Making the most of the JSF lifecycle

I have read through some documenation for the JSF lifecycle, I am wondering though how you would really take advantage of it?
One of the purposes of JSF was to insulate the developer from having too know much about HTTP. However, how much do they really need to know about JSF lifecycle and what cool things are there that really show the usefullness of this lifecycle being exposed?
Thanks.

The phases of the lifecycle are just how JSF ticks; they are not there to make your life easier, they are a design choice you have to know about and have to know how to design around. Not knowing about them is eventually going to lead to unexpected behavior caused by wrong assumptions.
One of the purposes of JSF was to insulate the developer from having too know much about HTTP. Utter nonsense, IMO. To use JSF, you should be incredibly familiar with HTTP, HTML and Javascript. Sticking your head in the sand and not taking the time to know the very foundation you are working on is going to make you step in a pothole and hurt yourself badly sooner rather than later.
Of course, that does not stop people from trying. If you want to meet them, they regularly post "how do I do this", "why does this happen" and "bug in JSF?" questions right here in this forum.
However, how much do they really need to know about JSF lifecycleKnow what each phase of the lifecycle does and in which order they are executed. Know when a phase will be skipped. That is in my opinion what you should know to avoid the gotchas.
and what cool things are there that really show the usefullness of this lifecycle being exposed?See previous statements.

  • The most of the application doesn't work in yosemite

    Hi,
    Since yesterday i have problem for open the most of the Applications in Yosemite...only someone of them still working.....
    They only jump...and jump...and jump....but nothing....
    Was already happen one time and especially when i switch off completely my Laptop....but after i couple of reset everything was coming another time normal....

    The system is heavily modified by third-party software. Each such configuration is unique and unpredictable. I can only guess which of the many modifications may be contributing to the problem. As a start toward solving it, I suggest the following steps.
    A
    The battery is due for replacement, and there may be other hardware problems.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. You may have to leave the machine there for several days.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
    B
    Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    C
    Back up all data.
    Run the following command in the same way as before. It moves to the Trash "semaphore" files that have not been cleaned up by the system and may be interfering with normal operation. The files are empty; they contain no data. There will be no output this time.
    find L*/{Con*/*/Data/L*/,}Pref* -type f -size 0c -name *.plist.??????? -exec mv {} .Trash/ \; 2>&-
    Log out or restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    D
    This procedure will delete certain temporary and cache files. The files are automatically generated and don't contain any of your data. Occasionally they can become corrupt and cause problems such as yours.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /var/folders/96
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with a subfolder named "96" selected. Move that subfolder to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    E
    None of the following system modifications serves any real purpose, and any or all could be contributing to the problem:
        WD SmartWare
    I suggest you remove them unconditionally.
    These system modifications may do something useful to you, but could be causing instability or poor performance:
        Arturia Software Center
        Boom
        ControllerMate
        PACE Eden
        VirtualBox
    If you want to keep them, do a trial removal to find out whether they're at fault, and refer to the developers for support if they are.
    F
    The symbol cache file is very large. It stores data used in logs and crash reports, and it may have grown because there have been a lot of crashes. The file is created automatically, and if deleted, it should be recreated when you restart the computer. Initially, at least, it will be a lot smaller.
    I've seen one unverified report that a system became unbootable when the cache was deleted. That would have been due to a corrupt installation of OS X, but you should be prepared to reinstall if necessary. There is no reason to panic as long as you have good backups, which you should already have if you got this far.
    Enter the following command in the same way as before:
    sudo mv /S*/*/Caches/com.apple.coresymbolicationd /tmp/
    Restart the computer.
    G
    Please back up all data, then open the iCloud pane in System Preferences. If the box marked iCloud Drive is checked, uncheck it and confirm. Your iCloud documents should be preserved on Apple's servers.
    Test to see whether there's an improvement, then re-check the box and test again. It may take a noticeable amount of time for your iCloud Drive documents to resynchronize.

  • Making the most of the Zen Micro sound qual

    Recently got a Zen Micro, first thing i realise - AMAZING sound quality!
    If you want to make the most of this great little player, use WMA (If possible Version 9 or 0) @ 92 Kbps (however this does has a large effect on battery life), configure the custom EQ and perhaps buy some new earphones (I own some Sennheiser Mx500's - FANTASTIC sound quality).
    Hope this has been of some help!!

    Even better, use LAME encoded VBR MP3s and some Sony EX5/7 canal phones

  • IMac taking ten minutes to start up and sits at a blue screen for the most of the time. Also, when it goes into sleep mode I am unable to wake it up from it.

