Manfred Riem's Blog

Manfred Riem I love working with a broad range of technologies. At work it is mostly JavaEE technologies, as a hobby I do some JavaSE and some JavaME. I love embedded Java, so SunSPOTs are sooooo cool. If you want some advice I am always available by email. Just drop me a note and I'll see what I can do. Now living in beautiful Utah. I love to see the country side from high up on a mountain. Beyond that I am totally into reading SciFi novels. If you read a good one do hesitate to forward the suggestion. And last but not least I love Java and especially in education.

Releasing Manor 'n Rock JSF NAL components, version 1.4

Posted by mriem on September 02, 2008 at 06:28 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)

Thanks for asking I would say to Geertjan, he told me he was missing the "required" attribute, so this release contains that, and also the "requiredMessage" attribute. See Geertjan's DZone blog entry for a sample on how you can use this component.

You can find the JAR file, documentation JAR and sources JAR at the Maven 2 repository

Feel free to submit RFE's just like Geertjan did!

Releasing Manor 'n Rock JSF Parent POM

Posted by mriem on August 30, 2008 at 03:00 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)

In order for us to cut down on configuration of our projects we have decided to include a JSF parent POM as part of our development. Note that this change will not impact you if you use the components. We mention it because you might wonder why you get an additional POM downloaded when you use Maven 2.

Writing a JSF Book

Posted by mriem on August 25, 2008 at 08:00 AM | Permalink | Comments (9)

I have begun the process of writing a JSF book, it will be a slow process since I will be doing this in my spare time, but it will be packed with a lot of examples. Actually it will be a book that you should not just read, but you should do the coding alongside with it so you can a really good grasp of JSF.

The previews will be all available from here.

If you have any comments about the preview chapters feel free to let me know at mriem@manorrock.com

JSF and HTML 4 Strict #2

Posted by mriem on July 26, 2008 at 01:59 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)

As promised an update on the progress of the JSF HTML components.

Have a look at http://www.manorrock.com/demo/jsf/html/phrase.html, which shows you how to use the HTML phrase elements.

As before the JAR files are available from the Maven 2 repository at http://repo.manorrock.com/.

JSF and HTML 4 Strict

Posted by mriem on July 19, 2008 at 10:50 AM | Permalink | Comments (2)

If you think JSF is a bit too hard to use because you are better used to HTML and you want a slow migration, instead of a steep learning curve? Use Manor 'n Rock JSF HTML components.

I am currently working hard to make it possible to use almost all of the HTML 4 strict elements in a JSF way. See for a work-in-progress demo: http://www.manorrock.com/demo/jsf/html/heading.html.

If you want to try it out for yourself, you can either download the necessary JAR files from our Maven 2 repository, or you can use Maven 2 and specify a dependency on the library like this:
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.manorrock.jsf.html</groupId>
            <artifactId>com-manorrock-jsf-html</artifactId>
            <version>1.3</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>manorrock</id>
            <url>http://repo.manorrock.com/</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>

Note: since this is a work-in-progress I will keep updating and posting small blog entries explaining what my progress on this library is. If you have a particular question, send me an email.

Apache load balancer with fail-over and Glassfish v2ur2+

Posted by mriem on June 21, 2008 at 08:49 AM | Permalink | Comments (2)

If you are in need of a low-cost cluster then you can use the Apache load balancer module and a set of Glassfish nodes in a cluster to get HA and fail-over. Read about it here.
