hi howard,

@ codi (documentation and setup):
see [1] (and e.g. [2])

 Web application details:
 JSF 2.1, MyFaces 2.1.9, PrimeFaces 3.4.1 (or 3.5-SNAPSHOT), Glassfish
 3.1.2.2 (build 5), JUEL 2.2.5

 From server log:
 INFO: WELD-000900 1.1.8 (Final)

 Yesterday, I started migrating from JSF Managed Beans to CDI Managed Beans.
 I referred to Chapter 28 (CDI) of Oracle's Java EE 6
 Tutorialhttp://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/tutorial/doc/giwhb.htmlas
 well as many other pages I found on the internet.

 Finally, the app starts, as I think I completed most steps necessary to
 migrate to CDI managed beans, but now it seems as though my beans are not
 accessible from facelets. As per
 MYFACES-3104https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3104,
 I am already using *JUEL 2.2.5* (that is working well with JSF Managed
 Beans in production), so I already had *
 org.apache.myfaces.EXPRESSION_FACTORY* set in web.xml, as well as
 *org.apache.myfaces.SUPPORT_JSP_AND_FACES_EL
 *to *false*, and the last thing I did was add the following to web.xml:

 context-param

 param-nameorg.apache.myfaces.annotation.SCAN_PACKAGES/param-name
 param-valuepf,jsf.users,jsf.orders/param-value
 /context-param

 Which are just a 'few' of the packages that contained beans referenced by
 the initial page of the app (login.xhtml).

 My questions:

1. Can someone please advise me of blog/tutorials that list any/all
steps necessary to migrate MyFaces 2.1.9 / Glassfish 3.1.2.2 web app
 from
JSF Managed Beans to CDI?
2. I am not using MyFaces CODI or OpenWebBeans (yet). I've seen
OpenWebBeans recommended with MyFaces Core (2.1.7+) for performance
reasons, and in PrimeFaces forum, I've seen MyFaces Core and MyFaces
 CODI
used together by some people. If I should use MyFaces CODI or
 OpenWebBeans,
please reply with blog/tutorial/instruction URLs.

 My next steps will probably be any/all of the following:

1. Remove JUEL 2.2.5 from the project, and see if I can successfully get
my pages to render via CDI
2. Add MyFaces CODI (need to search for a good set of instructions on
how to do so)
3. Add OpenWebBeans (same as above, need good set of instructions)

 Please confirm/advise. If you need any more details from me (for example,
 for me to reply with my web.xml), then please let me know.

Gerhard,

Thanks for the response. I've actually progressed quite well with migration
to TomEE and CDI. I'm sure you will see my emails here on this mailing list
of any/all questions that I have.

I want to thank you all for the responses. This actually is the first forum
where I get responses almost immediately and almost with every email that I
send to the mailing list.

I am still in the progress of migrating from Glassfish 3.1.2.2 and JSF
managed beans to TomEE/OpenEJB/OpenWebBeans/CDI, and apache user groups
have been a huge help so far.  So thanks! :)

2012-11-17 Thread Mark Struberg
Hi Howard!


JUEL is an Expression Language implementation. It has nothing to do with CDI 
apart from CDI providing an ELResolver. JUEL is much faster than the EL 
interpreter in glassfish, so this is fine.

For your beans getting recognized in EL expressions: 

1.) Do you have a META-INF/beans.xml in all your jars/classpaths which contain 
CDI beans? This files can be empty, they just act as marker files. For the 
webapp you might add one to WEB-INF/beans.xml.


2.) Do your CDI beans you access via EL have a @Named annotation?
This is needed to make them available for ELResolvers.

3.) glassfish has a few nasty integration issues when it comes to pluggin in 
different container parts. Can you try your app on tomee-1.5? [1]. It comes 
with the latest MyFaces out of the box!

Re: MyFaces 2.1.9 / Glassfish 3.1.2.2: Migrating to CDI Managed Beans

2012-11-17 Thread Howard W. Smith, Jr.
Mark,

Thank you for the response.

