OmniFaces 2.1-RC1 has been released!

-
We are proud to announce that OmniFaces 2.1 release candidate 1 has been made available for testing.

OmniFaces 2.1 is the second release that will depend on JSF 2.2 and CDI 1.1 from Java EE 7. Since Java EE 7 availability remains somewhat scarce, we maintain a no-frills 1.x branch for JSF 2.0 (without CDI). For this branch we've simultaneously released a release candidate as well: 1.11-RC1.

A full list of what's new and changed is available here.

OmniFaces 2.1 RC1 can be tested by adding the following dependency to your pom.xml: 

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.omnifaces</groupId>
    <artifactId>omnifaces</artifactId>
    <version>2.1-RC1</version>
</dependency>

Alternatively the jars files can be downloaded directly.

For the 1.x branch the coordinates are: 

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.omnifaces</groupId>
    <artifactId>omnifaces</artifactId>
    <version>1.11-RC1</version>
</dependency>
This one too can be downloaded directly.

If no major bugs surface we hope to release OmniFaces 2.1 final soon.

Jakarta EE Survey 2022

-
At OmniFaces we poll the community from time to time and again about Jakarta EE (previously Java EE) and related technologies. With the transfer of Java EE to Jakarta EE now fully completed and Jakarta EE 10 released , people are now starting to think about Jakarta EE 11 , the second Jakarta EE feature release. As such it's a good time to poll the community again. This year we're doing so in cooperation with OmniFish . In the 2022 edition, there are 4 categories of questions again: Current usage of Jakarta EE Servlet containers APIs related to Jakarta EE The future of Jakarta EE Compared to 2020, we simplified some of the questions once more; again omitting some of the less popular options to make it more manageable. We kept the questions about the future of Jakarta EE and MP together as this issue still isn't resolved. We also ask about the preferred Jakarta EE cadence. As Jakarta EE 10 is the first feature release, we haven't really established a cade

Implementing container authentication in Java EE with JASPIC

-
This article takes a look at the state of security support in Java EE 6, with a focus on applications that wish to do their own authentication and the usage of the JASPI/JASPIC/JSR 196 API. Update: the further reading section has been moved to my ZEEF page about JASPIC . This contains links to articles, background, questions and answers, and more.   Declarative security is easy In Java EE it has always been relatively straightforward to specify to which resources security constraints should be applied. For web resources (Servlets, JSP pages, etc) there is the <security-constraint> element in web.xml, while for EJB beans there's the @RolesAllowed annotation. Via this so called 'declarative security' the programmer can specify that only a user having the given roles is allowed access to the protected web resource, or may invoke methods on the protected bean. The declarative model has a programmatic counterpart via methods like HttpServletRequest#isUserInR

Counting the rows returned from a JPA query

-
Despite being almost ten years old, the JPA specification to this day has rather poor support for basic paging/sorting/filtering. Paging/sorting/filtering is used in a lot of (CRUD) applications where the result from a query is shown in a table, and where the user can scroll through the results one page at a time, and where this result can be sorted by clicking on any of the table column headers. In order to support this a number of things are generally needed: The total number of rows (or entities) in the full result must be known There should be support for an offset in the full result and a limit for the amount of rows that will be obtained The column (attribute) on which to sort must be dynamically added to the query Search expressions must be dynamically added to the query As it appears, only offset/limit is directly supported in JPA. A sorting column can only be added dynamically when using the overly verbose and hard to work with Criteria API. Search expressions
