Module10-JSF RMI WebServices

Java Server Faces (JSF) is a Java framework for building web applications that offers a clean separation between behavior and presentation. JSF uses a component-based model-view-controller architecture and provides standard HTML tags to build the user interface. Some benefits of JSF include its component-based approach, ease of development, default exception handling, and separation of functionality from display of components. However, JSF can become complex to maintain when mixing Java and XHTML code and forcing this intermingling. JSF programs use standard HTML tags with JSF namespaces to render corresponding HTML output on the server side.

Java Programming

Why JSF?
• JavaServer Faces (JSF) is a new standard Java
framework for building Web applications.
• Java specification for building component-
based user interfaces for web applications
• JSF offers a clean separation between
behavior and presentation for web
applications.
What is JSF?
• Java Server Faces (JSF) technology is a front
end framework which makes the creation of user
interface components easier by reusing the UI
components.
• JSF is designed based on the Model View
Controller pattern (MVC) which segregates the
presentation, controller and the business logic.
• UI Components: Text fields, list boxes,
checkboxes, labels, panels, radio buttons, and
other elements
JSF Features

• Component Based Framework.


• JSP is based on the Model-View-Controller
concept
• Ease and Rapid web Development.
• Default Exception Handling.
• JSF separates the functionality of a
component from the display of the
component.
Why not JSF?
• JSF forces you to mix Java and xhtml code for
the same feature.
• JSF project can be easily become too complex
to maintain
JSF program
• JSF provides a standard HTML tag library
which are rendered into corresponding html
output.
• In order to use these these tags we need to
use the following namespaces of URI in html
node.
• <html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" >
JSF tags HTML tags
h:inputText <input type="text“>
h:outputText Plain text JSF tags are
similar to
h:form <form> html tags
h:commandButton <input type=value> with minor
value can be "submit", "reset", variations
or "image"
h:inputSecret <input type="password">
h:inputTextarea <textarea>
h:inputHidden <input type="hidden">
h:dataTable <table>
h:outputLabel <label>
h:panelGrid <table> element with <tr> and
<td> elements
h:selectOneRadio <input type="radio">

h:selectBooleanCheckbox <input type="checkbox">


JSF-Example code 1
java class and X-html
@ManagedBean(name="hello")
This is the name for the object of HelloWorld class
Later can use in JSF tag to fetch its variables as #(hello.s1)

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>


<html
@ManagedBean(name="hello") xmlns="https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
public class HelloWorld xmlns:h="https://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
{ <h:head>
private String s1 = "Hello World!!"; <title>Hello World JSF Example</title>
</h:head>
} <h:body>
#{hello.s1}
<br />
<br />
Use <h:head> instead of <head>
</h:body>
Access the java class HelloWorld </html>
varaible s1 via java object helloWorld
declared using @ManagedBean
@ManagedBean(name="temperatureCo <html> Example 2
nvertor") <title>Celsius to Fahrenheit Convertor</title>
public class TemperatureConvertor { <h:body>
private double celsius; <h:form>
private double fahrenheit; <h:outputLabel value="Celsius">
private boolean initial= true; </h:outputLabel>
public double getCelsius() { <h:inputText
return celsius; } value="#{temperatureConvertor.celsius}">
public void setCelsius(double celsius) { </h:inputText>
this.celsius = celsius; } <h:commandButton action=
public double getFahrenheit() { "#{temperatureConvertor.celsiusToFahrenheit}"
return fahrenheit; } value="Calculate">
public boolean getInitial(){ </h:commandButton>
return initial; } <h:commandButton action=
public String reset (){ "#{temperatureConvertor.reset}" value="Reset">
initial = true; </h:commandButton>
fahrenheit =0; </h:form>

return "reset"; <h:outputLabel value="Fahrenheit ">
} </h:outputLabel>
public String celsiusToFahrenheit(){ initial <h:outputLabel
= false; value="#{temperatureConvertor.fahrenheit}">
fahrenheit = (celsius *9 / 5) +32; </h:outputLabel> </h:body> </html>
return "calculated"; } }

Web services
• A web service makes software application resources
available over networks using standard technologies.
• A web service is a collection of open protocols and
standards used for exchanging data between
applications or systems
• Web services are based on standard interfaces and
hence they can communicate even if they are running
on different operating systems and are written in
different languages.
• Therefore, Web services are an excellent approach for
building distributed applications that must incorporate
diverse systems over a network.
What are Web services?
• Web services are client and server applications that communicate over
the World Wide Web’s (WWW) HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP).
• web services provide a standard means of interoperating between
software applications running on a variety of platforms and frameworks.
• Web services are characterized by their great interoperability and
extensibility, as well as their machine-processable descriptions, XML.
• Web services can be combined in a loosely coupled way to achieve
complex operations.
• Software applications written in various programming languages and
running on various platforms can use web services to exchange data over
computer networks like the Internet in a manner similar to inter-process
communication on a single computer.
• A web service:
– Publicly describes its own functionality through a
WSDL file
• WSDL is an XML, and it stands for Web Service Description
Language. WSDL describes all the methods available in the
web service, along with the request and response types. It
describes the contract between service and client.
– Communicates with other applications via XML
messages, often formatted with SOAP
– Employs a standard network protocol such as HTTP
Types of web services
• There are two types of web services:
– SOAP Web Services
– REST Web Services
SOAP
• SOAP is an XML-based protocol.
• SOAP stands for Simple Object Access Protocol.
• SOAP was intended to be a way to do remote
procedure calls to remote objects by sending XML
over HTTP.
REST Web Services

• The REST stands for Representational State Transfer.


• REST is not a set of standards or rules, rather it is a style of
software architecture.
• The applications which follow this architecture are referred
to as RESTful
• REST locates the resources by using URL and it depends on
the type of transport protocol(with HTTP - GET, POST, PUT,
DELETE,...) for the actions to be performed on the
resources.
• while requesting the data from a website, the data should
be in a browser readable format, which is HTML, while in
case of the REST API, response can be anything
like XML/JSON or any other media type.
