Developing with JavaServer Faces Technology

The application developer’s responsibility is to program the server-side objects of a JavaServer Faces application. These objects include backing beans, converters, event handlers, and validators.

The application developer's responsibilities include:

Programming properties and methods of a backing bean
Localizing an application
Creating custom converters and validators
Implementing event listeners
Writing backing bean methods to perform navigation processing and validation, and handle events

This chapter provides an overview of the new Bean validation feature as well the usual server-side programming.
