Injection Support for JSF 1.2 Managed Beans
Finished adding injection support in JSF managed beans. Currently, I have
only tested it with tomcat 6.x and Sun JSF RI v 1.2 (Mojarra).
Thanks DBlevins for very patiently answering all of my questions on IRC.
Any feedback is welcome. If you want to try other combinations like
icefaces, ajax4jsf, richfaces, myfaces, etc also, then that would really be
nice. Other versions of tomcat would also be interesting to get feedback on
(v 5.5 )
How do you test it:-
1. Add jsf-api.jar, jsf-impl.jar and jstl-1.2.jar to <<tomcat-install>>/lib
2. Create a web-app
3. Create a EJB inside the web-app
4. Create a JSF managedbean and using annotations inject the EJB into a
field/property etc. Make sure to provide the jndi name in the annotation
5. create a JSP and use the managed bean
6. send a request to the JSP
If you can perform step 1, and then just need a web-app to play with, then
you can download it from http://people.apache.org/~kmalhi/dummy.war
The src directory in the above war contains the source code.
Once you drop the dummy.war inside <<TOMCAT_INSTALL>>/webapps, you can then
test it at
http://localhost:8080/dummy/index.faces
If you can add two numbers and can also see a greeting on the last line,
that means it works.

Forgot one step, make sure to deploy in the latest openejb-tomcat-webapp.war
inside the <<TOMCAT_INSTALL>>/webapp first

Yes, now the change works with jsf jars in WEB-INF/lib. Copying to
server-wide directory is not required anymore.

Duh! . Can I use lack of sleep as an excuse for my comment about JSF RI
earlier ;) .

Yes, it does. JSF is just another (web) application framework so
WEB-INF/lib is the preferred place. When in the full-blown application
server like Geronimo no JSF libs are necessary (they should even be
ignored).

This is probably a question for one of the D's to answer ;) . I have not
tested with the jars in the WEB-INF/lib, but my guess would be that it may
not work with the jars in the WEB-INF/lib (this may be more of a JSF RI
thing than an openejb tomcat thing). Does JSF RI work if you put stuff in
the WEB-INF lib (I am talking about a regular JSF webapp here -- without
installing openejb-tomcat-webapp.war)

Nice!

Will the change work with these jsf jars in WEB-INF/lib? Is copying to
the server-wide directory required?
