+ Referencing EJB3 Session Beans from non-EJB3 Beans
+ </title>
+
+ <para>
+ JBoss Application Server 5 fully supports the entire Java 5 Enterprise Edition specification. JBoss Application Server 4.2.2 implemented EJB3 functionality by way of an EJB MBean container running as a plugin in the JBoss Application Server. This had certain implications for application development.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The EJB3 plugin injects references to an EntityManager and @EJB references from one EJB object to another. However this support is limited to the EJB3 MBean and the JAR files it manages. Any JAR files which are loaded from a WAR (such as Servlets, JSF backing beans, and so forth) do not undergo this processing. The Java 5 Enterprise Edition standard specifies that a Servlet can reference a Session Bean through an @EJB annotated reference, this was not implemented in JBoss Application Server 4.2.2.

+<chapter id="Sample_JSF_EJB3_Application">
+ <title>Sample JSF-EJB3 Application</title>
+ <para>
+ We use a simple "TODO" application to show how JSF and EJB3 work together in a web application. The "TODO" application works like this: You can create a new 'todo' task item using the "Create" web form. Each 'todo' item has a 'title' and a 'description'. When you submit the form, the application saves your task to a relational database. Using the application, you can view all 'todo' items, edit/delete an existing 'todo' item and update the task in the database.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The sample application comprises the following components:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Entity objects - These objects represent the data model; the properties in the object are mapped to column values in relational database tables.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ JSF web pages - The web interface used to capture input data and display result data. The data fields on these web pages are mapped to the data model via the JSF Expression Language (EL).
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ EJB3 Session Bean - This is where the functionality is implemented. We make use of a Stateless Session Bean.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ </para>
+ <section id="Sample_JSF_EJB3_Application-Data_Model">
+ <title>Data Model</title>
+ <para>
+ Let's take a look at the contents of the Data Model represented by the <literal>Todo</literal> class in the <literal>Todo.java</literal> file. Each instance of the <literal>Todo</literal> class corresponds to a row in the relational database table. The 'Todo' class has three properties: id, title and description. Each of these correspond to a column in the database table.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The 'Entity class' to 'Database Table' mapping information is specified using EJB3 Annotations in the 'Todo' class. This eliminates the need for XML configuration and makes it a lot clearer. The <literal>@Entity</literal> annotation defines the <literal>Todo</literal> class as an Entity Bean. The <literal>@Id</literal> and <literal>@GeneratedValue</literal> annotations on the <literal>id</literal> property indicate that the <literal>id</literal> column is the primary key and that the server automatically generates its value for each <literal>Todo</literal> object saved into the database.

+ EJB 3.0 is one of the major improvements introduced with Java EE 5.0. It aims at reducing the complexity of older versions of EJB and simplifies Enterprise Java development and deployment. You will notice that to declare a class as a 'Session Bean' you simply have to annotate it. Using annotations eliminates the complexity involved with too many deployment descriptors. Also the only interface an EJB3 Session Bean requires is a business interface that declares all the business methods that must be implemented by the bean.

+ Fundamentally, the JBoss architecture consists of the microcontainer, bootstrap beans loaded into the micrcontainer, a collection of deployers for loading various deployment types, and various mcbean(-jboss-beans.xml) and legacy mbean(jboss-service.xml) deployments.
+ This makes it easy to assemble different configurations and gives you the flexibility to tailor them to meet your requirements.

+ You don’t have to run a large, monolithic server all the time; you can remove the components you don’t need (which can also reduce the server startup time considerably) and you can also integrate additional services into JBoss by writing your own MBeans. You certainly do not need to do this to be able to run standard Java EE 5 applications though.

+ The <filename class="directory">deploy</filename> directory contains the hot-deployable services (those which can be added to or removed from the running server). It also contains applications for the current server configuration. You deploy your application code by placing application packages (JAR, WAR and EAR files) in the <filename class="directory">deploy</filename> directory.

