I need to convert to jsf page as I am converting only the View part of application.
I want to use the same struts beans and application logic at the back-end. At front-end I need UIComponents from JSF to be used.
Following is the struts jsp page
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="html" uri="/WEB-INF/lib/struts-html.tld" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="bean" uri="/WEB-INF/lib/struts-bean.tld" %>
<html:html>
<html:base/>
<html:messages id="messages" />

<html:errors/>

<BODY>
Sample Struts and JSF integration example
This one is being displayed via Struts specific tags
<html:form action="validateUser.do">
<bean:message key="label.name" /> : <html:text property="name" />
<bean:message key="label.password" /> : <html:password property="password" />
<bean:message key="label.age" /> : <html:text property="age" />
<bean:message key="label.city" /> : <html:text property="city" />
<bean:message key="label.address" /> : <html:text property="address" />
<html:submit property="submit" value="Show info via Struts" />
</html:form>
</BODY>
</html:html>
I have converted it into the following jsf page
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-faces" prefix="s" %>

I've managed to get this working Ok from JDeveloper:
See:
http://www.groundside.com/blog/content/DuncanMills/J2EE+Development/?permalink=573FDB6F8D918B9704907899635CABB1.txt
http://www.groundside.com/blog/content/DuncanMills/J2EE+Development/?permalink=2B04ACE99A6437EDED775F15553D1DED.txt
Basically you just have to fiddle around with Library settings to get this working OK.
As to how useful this is, well that's up to you - I'd not regard Faces + Struts as a must use combination, rather it's a can mix if you really need to. Look at Faces and Faces navigation first and see if that actually gives you enough before you start to look at mixing.

How to install Flex SDK in IBM RAD?

Hi All,
I'm new to Flex and facing some trouble in installing flex 4.6 sdk in my existing IBM RAD application.
There are few flex files that are included in the new release and I need to work on those files (test/debug) to make sure that existing application is not affected with these files.
I have installed Flash Player and latest Flash Builder 4.0 and 4.6 plugin on my system for this purpose.
The Flex SDK, however, I'm not able to configure on my RAD.
Because of this, I'm not able to see the Flex Prespectives in my RAD and mxml & as files are giving error in text editor.
Please guide -
1. How to configure the latest Flex 4.6 SDK in RAD.
2. Apart from what I have done already, do I need to do anything else to debug/test the newly added flex files in my RAD.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Thanks for your great reply i greatly appreciate you efforts.
Arie the thing is that i saw the post you mentioned above and it's kind of tangled,isn't there anyway or any sourceful website for step by step guide because i already mentioned that i am a brand new c/c++ programmer and i have no experience how to do programming in c/c++ as i am android and java developer using eclipse tool so visual studio is somewhat a new world for me.
Please if you have any step by step guidence link or website in your mind,do let me know i anxiously look forward for a step by step guide,but let's say if you don't have anything i want it's perfectly fine i ll try to dig more and work and look in VS 2010 because may be i am new and that's why i can't find the SDK integration.
Once again Arie thanks for your helpful and fast reply i greatly appreciate your co-operation.
Thanks,
Brian
