Chapter 18. JavaServer Faces
Sooner or later, every
software developer has the
opportunity to build a rich client using Swing, Delphi, C++, or one
of Microsoft's user interface (UI) programming
languages. It quickly becomes obvious that the development of these
applications is wholly different than working on an application
intended to run within a web browser. The differences are many, but
one of the biggest standouts is the lack of readily available UI
components for web applications.With the advent of MVC, the goal of separating application logic from
the presentation of the business data has become a well-accepted
design practice. While greatly improved development environments such
the frameworks discussed throughout this book (along with
technologies such as Java servlets and JSPs) have aided developers
who build browser-based applications, other technologies are
continually emerging. When building applications whose purpose is to
solve a "real-world" business
problem, your chance of beating your competitors to the marketplace
is very closely tied to the ability to develop applications that are
faster, better, and cheaper.This chapter presents an overview of one of the next-generation
technologies that is attracting much attentionlargely because
of its promise to do things faster, better, and maybe even cheaper.
As with many other software development topics, entire books are
being written on the topic, so we'll focus on how
this new technology integrates with Struts and leave the details for
another book. |