+ <title>Server Structure</title>
+ <para>
+ Now that you’ve downloaded JBoss and have run the server for the first time, the next thing you will want to know is how the installation is laid out and what goes where. At first glance there seems to be a lot of stuff in there, and it’s not obvious what you need to look at and what you can safely ignore for the time being. To remedy that, we’ll explore the server directory structure, locations of the key configuration files, log files, deployment and so on. It’s worth familiarizing yourself with the layout at this stage as it will help you understand the JBoss service architecture so that you’ll be able to find your way around when it comes to deploying your own applications.

+ <title>The JMX Console</title>
+ <para>
+ When the JBoss Server is running, you can get a live view of the server by going to the JMX console application at <ulink url="http://localhost:8080/jmx-console"></ulink>. You should see something similar to <xref linkend="The_JMX_Console-View_of_the_JMX_Management_Console_Web_Application" />.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The JMX Console is the JBoss Management Console which provides a raw view of the JMX MBeans which make up the server. They can provide a lot of information about the running server and allow you to modify its configuration, start and stop components and so on.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ For example, find the <literal>service=JNDIView</literal> link and click on it. This particular MBean provides a service to allow you to view the structure of the JNDI namespaces within the server. Now find the operation called <literal>list</literal> near the bottom of the MBean view page and click the <literal>invoke</literal> button. The operation returns a view of the current names bound into the JNDI tree, which is very useful when you start deploying your own applications and want to know why you can’t resolve a particular EJB name.

+ <imagedata align="center" fileref="images/jmx-console.png" />
+ </imageobject>
+ </mediaobject>
+ </figure>
+ <para>
+ Look at some of the other MBeans and their listed operations; try changing some of the configuration attributes and see what happens. With a very few exceptions, none of the changes made through the console are persistent. The original configuration will be reloaded when you restart JBoss, so you can experiment freely without doing any permanent damage.
+ </para>
+ <note>
+ <para>
+ If you installed JBoss using the graphical installer, the JMX Console will prompt you for a username and password before you can access it. If you installed using other modes, you can still configure JMX Security manually. We will show you how to secure your console in <xref linkend="Basic_Configuration_Issues-Security_Service"/>.

+ <title>Hot-deployment of services in JBoss</title>
+ <para>
+ Hot-deployable services are those which can be added to or removed from the running server. These are placed in the <literal>JBOSS_DIST/jboss-as/server/<instance-name>/deploy</literal> directory. Let’s have a look at a practical example of hot-deployment of services in JBoss before we go on to look at server configuration issues in more detail.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Start JBoss if it isn’t already running and take a look at the <literal>server/production/deploy</literal> directory. Remove the <literal>mail-service.xml</literal> file and watch the output from the server:
+<programlisting>13:10:05,235 INFO [MailService] Mail service 'java:/Mail' removed from JNDI</programlisting>
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Then replace the file and watch JBoss re-install the service: <programlisting>13:58:54,331 INFO [MailService] Mail Service bound to java:/Mail</programlisting>
+ This is hot-deployment in action.
+ </para>
+ </section>
+
+ <section id="The_JBoss_Server___A_Quick_Tour-Basic_Configuration_Issues">
+ <title>Basic Configuration Issues</title>
+ <para>
+ Now that we have examined the JBoss server, we will take a look at some of the main configuration files and what they are used for. All paths are relative to the server configuration directory (<filename class="directory">server/default</filename>, for example).
+ </para>
+ <section id="The_JBoss_Server___A_Quick_Tour-Bootstrap_Configuration">
+ <title>Bootstrap Configuration</title>
+ <para>The microcontainer bootstrap configuration is described by the <filename>conf/bootstrap.xml</filename> and the <filename>conf/bootstrap/*.xml</filename> it references. Its expected that the number of bootstrap beans will be reduced in the future. Its not expected that you would need to edit the bootstrap configuration files for a typical installation.</para>

+ <section id="Basic_Configuration_Issues-Core_Services">
+ <title>Legacy Core Services</title>
+ <para>
+ The legacy core services specified in the <filename>conf/jboss-service.xml</filename> file are started just after server starts up the microcontainer.

