Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.2 Release Notes

JavaServer Faces 1.1 Support

The Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.2 supports JavaServer Faces 1.1 technology. The JavaServer Faces technology consists of a set of server-side APIs that represent user-interface components that manage their state, event, handling, and input validation. The APIs also define page navigation and support internationalization and accessibility. You can add custom user-interface components with a JSP custom tag library.

While developing with JavaServer Faces technology, each member of a development team can focus on a single piece of the process. A simple programming model then links the pieces, resulting in a much more efficient and simpler development cycle.
