There's so much going on the "world of Java" that I tend to manage no more than reading "chapter 1" of all the different things out there. I'll need to take a closer look at JSF - especially taking into one of my current tasks which is to investigate the conversion of a custom MVC architecture to Struts.
If there is a Java platform equivalent to Struts then that may be preferrable.
Cheers,

Hi there.
I believe JSF is involved at the V part of MVC. i.e. it could become an alternative to some of the Struts taglibs, but I don't think it specifies much about the application infrastructure.
So you could use JSF as an alternative to Struts, but then you need to write a controller of your own (so I wouldn't :-)
As I wrote in a couple of other threads on the forum, the upcoming EA4 release of JavaServer Faces includes some pretty dramatic improvements in the C part of the equation. In particular, the old (and deprecated) ApplicationHandler interface is gone, and replaced by something much better.

Should we develop new apps in JSF?

The first few articles are going to deal with DynaForms, indexed properties, and the validator, and putting them all together.