+ </para>
+ <note>
+ <para>
+ Eventually this file will be dropped as the services are converted to microcontainer beans or mbeans that are deployed as deploy directory services.</para></note>
+ <para>
+ Note that because the mbeans definition had nested comments, we had to comment out the mbean in two sections, leaving the original comment as it was.
+ </para>
+<programlisting>
+<!-- Section 1 commented out

+-->
+
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ If you then restart JBoss, you will see that the <literal>JNDIView</literal> service no longer appears in the JMX Management Console (JMX Console) listing. In practice, you should rarely, if ever, need to modify this file, though there is nothing to stop you adding extra MBean entries in here if you want to. The alternative is to use a separate file in the <filename class="directory">deploy</filename> directory, which allows your service to be hot deployable.

+
+ <section id="Basic_Configuration_Issues-Logging_Service">
+ <title>Logging Service</title>
+ <para>
+ In JBoss <literal>log4j</literal> is used for logging. If you are not familiar with the <literal>log4j</literal> package and would like to use it in your applications, you can read more about it at the Jakarta web site (<ulink url="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/"></ulink>).
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Logging is controlled from a central <filename>conf/jboss-log4j.xml</filename> file. This file defines a set of appenders specifying the log files, what categories of messages should go there, the message format and the level of filtering. By default, JBoss produces output to both the console and a log file (<filename>log/server.log</filename>).
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ There are 6 basic log levels used: <literal>TRACE</literal>, <literal>DEBUG</literal>, <literal>INFO</literal>, <literal>WARN</literal>, <literal>ERROR</literal> and <literal>FATAL</literal>. The logging threshold on the console is <literal>INFO</literal>, which means that you will see informational messages, warning messages and error messages on the console but not general debug messages. In contrast, there is no threshold set for the <filename>server.log</filename> file, so all generated logging messages will be logged there.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ If things are going wrong and there doesn’t seem to be any useful information in the console, always check the <filename>server.log</filename> file to see if there are any debug messages which might help you to track down the problem. However, be aware that just because the logging threshold allows debug messages to be displayed, that doesn't mean that all of JBoss will produce detailed debug information for the log file. You will also have to boost the logging limits set for individual categories. Take the following category for example.
+ </para>
+<programlisting><!-- Limit JBoss categories to INFO -->
+<category name="org.jboss">
+ <priority value="<emphasis role="bold">INFO</emphasis>"/>
+</category>
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ This limits the level of logging to <literal>INFO</literal> for all JBoss classes, apart from those which have more specific overrides provided. If you were to change this to <literal>DEBUG</literal>, it would produce much more detailed logging output.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ As another example, let’s say you wanted to set the output from the container-managed persistence engine to <literal>DEBUG</literal> level and to redirect it to a separate file, <filename>cmp.log</filename>, in order to analyze the generated SQL commands. You would add the following code to the <filename>conf/jboss-log4j.xml</filename> file:
+ </para>
+<programlisting><appender name="CMP" class="org.jboss.logging.appender.RollingFileAppender">
+ <errorHandler class="org.jboss.logging.util.OnlyOnceErrorHandler"/>
+ <param name="File" value="${jboss.server.home.dir}/log/cmp.log"/>
+ <param name="Append" value="false"/>
+ <param name="MaxFileSize" value="500KB"/>
+ <param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="1"/>
+
+ <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
+ <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%c] %m%n"/>
+ </layout>
+</appender>
+
+<category name="org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp">
+ <priority value="DEBUG" />
+ <appender-ref ref="CMP"/>
+</category>
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ This creates a new file appender and specifies that it should be used by the logger (or category) for the package <literal>org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp</literal>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The file appender is set up to produce a new log file every day rather than producing a new one every time you restart the server or writing to a single file indefinitely. The current log file is <filename>cmp.log</filename>. Older files have the date they were written added to their filenames. Please note that the <filename class="directory">log</filename> directory also contains HTTP request logs which are produced by the web container.