1. Yes, I did add an 'empty' beans.xml to WEB-INF as advised by many places
on the internet, and the app starts up successfully. I did 'not' have
beans.xml added to META-INF, since all of my code is in the web app (I
created no JARs of my own). I just added beans.xml to META-INF (while
beans.xhtml already exists in WEB-INF), attempted to start glassfish, and I
get the following error:

INFO: WELD-000900 1.1.8 (Final)
SEVERE: Exception while invoking class org.glassfish.weld.WeldDeployer load
method
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.glassfish.weld.BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.handleEntry(BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.java:504)
at
org.glassfish.weld.BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.collectJarInfo(BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.java:482)
at
org.glassfish.weld.BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.populate(BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.java:422)

I'm sure the error above means that my web app does not need 'empty'
beans.xml in META-INF (and WEB-INF), so I will remove beans.xml from
META-INF.

2. Yes, all CDI beans (accessed via EL) have @Named annotation, and I am
using @Inject along with Qualifiers (for classes that extend ancestor
classes). Below are notes from what I did/completed yesterday for this
migration:

Migrate from JSF Managed Beans to CDI Managed Beans

Replace
javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean
with
javax.inject.Named

replace
javax.faces.bean.ManagedProperty
with
javax.inject.Inject

replace
javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped
with
javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped

replace
javax.faces.bean.ApplicationScoped
with
javax.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped

replace
@ManagedBean(name =
with
@Named(

replace
@ManagedProperty(#{.*})
with
@Inject

Migrated applicationScopeBean from JSF ApplicationScoped managed bean to
EJB @Singleton with @Startup (*please disregard this*, since the last thing
I did with this was to migrate it to CDI applicationscoped instead of EJB
singleton and startup)

Added CDI Qualifier called @Descendant for all descendants of Address,
EmailAddress, Phone, and PointOfContact controllers

Replace
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap()

with @Inject and private instance variable


3. Honestly, I was hoping not to have to migrate to another container like
Tomcat or TomEE, since I only have little/limited experience with those
containers (as I attempted to migrate to Tomcat 7.0.32, 1 or 2 weeks ago,
but too much was involved and I couldn't even get the web app to start). I
am open to trying TomEE, hopefully, as a last-and-final option. :)

Great, thanks Mark. I did download TomEE, and looking at examples
(referenced on same page as TomEE downloads) and I'm looking at this guide
below to ensure I am injecting beans correctly.

 Mark,
 
 
 Thank you for the response.
 
 
 1. Yes, I did add an 'empty' beans.xml to WEB-INF as advised by many
 places on the internet, and the app starts up successfully. I did 'not'
 have beans.xml added to META-INF, since all of my code is in the web app (I
 created no JARs of my own). I just added beans.xml to META-INF (while
 beans.xhtml already exists in WEB-INF), attempted to start glassfish, and I
 get the following error:
 
 
 INFO: WELD-000900 1.1.8 (Final)
 SEVERE: Exception while invoking class org.glassfish.weld.WeldDeployer
 load method
 java.lang.NullPointerException

 org.glassfish.weld.BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.handleEntry(BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.java:504)

 org.glassfish.weld.BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.collectJarInfo(BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.java:482)
 at
 org.glassfish.weld.BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.populate(BeanDeploymentArchiveImpl.java:422)
 
 
 I'm sure the error above means that my web app does not need 'empty'
 beans.xml in META-INF (and WEB-INF), so I will remove beans.xml from
 META-INF.
 
