In The Brain of Kito Mann, Polyglot JavaServer Faces
Event Info
Description
It's no secret that languages other than Java are gaining popularity on the Java Virtual Machine.
We
often hear about how new languages like Groovy, Ruby, or Scala can
speed up development and reduce boilerplate code. What isn't always
clear is how to apply these languages to JavaServer Faces applications.
In this session, Kito Mann will look at different techniques for using
other languages with JSF. We'll look at built-in Groovy support in
Mojarra, using Groovy as a DSL for JSF views with Gracelets, JRuby
integration with Spring, and examine writing JSF applications with
Scala.
