Validation groups can be used to control which rules validation rules to run. A validation group can be identified by any Java interface (not class!). Multiple validation groups may be specified when validating.
In this example, I added a validation group named MyValidationGroup ( src/main/java/com/example/MyValidationGroup.java in Maven project):
package com.example;
public interface MyVal...
and added a @Size rule for a person's name, because my database can only store up to 15 characters for a person's name:
package com.example;
import javax.validatio...
Now validate Person with a JUnit test ( src/test/java/com/example/TestPersonWithGroup.java in Maven project):
package com.example;
import java.util.Set;
...
Test with " mvn clean test ". The rules where groups is not specified, which belong to the javax.validation.groups.Default group, are not executed with these tests.

Our custom tag, as implemented in the previous note , is broken when a template is used.
Create a template file ( home-template.xhtml ):
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Stric...
and a test page that uses it ( home.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Then request the page with URL: http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/home.jsf?name=Jack .
You'll find that our hello tag works inside ui:repeat but fails to get the value defined by ui:param ! What's the problem? Our hello tag implementation evaluated the EL with the wrong EL context!
This is the corrected implementation:
package com.example;
import java.io.IOExcep...

Step 1: Repackage a web app as EAR A Java EE application is a multimodule Maven project. At the very least you'll need to package a WAR and an EAR. To get started, I'll simply re-package the simple webapp as an EAR. Create a directory named javaee-app Copy the webapp from here to javaee-app . Rename struts1app to webapp . Create pom.xml under javaee-app :
<project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>... Create a directory named ear under javaee-app . Create pom.xml under ear : <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>... Modify pom.xml in the webapp directory so that it looks like this: <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> ... Build with " mvn package " in the javaee-app directory. You can see that ear-1.0.ear is successfully generated in javaee-app/ear/target . Maven successfully resolves dependencies between the sub-projects....

Some javap usage examples.
Start from HelloWorld.java :
@Deprecated
public class HelloWorld {
pu...
javap -c HelloWorld outputs:
Compiled from "HelloWorld.java"
public class He...
javap -v HelloWorld outputs ( -v for verbose mode):
Compiled from "HelloWorld.java"
public class He...
The output consists of:
" Compiled from... " header
Class attributes. For the HelloWorld example, there are two: SourceFile and Deprecated .
Minor and major class file version
Constant pool
Disassembled code
LineNumberTable for debugging purposes.
javap by default only prints package/protected/public members. To display all members including private, use the -p switch.
javap -v -p HelloWorld

There are two methods to create a temporary file in Java: File.createTempFile(String prefix, String suffix) : Creates an empty file in the default temporary-file directory, using the given prefix and suffix to generate its name. The default temporary-file directory is specified by the system property java.io.tmpdir . File.createTempFile(String prefix, String suffix, File directory) Creates a new empty file in the specified directory, using the given prefix and suffix strings to generate its name. If no exception is thrown, then: The file denoted by the returned abstract pathname did not exist before this method was invoked, and Neither this method nor any of its variants will return the same abstract pathname again in the current invocation of the virtual machine. Call File.deleteOnExit() to arrange for the...

Specify "UTF-8" as charsetName to the constructor of InputStreamReader . From JavaDoc:
An InputStreamReader is a bridge from byte streams to character streams: It reads bytes and decodes them into characters using a specified charset. The charset that it uses may be specified by name or may be given explicitly, or the platform's default charset may be accepted.
BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(