+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Almost every aspect of the JBoss server can be controlled through the JMX Console, so it is important to make sure that, at the very least, the application is password protected. Otherwise, any remote user could completely control your server. To protect it, we will add a security domain to cover the application.
+ <!--<footnote><para>

+ The JMX Console isn't the only web based management interface to JBoss. There is also the Web Console. Although it's a Java applet, the corresponding web application can be secured in the same way as the JMX Console. The Web Console is in the file <filename>deploy/management/console-mgr.sar/web-console.war.</filename>. The only difference is that the Web Console is provided as a simple WAR file instead of using the exploded directory structure that the JMX Console did. The only real difference between the two is that editing the files inside the WAR file is a bit more cumbersome.

+ <title>Using other Databases</title>
+ <para>
+ In the previous chapters, we’ve been using the JBossAS default datasource in our applications. This datasource is configured to use the embedded Hypersonic database instance shipped by default with the distribution. This datasource is bound to the JNDI name <literal>java:/DefaultDS</literal> and its descriptor is named <literal>hsqldb-ds.xml</literal> under the deploy directory
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Having a database included with JBossAS is very convenient for running the server and examples out-of-the-box. However, this database is not a production quality database and as such should not be used with enterprise-class deployments. As a consequence of this JBoss Support does not provide any official support for Hypersonic.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In this chapter we will explain in details how to configure and deploy a datasource to connect JBossAS to the most popular database servers available on the market today.
+ </para>
+
+ <section id="Using_other_Databases-DataSource_Configuration_Files">
+ <title>DataSource Configuration Files</title>
+ <para>
+ Datasource configuration file names end with the suffix <literal>-ds.xml</literal> so that they will be recognized correctly by the JCA deployer. The <literal>docs/example/jca</literal> directory contains sample files for a wide selection of databases and it is a good idea to use one of these as a starting point. For a full description of the configuration format, the best place to look is the DTD file <literal>docs/dtd/jboss-ds_1_5.dtd</literal>. Additional documentation on the files and the JBoss JCA implementation can also be found in the JBoss Application Server Guide available at <ulink url="http://labs.jboss.com/projects/docs/"/>.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Local transaction datasources are configured using the <literal>local-tx-datasource</literal> element and XA-compliant ones using <literal>xa-tx-datasource</literal>. The example file <literal>generic-ds.xml</literal> shows how to use both types and also some of the other elements that are available for things like connection pool configuration. Examples of both local and XA configurations are available for Oracle, DB2 and Informix.
+ </para>
+
+
+
+ <para>
+ If you look at the example files <literal> firebird-ds.xml</literal>, <literal> facets-ds.xml</literal> and <literal>sap3-ds.xml</literal>, you’ll notice that they have a completely different format, with the root element being <literal>connection-factories</literal> rather than <literal>datasources</literal>. These use an alternative, more generic JCA configuration syntax used with a pre-packaged JCA resource adapter. The syntax is not specific to datasource configuration and is used, for example, in the <literal>jms-ds.xml</literal> file to configure the JMS resource adapter.
+ </para>

+ <para>
+ When testing a newly configured datasource we suggest using some very basic JDBC client code embedded in a JSP page.
+ First of all, you should create an exploded WAR archive under the deploy directory which is simply a folder named "<literal>jdbcclient.war</literal>".
+In this folder, create a text document named client.jsp and paste the code below:
+<programlisting><![CDATA[
+<%@page contentType="text/html"
+ import="java.util.*,javax.naming.*,javax.sql.DataSource,java.sql.*"
+ %>
+ <%
+
+ DataSource ds = null;
+ Connection con = null;
+ PreparedStatement pr = null;
+ InitialContext ic;
+ try {
+ ic = new InitialContext();
+ ds = (DataSource)ic.lookup( "java:/DefaultDS" );
+ con = ds.getConnection();
+ pr = con.prepareStatement("SELECT USERID, PASSWD FROM JMS_USERS");
+ ResultSet rs = pr.executeQuery();
+ while (rs.next()) {
+ out.println("<br> " +rs.getString("USERID") + " | " +rs.getString("PASSWD"));
+ }
+ rs.close();
+ pr.close();
+ }catch(Exception e){
+ out.println("Exception thrown " +e);
+ }finally{
+ if(con != null){
+ con.close();
+ }
+}]]> %> </programlisting>
+
+Open up a web browser and hit the url: <ulink url="http://localhost:8080/jdbcclient/client.jsp"/>.
+A list of users and password should show up as a result of the jdbc query:
+<screen>
+dynsub | dynsub
+guest | guest
+j2ee | j2ee
+john | needle
+nobody | nobody
+</screen>

