Web application, packages (module)

Question

Hi, i'm new at JSF and i want to know which package distribution i should use for my web application. When i made desktop applications i had different packages (in order to use MVC pattern) like a
beanPackage where i stored my POJOS,
a businessPackage where i stored the logic of the business,
a viewPackage where i stored the gui,
and the daoPackage for my data access objects.
Now in a web application using JSF what package shoud i use? there are backing Beans, where do i put them? do they keep (business logic) what kind of package distribution should i use for my web application?.

Answer 1

hm, its not good when two different projects have bidirectional dependencies - in my opinion that means they should be part of the same code base and thus the same project.
A possible solution I see is:
- take the part that the 'bean' project depends on in the web project out of the web project and put it in the bean project itself
- add the bean project as a project dependency to the web project (thus bringing back the logic you just moved to the bean project)
You can manage library and project dependencies in the project properties. Right click on the project name in the tree view to get a menu that holds the function to do that (cannot remember its exact name right now and I don't have Netbeans handy).