    For the past few days now whenever I go to turn on my iMac it takes roughly ten or more minutes to boot up. For the portion of this time it sits on a blank blue screen. At first it comes up to a plain white screen which after about 30 seconds has the apple logo on it and the spinning circle for about a minute then to the blue screen, every time. Then, to top it off right when this started happening another problem began occurring. The computer is set to go into sleep mode after 15 minutes of no use. But, if it is in sleep mode for too long I am unable to get it out and I have to restart the entire computer, but if it is just for a few seconds into sleep or a minute I am able to get the screen to come back. I can still here the fan running and such so I don't know what is going on. I have searched through discussion after discussion. I have tried: repairing disks, repairing permissions, starting up in safe mode, and such. There has been no luck so far. I was wondering if anyone could offer insight into fixing at least one of these problems since my schooling relies on the computer.
    By the way I this is an iMac 10.6.4 refurbished which we just bought about two weeks ago.
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    My iMac i7 quad was having the same symptoms with the blue screen and long startup times a couple of months ago.  Apple Care told me to bring it in to the local Apple Store, and after some diagnostics, the hard drive required replacing.  It took one day to replace the hard drive and my iMac is running great. I only had the iMac for about 12 months when the drive needed to be replaced.  Not sure if that is your Mac's problem, but it was for mine.

  • My iPhone 5 fell down on the floor, than when I pick it up the most of the screen turns to different colors( lines or other stuff) , and when I touch the screen, it doesn't work anymore ,and I search how to fix it on google, but I follow the instructions

    What can I just do now, how can I fix it

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...
    However...
    In your caes (having dropped the iDevice) it looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required... Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • File downloads not working most of the time

    [I originally included this problem in another post; I should know better. I'm posting it separately here in hopes of getting some feedback about this other issue I'm having.]
    When I click on a link on a Web page to download a file (maybe the latest version of Firefox), the Save dialog that appears almost always displays the file name without the extension. For example, I just tried downloading the Firefox installer. Instead of displaying the name as "Firefox Setup 13.0.1.exe", it displayed "Firefox Setup 13.0.1". The file type is listed as "binary file". Every once in a while (maybe one in ten tries), if I quit and relaunch Firefox, immediately return to the download page, and click the file link again, the file name and file type will appear correctly. Almost always, I have to resort to using some other browser to download the file.
    I've tried deleting the browser cache; resetting Firefox from the about:support page; installing a new copy by downloading the installer file from the Mozilla site. None of this has helped.
    The thing that mystifies me the most is the fact that, maybe 10% of the time, the file download succeeds. This (the file download succeeding) seems to happen only immediately after I launch the browser.
    Any ideas?
    --Larry

    Thanks for the suggestion. I followed the instructions and deleted the MimeTypes.rdf file, then relaunched Firefox. Unfortunately, nothing changed.
    I did notice something strange and possibly informative, however: When I tried to download the Firefox installer, the file once again failed to download. The Downloads window that pops up when I download a file gave the full file name, including the ".exe", and displayed "Canceled - mozilla.net". It appears that the file type isn't lost after all, but the download is canceled.
    Any idea what could cause this?

  • Getting the item with the most sales

    I have an Order table which has an order_id, item_id, product_id, quantity, price, total. Now what i'm concerned about is the total and the product_id because i want to find out which item has the highest sales. Which sum(total) is the highest. But I also have to link this up to a customer, the customer_id is in another table which joins to the order table through the order_id. How could i find out which product each customer has ordered the most.

    Not the most elegant, but...
    SELECT * FROM
      (SELECT X.NAME, TO_CHAR(X.TOTAL,'$999,999.99') TOTAL, X.DESCRIPTION,  ROUND( ((TOTAL / ALL_TOTAL)*100) ,2)
         FROM(select A.CUSTOMER_ID,a.name, SUM(b.quantity*b.actual_price) TOTAL, c.description
                 from customer a, item b, product c, sales_order d
                 where A.CUSTOMER_ID = D.CUSTOMER_ID
                   AND D.ORDER_ID = B.ORDER_ID
                   AND B.PRODUCT_ID = C.PRODUCT_ID
                 GROUP BY A.CUSTOMER_ID, A.NAME, C.DESCRIPTION) X,

  • I am running the most upto date version yet it still tells me that I am not? Why?

    Hi, on the home page just under the google search bar in the middle of the page I keep getting the message that I am not running the latest version of Firefox and not getting the most from the web. When I click the link it takes me to the advert for the Android version and the latest version of Firefox. I have the latest version and just in case I downloaded it again, and yet, I still get this little message saying I dont have the latest version. Its not a problem for me but I just wondered why my computer is not picking up that I have the latest version. I also have the computer set so that it takes all upgrades to the software.