 
 2. Yes, all CDI beans (accessed via EL) have @Named annotation, and I am
 using @Inject along with Qualifiers (for classes that extend ancestor
 classes). Below are notes from what I did/completed yesterday for this
 migration:
 
 
 Migrate from JSF Managed Beans to CDI Managed Beans
 
 
 Replace
 javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean
 with
 javax.inject.Named
 
 
 replace
 javax.faces.bean.ManagedProperty
 with
 javax.inject.Inject
 
 
 replace
 javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped
 with
 javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped
 
 
 replace
 javax.faces.bean.ApplicationScoped
 with
 javax.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped
 
 
 replace
 @ManagedBean(name =
 with
 @Named(
 
 
 replace
 @ManagedProperty(#{.*})
 with
 @Inject
 
 
 Migrated applicationScopeBean from JSF ApplicationScoped managed bean to
 EJB @Singleton with @Startup (please disregard this, since the last thing I
 did with this was to migrate it to CDI applicationscoped instead of EJB
 singleton and startup)
 
 
 Added CDI Qualifier called @Descendant for all descendants of Address,
 EmailAddress, Phone, and PointOfContact controllers
 
 
 Replace
 FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap()
 
 
 with @Inject and private instance variable
 
 
 
 
 3. Honestly, I was hoping not to have to migrate to another container
 like Tomcat or TomEE, since I only have little/limited experience with
 those containers (as I attempted to migrate to Tomcat 7.0.32, 1 or 2 weeks
 ago, but too much was involved and I couldn't even get the web app to
 start). I am open to trying TomEE, hopefully, as a last-and-final option. :)

 Hi Howard!
 
 
 JUEL is an Expression Language implementation. It has nothing to do with
 CDI apart from CDI providing an ELResolver. JUEL is much faster than the EL
 interpreter in glassfish, so this is fine.
 
 For your beans getting recognized in EL expressions:
 
 1.) Do you have a META-INF/beans.xml in all your jars/classpaths which
 contain CDI beans? This files can be empty, they just act as marker files.
 For the webapp you might add one to WEB-INF/beans.xml.
 
 
 2.) Do your CDI beans you access via EL have a @Named annotation?
 This is needed to make them available for ELResolvers.
 
 3.) glassfish has a few nasty integration issues when it comes to
 pluggin in different container parts. Can you try your app on tomee-1.5?

Re: MyFaces 2.1.9 / Glassfish 3.1.2.2: Migrating to CDI Managed Beans

2012-11-17 Thread José Luis Cetina
Hi let me tell you my experience.
I migrate from managedbeans + mojarra + glassfish to myfaces + WELD + TomEE
and now I'm so happy to did so.

Now my app use:
-Apache TomEE 1.5
-Apache MyFaces
-Apache CODI
-Primefaces 3.4.2
-Primefaces Mobile
-Primefaces Extensions 0.6.1
-PrettyFaces  3.3.3
-OpenJPA 2.2
-EJB
-JdbcRealm for login (my own query for login using any tables in my mysql
database).
-WELD
-And all the excellent Apache stuff
Etc...

And I'm so happy with this change, the this are more easy to config, use
more standards, is very very fast, use myfaces and with this you can forget
speed issues.

This project is a maven project, in netbeans 7.2.

If you need some example project I can send you a simple example.

I enhance my jpa entities so easy with maven plugin, run in every IDE and
other stuff that are excellents

Seriously if have the opportunity and time to migrate do it now you will be
happy.

And one tip maybe you don't need CODI at the beginning. CODI can help in
many things like type-safe navigations, security, validations,  prerenders
events and so on.

Al most forget to tell you the easy Way for drop your jars in lib folder
and with this decrease your war size, I remember in glassfish sometimes it
wasn't easy.

I recommend you to be alert for changes and fixes in TomEE, because they
fix issues and update in they trunk svn everyday.

Please suscribe to TomEE mailing lists. Rommain is a great commiter guy who
help immediately with other people.

I hope this experience can help you.

  Hi let me tell you my experience.
  I migrate from managedbeans + mojarra + glassfish to myfaces + WELD +
 TomEE
  and now I'm so happy to did so.
 
  Now my app use:
  -Apache TomEE 1.5
  -Apache MyFaces
  -Apache CODI
  -Primefaces 3.4.2
  -Primefaces Mobile
  -Primefaces Extensions 0.6.1
  -PrettyFaces  3.3.3
  -OpenJPA 2.2
  -EJB
  -JdbcRealm for login (my own query for login using any tables in my mysql
  database).
  -WELD
  -And all the excellent Apache stuff
  Etc...
 
