Spring-WS documentation says you can use a Jaxb object as parameter or return type, provided that it is annotated with javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement , or is an instance of javax.xml.bind.JAXBElement . But that's a lot easier said than done! For example, if sayHelloResponse is defined as:
<xs:element name="sayHelloResponse" type="tns:sayH... then the JAXB generated class is not annotated with XmlRootElement , therefore, unusable for Spring-WS. You have to define the type as: <xs:element name="sayHelloResponse"> <xs:compl... in order to generate a type annotated with XmlRootElement . But that is not always possible. Alternatively, you can use the Maven plugin maven-jaxb2-plugin with the jaxb2-basics-annotate plugin (yes, plugin inside plugin) to inject the XmlRootElement annotation into the generated JAXB class. This is the pom: <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"... and the binding file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="y......

After a user resets a password, I want to force the user to change the password before she gets access to secured content. This is usually done with a servlet filter. But with Spring MVC, you can also use a HandlerInterceptor . According to Spring JavaDoc: HandlerInterceptor is basically similar to a Servlet 2.3 Filter, but in contrast to the latter it just allows custom pre-processing with the option of prohibiting the execution of the handler itself, and custom post-processing. Filters are more powerful, for example they allow for exchanging the request and response objects that are handed down the chain. Note that a filter gets configured in web.xml, a HandlerInterceptor in the application context. As a basic guideline, fine-grained handler-related preprocessing tasks are candidates...

Lacking better alternatives, this is how I render a global validation error:
<spring:bind path="changePasswordForm">
<c:if ...
<form:errors> without path attribute seems to work too:
<form:errors cssClass="ui-error"/>

To implement a JSP custom tag with dynamic attributes (for example, to pass-thru arbitrary attributes not handled by the JSP tag):
Set the dynamic-attributes element to true in the TLD:
<tag>
<name>mark</name>
<tag-class>c...
The tag handler must implement javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.DynamicAttributes :
package com.example.jsp;
import java.io.*;

flowplayer is another way to embed Flash in a web page. The code looks like this:

You need to download two swf files:

A JSON response is auto-magically returned when you add the @ResponseBody annotation to the return value of a @RequestMapping annotated method:
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;

For magic to happen, you must:
Add annotation-driven to the org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet config xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Put Jackson jar files on CLASSPATH (i.e., under WEB-INF/lib ), which includes jackson-core-asl-1.6.4.jar and jackson-mapper-asl-1.6.4.jar .

The domain object is annotated @Entity , but Java runtime complains that it's not an entity class.
Cause: : class not listed in persistence.xml , or persistence.xml misplaced, or multiple persistence.xml files existed.

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...

You can add custom implicit variables to JSF pages by using a custom EL resolver, in two simple steps: Write an ELResolver class to resolve the variable Add the ELResolver to faces-config.xml Starting from the Maven Hello World example: Add faces API and EL dependencies to pom.xml :
<dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>o... Add a simple greeter class ( src/main/java/com/example/Greeter.java ): package com.example; public class Greeter {... Add our custom EL resolver ( src/main/java/com/example/ELResolver.java ): package com.example; import java.util.Itera... Add the custom EL resolver to src/main/resources/META-INF/faces-config.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <faces-c... Build JAR with mvn package Drop the JAR into WEB-INF/lib of a webapp and test the new EL with: <h:outputText value="#{Greeter.sayHi('Mike')}"/> Fixed: the setValue method used to throw an exception, which is wrong. @Override public void setValue(ELContext ctx, O......

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 ):