+ <title>Using Seam</title>
+ <para>
+ JBoss Seam is a framework that provides the glue between the new EJB3 and JSF frameworks that are part of the Java EE 5.0 standard. In fact, the name Seam refers to the seamless manner in which it enables developers to use these two frameworks in an integrated manner. Seam automates many of the common tasks, and makes extensive use of annotations to reduce the amount of xml code that needs to be written. The overall effect is to significantly reduce the total amount of coding that needs to be done.

+ <section id="Using_Seam_Data_Model">
+ <title>
+ Data Model
+ </title>
+
+ <para>
+ Let's start off our examination of the Seam implementation in the same way, by examining how the Data Model is implemented. This is done in the <literal>Todo.java</literal> file.
+ </para>
+
+ <programlisting>@Entity
+ at Name("todo")
+public class Todo implements Serializable {
+
+ private long id;
+ private String title;
+ private String description;
+
+ public Todo () {
+ title ="";
+ description ="";
+ }
+
+ @Id @GeneratedValue
+ public long getId() { return id;}
+ public void setId(long id) { this.id = id; }
+
+ @NotNull
+ public String getTitle() { return title; }
+ public void setTitle(String title) {this.title = title;}
+
+ @NotNull
+ @Length(max=250)
+ public String getDescription() { return description; }
+ public void setDescription(String description) {
+ this.description = description;
+ }
+
+}</programlisting>
+
+ <para>
+ The <literal>@Entity</literal> annotation defines the class as an EJB3 entity bean, and tells the container to map the <literal>Todo</literal> class to a relational database table. Each property of the class will become a column in the table. Each instance of the class will become a row in this table. Since we have not used the <literal>@Table</literal> annotation, Seam's "configuration by exception" default will name the table after the class.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <literal>@Entity</literal> and <literal>@Table</literal> are both EJB3 annotations, and are not specific to Seam. It is possible to use Seam completely with POJOs (Plain Old Java Objects) without any EJB3-specific annotations. However, EJB3 brings a lot of advantages to the table, including container managed security, message-driven components, transaction and component level persistence context, and <literal>@PersistenceContext</literal> injection, which we will encounter a little further on.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <literal>@Name</literal> annotation is specific to Seam, and defines the string name for Seam to use to register the Entity Bean. This will be the default name for the relational database table. Each component in a Seam application must have a unique name. In the other components in the Seam framework, such as JSF web pages and session beans, you can reference the managed <literal>Todo</literal> bean using this name. If no instance of this class exists when it is referenced from another component, then Seam will instantiate one.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <literal>@Id</literal> annotation defines a primary key <literal>id</literal> field for the component. <literal>@GeneratedValue</literal> specifies that the server will automatically generate this value for the component when it is saved to the database.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Seam provides support for model-based constraints defined using Hibernate Validator, although Hibernate does not have to be the object persister used. The <literal>@NotNull</literal> annotation is a validation constraint that requires this property to have a value before the component can be persisted into the database. Using this annotation allows the validation to be enforced by the JSF code at the view level, without having to specify the exact validation constraint in the JSF code.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ At this point the only apparent difference between the Seam version and the EJB3/JSF version of the app is the inclusion of the validator annotation <literal>@NotNull</literal>, and the <literal>@Name</literal> annotation. However, while the EJB3/JSF version of this application requires a further <literal>TodoBean</literal> class to be manually coded and managed in order to handle the interaction between the <literal>Todo</literal> class and the web interface, when using Seam the Seam framework takes care of this work for us. We'll see how this is done in practice as we examine the implementation of the user interface.

