[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: Project setup with Icefaces

[PatrickMadden]

I would download the latest 1.1.0.GA of Seam. I too was just using the CR2 version. As with any software there are a few other hoops you will have to jump through.

My faces-config.xml has the following:

  | 
  | <faces-config>
  | 
  |     <managed-bean>
  |         <managed-bean-name>highlight</managed-bean-name>
  |         <managed-bean-class>com.icesoft.faces.context.effects.Highlight</managed-bean-class>
  |         <managed-bean-scope>application</managed-bean-scope>
  |     </managed-bean>
  |     
  |     <application>
  |         <message-bundle>messages</message-bundle>
  |         <!-- view-handler>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</view-handler -->
  |         <view-handler>com.icesoft.faces.facelets.D2DSeamFaceletViewHandler</view-handler>
  |     </application>
  | 
  |     <!-- Seam transaction management -->
  |     <lifecycle>
  |         <phase-listener>org.jboss.seam.jsf.TransactionalSeamPhaseListener</phase-listener>
  |     </lifecycle>
  | </faces-config>
  | 

My application.xml has the following:


  | 
  | <application>
  | 	<display-name>Seam Generated Application</display-name>
  |     <description>created by seam-gen</description>
  | 
  | 	<module>
  | 		<web>
  | 			<web-uri>CloosterWeb20.war</web-uri>
  | 			<context-root>/Clooster</context-root>
  | 		</web>
  | 	</module>
  | 	<module>
  | 	    <java>jboss-seam.jar</java>
  | 	</module>	
  | 	<module>

  | 	</module>	
  | 	<module>

  |     </module>
  |     <module>
  |         <java>el-ri.jar</java>
  |     </module>	
  | </application>
  |

When upgrading from CR2 to GA I just made sure to copy my seam-gen/build.properties to from my CR2 to GA directory. I also then copied the GA jboss-seam*.jar (minus the sem-gen.jar) to my own eclipse project's lib directory.

I'm no expert, in fact I'm a seam newbie. Only been using it for 2 weeks max. Regardless, I was able to get my project running with Icefaces. You'll notice a pretty significant difference when jboss starts up. I'm using 4.0.5 GA. 

Hope this is of help.