  • Where can I change the font settings for the name of the month in iPhoto's calendar project?

    where can I change the font settings for the name of the month in iPhoto's calendar project?  I just ordered two copies of a calendar I designed in iPhoto and was surprised to find that the calendar's months were printing in something like an Arial 10 pt font.  On previous calendars I've printer via iPhoto and Apple, the font was much larger.  I've tried every menu option in iPhoto and the Calendar Project program and can't find where this is modifyable. Which leads me to ask, what the heck happened here in the first place?  I did not consciously change the default.
    I do remember that I got some notice when I first tried to print the calendar about the default font having been changed, but I don't know how this could have happened, and I didn't know what impact that had on the calendar until it was delivered.  I typically print about a dozen annual calendars but won't buy another until I've got a handle on this problem.  For the most part, the rest of the calendar is okay.
    As a P.S. is there anywhere where one can get a power user's manual, or instruction on iPhoto?

    "Maximum" and "12" usually refer to compression (influencing image quality and jpeg file size in bytes); and as Curt wrote, dpi is meaningless for display by and viewing in web browsers.  (It could be a different matter if you are uploading the jpeg files for someone to download from the web to print.)
    What are the sequence of steps that you and your batch processing take from Bridge?
    You can use call Photoshop's Image Processor from Bridge to create the jpeg files  (Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor).  In the Image Processor you can set jpeg compression, pixel dimensions if desired, also convert to sRGB (good idea for web display).  In my experience the image processor leaves unchanged whatever dpi is set in the source file; or, if none there as might be for a pdf, it will set the dpi value in your New Document Preset Print Resolution (from your Photoshop Units & Rulers preferences).

  • What is the rationale behind the "Adobe Standard" color calibration profile?

    Hi! I'm trying to figure out how to make the most of the various color calibration profiles Adobe offers for my cameras with Lightroom 5. I do understand the purpose of the camera-specific options--they're designed to help approach camera JPEG processing mode colors. And they work wonderfully--they're very helpful!
    But I don't really understand the purpose of the "Adobe Standard" calibration option. What is it for? Why does it look the way it looks? Has it been designed to ease certain processing goals? To enhance certain colors or tonal combinations? Is it designed to be more accurate than the manufacturer profiles in some way? What can I do with "Adobe Standard" that I can't do with one of the camera-specific calibration options?
    I would find it *extremely* helpful if someone who's involved with the engineering behind Lightroom's color (or anyone else who's especially knowledgeable about Lightroom's design) might talk a little bit about why "Adobe Standard" looks the way it looks. What's it for? To what purposes can I leverage it?
    Thanks so much!

    Adobe Stadnard is the name for the individual profiles Adobe builds for each camera it receives. A new camera ships, Adobe gets their hands on one and builds a profile with that sample. It isn't suppose to mimic the in-camera JPEG settings, I don't believe it's supposed to mimic anything but instead produce what is (and quotes are super important in this context) the most 'accurate' color response from the target they use to create the profile. But here's the rub. Not all cameras from the same make and model behave identically. Adobe simply can't get piles of the same body and build then average that response. So they provide a means for you to build your own custom DNG camera profile and for differing illuminates. So if you want to leverage it, you'd get a target (MacBeth 24 patch, X-rite Passport) and build your own custom profile. It can really help depending on how your sensor deviates from the sensor Adobe got to build their profiles.

  • Help me convince my dad to choose the ipad over the surface?

    hi,
    my dads work wants to get him a tablet. he can choose the microsoft surface or the ipad. he is leaning toward the surface. can you tell me some reasons you like/perfer the ipad over the surface?
    Thanks,
    Austin

    Take your dad to best buy and test drive each device. Get the feel and idea of each one.
    Honestly, each device has it's own plusses and minuses. the iPad is far more established. You can very certainly have an iTunes account without a credit card, Mine is. I use iTunes gift cards to load it to purchase things I want (largely apps)
    If he's going to want a lot of online content and a well established library, then he'll want the iPad. iTunes has spent years building itself up. there are millions of apps (one could argue that a lot of them are junk, but that's a relative term so YMMV on that one)
    The surface is new. It is largely untested. But, like Android, if he has the tech know how to tweak or fiddle, then it may be for him. The surface and android devices do have more 'freedom' to them, in that they seem to have less restrictions in what you can do. However that freedom can lead a person to doing something they may not really want to do. And yes, the surface is less than a year old and who knows if it'll be around in a year.
    I think if you want a comfortable well established and more controlled environment, the iPad works for that. there will be extra expenses, such as cases and keyboards (my money is on your dad having issues iwth the onscreen keyboard, many older individuals do, so you'll likely need a bluetooth keyboard)
    If he wants to get all his content from Apple, then he's fine.
    If he wants something different, something more customizable or expandable (the surface can accomodate extending its memory via micro SD cards the iPad's memory cannot be expanded) then maybe he'll want to play with the surface.
    You will find less apps with the surface. Obviously it's app store is only a few months old.
    Windows 8 is very different. I have it on my laptop and there is a learning curve. Of course, if he's never worked with an apple device then there is a learning curve with the iPad too.
    I would say, let him experiment with both and see which one works for him. The only 'right' answer is the one he likes the most and the one he wants to spend the next couple of years using.