+ <para>
+ The first thing that is different here is the Java Server Facelet code at the beginning, which works with the <literal>@NotNull</literal> validation constraint of our <literal>todo</literal> class to enforce and indicate invalid input to the user.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Also notice here that rather than requiring the use of a <literal>TodoBean</literal> class as we did in the EJB3/JSF example we back the form directly with a <literal>Todo</literal> entity bean. When this page is called, JSF asks Seam to resolve the variable <literal>todo</literal> due to JSF EL references such as <literal>#{todo.title}</literal>. Since there is no value already bound to that variable name, Seam will instantiate an entity bean of the <literal>todo</literal> class and return it to JSF, after storing it in the Seam context. The Seam context replaces the need for an intermediary bean.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The form input values are validated against the Hibernate Validator constraints specified in the <literal>todo</literal> class. JSF will redisplay the page if the constraints are violated, or it will bind the form input values to the <literal>Todo</literal> entity bean.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Entity beans shouldn't do database access or transaction management, so we can't use the <literal>Todo</literal> entity bean as a JSF action listener. Instead, creation of a new todo item in the database is accomplished by calling the <literal>persist</literal> method of a <literal>TodoDao</literal> session bean. When JSF requests Seam to resolve the variable <literal>todoDao</literal> through the JSF EL expression <literal>#{todoDao.persist}</literal>, Seam will either instantiate an object if one does not already exist, or else pass the existing stateful <literal>todoDao</literal> object from the Seam context. Seam will intercept the <literal>persist</literal> method call and inject the <literal>todo</literal> entity from the session context.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Let's have a look at the <literal>TodoDao</literal> class (defined in <literal>TodoDao.java</literal>) to see how this injection capability is implemented.

+ <section id="Using_Seam_Session_Bean">

+ Data Access using a Session Bean

+
+ <para>
+ Let's go through a listing of the code for the <literal>TodoDao</literal> class.
+ </para>
+
+ <programlisting>@Stateful
+ at Name("todoDao")
+public class TodoDao implements TodoDaoInt {
+
+ @In (required=false) @Out (required=false)
+ private Todo todo;
+
+ @PersistenceContext (type=EXTENDED)

+
+ // Injected from pages.xml

+ }
+
+ public String update () {
+ return "updated";
+ }
+
+ @Remove @Destroy
+ public void destroy() {}
+
+}</programlisting>
+
+ <para>
+ First of all notice that this is a stateful session bean. Seam can use both stateful and stateless session beans, the two most common types of EJB3 beans.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <literal>@In</literal> and <literal>@Out</literal> annotations define an attribute that is injected by Seam. The attribute is injected to this object or from this object to another via a Seam context variable named <literal>todo</literal>, a reference to the Seam registered name of our <literal>Todo</literal> class defined in <literal>Todo.java</literal>.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <literal>@PersistenceContext</literal> annotation injects the EJB3 Entity manager, allowing this object to persist objects to the database. Because this is a stateful session bean and the <literal>PersistenceContext</literal> type is set to <literal>EXTENDED</literal>, the same Entity Manager instance is used until the Remove method of the session bean is called. The database to be used (a <literal>persistence-unit</literal>) is defined in the file <filename>resources/META-INF/persistence.xml</filename>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Note that this session bean has simultaneous access to context associated with web request (the form values of the <literal>todo</literal> object), and state held in transactional resources (the <literal>EntityManager</literal>). This is a break from traditional J2EE architectures, but Seam does not force you to work this way. You can use more traditional forms of application layering if you wish.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <literal>@DataModel</literal> annotation initializes the <literal>todos</literal> property, which will be outjected or "exposed" to the view. The <literal>@Factory</literal> annotated method performs the work of generating the <literal>todos</literal> list, and is called by Seam if it attempts to access the exposed <literal>DataModel</literal> property and finds it to be null. Notice the absence of property access methods for the <literal>todos</literal> property. Seam takes care of this for you automatically.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Let's take a look at the JSF code that we use for displaying and editing the list of todos, to get an idea of how to use these interfaces in practice.
+ </para>
+
+ </section>
+
+ <section id="Using_Seam_Display_and_Edit">
+ <title>
+ JSF Web Pages - todos.xhtml and edit.xhtml
+ </title>
+
+ <para>
+ Using the <literal>DataModel</literal> exposed property of the Session Bean it becomes trivial to produce a list of todos:
+ </para>
+
+ <programlisting><h:form>
+
+<h:dataTable value="#{todos}" var="todo">
+ <h:column>
+ <f:facet name="header">Title</f:facet>
+ #{todo.title}
+ </h:column>
+ <h:column>
+ <f:facet name="header">Description</f:facet>
+ #{todo.description}
+ </h:column>
+ <h:column>
+ <a href="edit.seam?tid=#{todo.id}">Edit</a>
+ </h:column>
+</h:dataTable>
+
+<center>
+ <h:commandButton action="create"
+ value="Create New Todo" type="submit"/>
+</center>
+
+</h:form>
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>
+ When the JSF variable resolver encounters <literal>{#todos}</literal> and requests <literal>todos</literal>, Seam finds that there is no "todos" component in the current scope, so it calls the @Factory("todos") method to make one. The todos object is then outjected once the factory method is done since it is annotated with the @DataModel annotation. <!--Seam responses by finding the <literal>todos</literal> <literal>DataModel</literal> registered with it, and outjecting that from the bean.-->
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Constructing the view for the edit page is similarly straight forward:
+ </para>
+
+ <programlisting><h:form id="edit">
+
+<f:facet name="beforeInvalidField">
+ <h:graphicImage styleClass="errorImg" value="error.png"/>
+</f:facet>

