JavaServer Faces (JSF) and Ajax are two main stream technologies that together promise faster and better Rich Internet Application (RIA) development. While JSF 2.0 is expected to include new functionality tailored for Ajax and RIA, we'll show you how to start developing now.
In this session you'll learn how-to build RIA UI's fast and easy, develop reusable JSF flows, integrate method calls and router decisions in JSF flows, build advanced JSF templates, work with additional memory scopes and declarativly build and reuse your own JSF components. We'll demo the above using Oracle ADF Faces Rich Client components, a set of over 150 standard JSF components with built-in Ajax support, as well as the ADF TaskFlow - an extension to the JSF controller.
