In November 2009 a completly revised version of our JSF book with the title "JavaServer Faces 2.0 - Grundlagen und erweiterte Konzepte" was published at the dpunkt.Verlag (in German). We are glad that the book is received with great interest. So far more than 600 copies have been sold.


Detailed information can be found here: JavaServer Faces 2.0 (dpunkt.Verlag).

JSFdays2010 have been scheduled for February 2010, 23rd to 25th.

Due to the huge success of the JSFdays2009, the international JEE- and JSF-conference, the JSFdays, will take place again in Vienna.

We are looking forward to seeing you at the JSFdays2010.
You can already register at my ticket to the the JSFdays2010.

IRIAN released a revised and first time public, online and free version of the JavaServerFaces (JSF) documentation "JSF@Work". It covers the usage of the technology, examples and best practises in using JSF and other frameworks.

JSF@Work is available (currently only in german language) at: JSF@Work

The presentation slides (German) as well as the examples of the eJUG presentation "Metadatenbasierte Validierung" are available at the "Bean-Validation (JSR 303) Examples" section of resources.irian.at

The second milestone of the next MyFaces ExtVal release is available in the Apache snapshot repository.

In comparison to milestone 1, the Bean-Validation integration module was activated. Furthermore, some great new features are available as well.

The new validation module allows to use JSR 303 with all JSF versions. JSF 2.0 supports JSR 303 out of the box. Anyway, ExtVal offers advanced features beyond the standard integration (e.g. model-validation, severity aware validation and much more!).

Moreover, the new integration module offers some great features which are already known from the existing infrastructure of ExtVal. One of these features is constraint based client-side validation in combination with MyFaces Trinidad. Early adaptors can use the snapshots which are available here.

The first milestone of the next MyFaces ExtVal release is available in the Apache snapshot repository. The next release of ExtVal depends among other things on the final release of JSR 303. Early adaptors can use the snapshots which are available here.

We wrote an article about some nice new features of JSF 2.0 for the German version of the Java-Magazin. The leading article is available in the current edition (8.2009).

The next release of MyFaces ExtVal will offer some great new features. The most important parts are:

• - JSR 303 (bean validation) integration module
• - JSF 2.0 support
• - Dynamic constraints (constraint aspects)

More details are available here.

MyFaces ExtVal is a highly pluggable validation platform which allows to extend the available features in a very easy manner. The os890 project hosts some nice add-ons as feasibility studies as well as some examples.

The second release of MyFaces ExtVal introduces new features. Some of the new features allow great new add-ons. An overview is available here.

A very short overview of the features and mechanisms of MyFaces ExtVal is available at www.slideshare.net. You can have a look at the first part. Please contact us, if you are interested in the other parts as well.

MyFaces Extensions Validator is a JSF centric validation framework.

It offers powerful and easy to use field based validation based on annotations. It has a pluggable architecture, so it is possible to add new validation modules or support for component libraries like Trinidad or other 3rd party frameworks.

MyFaces Extensions Validator is compatible with JSF 1.1.x and JSF 1.2.x. Both versions require Java 1.5+