+<h:commandButton type="submit" id="delete" value="Delete"
+ action="#{todoDao.delete}"/>
+</h:form>
+ </programlisting>
+
+ <para>
+ Here we see the same factors in play. JSF validation code taking advantage of the validation constraints defined in our Entity Bean, and the use of the <literal>todoDao</literal> Session Bean's <literal>update</literal> and <literal>delete</literal> methods to update the database.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The call from <filename>todos.xhtml</filename>: <literal>edit.seam?tid=#{todo.id}</literal> causes Seam to create a <literal>todoDao</literal> and set it's <literal>id</literal> property to <literal>tid</literal>. Setting its <literal>id</literal> property causes the <literal>todoDao</literal> to retrieve the appropriate record from the database.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The functionality that allows the edit page to be called with a parameter in this way is implemented through <literal>pages.xml</literal>. Let's have a look at the <literal>pages.xml</literal> file and how it is used by Seam applications.

+ Xml Files

+
+ <para>
+ Seam drastically reduces the amount of xml coding that needs to be done. One file that is of interest is the <literal>pages.xml</literal>, packaged in the <literal>app.war</literal> file's <literal>WEB-INF</literal> directory. This file is available in the <literal>resources/WEB-INF</literal> directory in the source code bundle. The <literal>pages.xml</literal> file is used to define page descriptions including Seam page parameters (HTTP <literal>GET</literal> parameters), page actions, page navigation rules, error pages etc. <!--This file defines a number of attributes that affect global behaviour of the application.--> Among other things it can be used in a Seam application to define exception handlers and redirections.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In the case of our sample application we are using it to define a Seam page parameter. The <literal>pages.xml</literal> in this example contains the following code:
+ </para>
+
+ <programlisting><page view-id="/edit.xhtml">
+ <param name="tid" value="#{todoDao.id}"
+ converterId="javax.faces.Long"/>
+</page></programlisting>
+ <para>
+ This defines a parameter named <literal>tid</literal> for the <literal>edit.xhtml</literal> page. When the <literal>edit.xhtml</literal> page is loaded, the HTTP <literal>GET</literal> request parameter <literal>tid</literal> is converted to a <literal>Long</literal> value and assigned to the <literal>id</literal> property of the <literal>todoDao</literal> object. You can have as many page parameters as required to bind HTTP <literal>GET</literal> request parameters to the back-end components in your application.
