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...

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 ):

The improved custom taglib works with existing facelet ui taglibs. For example:
<ui:param name="theName" value="John"/> <my:hel... produces the expected output. However, a problem exists with the ui:repeat tag: <h3>With ui:repeat</h3> <ui:repeat var="theName... When tested with a URL like: http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/?name=Zack&name... the raw EL prints out the correct names, but my custom tag substitutes empty string for theName2 ! In theory, the response is rendered in the Render Response phase, way after the Apply Request Values phase, actual values should be available to EL. The answer to this anomaly turned out to be very deep ! Yes, right there in the code! I would consider this a bug in facelets implementation, but the JSF spec did not tell what the expected behavior should be. In my custom...

From Oracle doc:
DBA_FREE_SPACE describes the free extents in all tablespaces in the database.
Note that if a datafile (or entire tablespace) is offline in a locally managed tablespace, you will not see any extent information. If an object has extents in an online file of the tablespace, you will see extent information about the offline datafile. However, if the object is entirely in the offline file, a query of this view will not return any records.
SQL> select tablespace_name, count(*) free_extends...

IE uses Notepad as the default editor when you select "View Source" from a web page. You can change it to your favorite editor by adding a couple of keys to the registry: Start regedit Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ Add key View Source Editor Under View Source Editor , add key Editor Name Change the default string value to the full path of your favorite editor. The following is the registry entry for vim (full tip for vim is available from the vim wiki ):
