You can define environment variables in the Tomcat context.xml file like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context...
which is equivalent to the following in web.xml :
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>varName</env-entr...
In Java code, the variable can be looked up like this:
// import javax.naming.Context;
// import javax...

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...

This is an example that uses tag handler, UI component and renderer together to support a custom taglib. The main purpose is to show how these components play together.
The tag renders

<ul class="css class" extra...
These are the files:
The tag handler ( src/main/java/com/example/ForeachTagHandler.java ):

In the simple taglib example , I used a tag handler class to implement a taglib. This is an example to implement a taglib with a UI component. The purpose is to use a custom tag to split a string and print each part in a separate paragraph, i.e., print
<p>john</p> <p>steve</p> <p>mike</p> with custom tag <my:foreach> : <my:foreach var="who" value="john steve mike"> ... These are the files: pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"... src/main/java/com/example/UIForeash.java : package com.example; import java.io.IOExcep... src/main/resources/META-INF/faces-config.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <faces-c... src/main/resources/META-INF/foreach.taglib.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <facelet... How to use: Put the JAR file generated by the above project in the WEB-INF/lib folder of the web app. If the web app is a Maven project, just add the taglib project as a dependency:...

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....

In this example I'll add a parameter to a facelets template. The example contains three tabs, each tab points to a different page. The tab control is shared among all pages, therefore, it is put in the template.
Starting from the simple facelet example , make these additions:
Create a new template WEB-INF/templates/tabs.xhtml :
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Stric...
Add a page for the about tab ( about.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Add a page for the news tab ( news.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Add a page for the partner tab ( partner.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Build and re-deploy the application. Launch the browser and load page http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/about.jsf .

This is a simple example to demonstrate the templating power of JSF facelets. If you've used struts tiles before, you'll recognize the simplicity of templating with facelets. I've stripped out everything else except the pages themselves, just to put our focus on facelets. This is a Maven based project, and you need Tomcat (or any servlet container) to run the resulting webapp. To begin with this is the list of files:
./pom.xml ./src/main/webapp/home.xhtml ./src... I left faces-config.xml in there for completeness sake, it may not be needed. The Maven POM ( pom.xml ): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project... Web app configuration ( WEB-INF/web.xml ): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app... Empty WEB-INF/faces-config.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Thi... index.jsp is simply a redirect to home.jsf : <% response.sendRedirect("home.jsf"); %>...
