Overview of SkinSelector
SkinSelector is a basic web application developed using MyFaces. This application demonstrates
how to use the basic MyFaces features such as:
•
User Interface (UI) Components
•
Managed Beans
•
Navigation model
This section describes the following steps required to develop, deploy, and run the SkinSelector
application:
•
“Developing SkinSelector on Windows using the Eclipse Galileo IDE” (page 151)
•
“Deploying SkinSelector on NonStop” (page 176)
•
“Running SkinSelector on NonStop” (page 178)
Developing SkinSelector on Windows using the Eclipse Galileo IDE
NOTE:
•
It is not mandatory for you to use the Eclipse Galileo IDE. You can use an IDE that supports
Java.
•
The screen captures in this section are based on Eclipse Galileo IDE version 3.5.2. The screen
captures might look different if you use a different version of Eclipse.
The following activities are required to develop SkinSelector using the Eclipse Galileo IDE:
1. “Creating the Eclipse Workspace” (page 151)
2. “Creating a Dynamic Web Project” (page 152)
3. “Creating the index.jsp File” (page 156)
4. “Modifying the web.xml File” (page 159)
5. “Adding Dependency JAR Files to the Project Library” (page 160)
6. “Creating Views for SkinSelector” (page 163)
7. “Creating the Managed Beans” (page 169)
8. “Creating the Configuration File” (page 173)