  And I'm so happy with this change, the this are more easy to config, use
  more standards, is very very fast, use myfaces and with this you can
 forget
  speed issues.
 
  This project is a maven project, in netbeans 7.2.
 
  If you need some example project I can send you a simple example.
 
  I enhance my jpa entities so easy with maven plugin, run in every IDE and
  other stuff that are excellents
 
  Seriously if have the opportunity and time to migrate do it now you will
 be
  happy.
 
  And one tip maybe you don't need CODI at the beginning. CODI can help in
  many things like type-safe navigations, security, validations,
  prerenders
  events and so on.
 
  Al most forget to tell you the easy Way for drop your jars in lib folder
  and with this decrease your war size, I remember in glassfish sometimes
 it
  wasn't easy.
 
  I recommend you to be alert for changes and fixes in TomEE, because they
  fix issues and update in they trunk svn everyday.
 
  Please suscribe to TomEE mailing lists. Rommain is a great commiter guy
 who
  help immediately with other people.
 
  I hope this experience can help you.

2012-11-17 Thread Mark Struberg
Hi Howard!

cross-posting to openejb-dev which is the community behind TomEE.

Juel is an Expression Language library which parses the EL expressions and 
invokes the various registered ELResolvers until one of them feels responsible. 

TomEE (like glassfish) contains plain tomcat which has an own EL library in 
jasper-el. 
Please remove juel for now. We will add it back later. also comment out the 
expression factory context-param in your web.xml.

I'm not sure if that helps, but via remote I can only to give you tips until we 
found the problem.


PS: TODO we gonna write up a documentation about how to use JUEL with TomEE.

Done. I removed JUEL (and MyFaces CODI), for now, from classpath as well as
web.xml.

FYI, with respect to writeup, how to use Juel with TomEE/OpenWebBeans, I
used instructions at the following URL:

http://tandraschko.blogspot.de/2012/08/increase-your-jsf-application.html


Before and after removing JUEL (and MyFaces CODI), I have been getting the

  Hi Howard!
 
  cross-posting to openejb-dev which is the community behind TomEE.
 
  Juel is an Expression Language library which parses the EL expressions
 and
  invokes the various registered ELResolvers until one of them feels
  responsible.
 
  TomEE (like glassfish) contains plain tomcat which has an own EL library
  in jasper-el.
  Please remove juel for now. We will add it back later. also comment out
  the expression factory context-param in your web.xml.
 
  I'm not sure if that helps, but via remote I can only to give you tips
  until we found the problem.
 
 
  PS: TODO we gonna write up a documentation about how to use JUEL with
  TomEE.

   Okay, I downloaded TomEE 1.5 plus, and trying to start the app.
  
   I have the following in my web.xml:
  
   context-param
  
   param-nameorg.apache.myfaces.EXPRESSION_FACTORY/param-name
  
   param-valuede.odysseus.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl/param-value
   /context-param
  
   The error(s) below leads me to believe that I may need to remove JUEL
  2.2.5
   from my web app. Please confirm/advise.

hi jose,
  
just fyi:
with tomee you don't need weld, because you get openwebbeans
out-of-the-box.

 Hi let me tell you my experience.
 I migrate from managedbeans + mojarra + glassfish to myfaces +
 WELD +
TomEE
 and now I'm so happy to did so.

 Now my app use:
 -Apache TomEE 1.5
 -Apache MyFaces
 -Apache CODI
 -Primefaces 3.4.2
 -Primefaces Mobile
 -Primefaces Extensions 0.6.1
 -PrettyFaces  3.3.3
 -OpenJPA 2.2
 -EJB
 -JdbcRealm for login (my own query for login using any tables in my
   mysql
 database).
 -WELD
 -And all the excellent Apache stuff
 Etc...

 And I'm so happy
