I use JSF with Spring Boot.
My problem is, that if I use the #javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean annotation I receive
javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Target Unreachable, identifier
[numberTest] resolved to null
I resolved the issue with put also the #Component annotation on the managed bean.
The other way was to put the Java classes in the WEB-INF.
My question is: both above-mentioned way seems to be bad and I think that they will cause trouble. What would be the solution to this problem?
I Googled a lot and tried every solution found.
(An additional fact, is that with #javax.annotation.ManagedBean the core JSP functions work (I didn't receive the error) but for example EL doesn't.)
Here is the code, in which with I receive the PropertyNotFoundException:
Configuration.java
import javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.ServletRegistrationBean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.config.EnableJpaRepositories;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.EnableTransactionManagement;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.EnableWebMvc;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.WebMvcConfigurerAdapter;
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableAutoConfiguration
#EnableTransactionManagement
#EnableWebMvc
#Configuration
#EnableJpaRepositories(basePackageClasses = {})
#ComponentScan(basePackageClasses = { CLASSES_ARE_HERE })
public class Configuration {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Configuration.class, args);
}
#Bean
public ServletRegistrationBean servletRegistrationBean() {
FacesServlet servlet = new FacesServlet();
ServletRegistrationBean servletRegistrationBean = new ServletRegistrationBean(servlet, "*.xhtml");
return servletRegistrationBean;
}
}
The managed bean:
import javax.faces.bean.ApplicationScoped;
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
#ManagedBean
#ApplicationScoped
public class NumberTest {
private int theNumber=0;
public NumberTest() {
}
public void addOne() {
theNumber++;
}
public void addN(int n) {
theNumber+=n;
}
public int getTheNumber() {
return theNumber;
}
public void setTheNumber(int theNumber) {
this.theNumber = theNumber;
}
}

now,it is working
and using this url http://localhost:8080/index.xhtml
I've been trying to follow various articles on setting up my first JSF application and can't get my first xhtml page to be found. I keep getting the error "This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback" in the browser.
In the browser, I type http://localhost:8080/modelSimulation.xhtml to get this error, and in the console, I see:
... :GET "/modelSimulation.xhtml", parameters={}
... :No mapping for GET /modelSimulation.xhtml
My spring boot application has added the various things required to setup JSF with spring boot, but clearly I'm missing something to be able to view my modelSimulation.xhtml page. What am I missing? Thanks!
I also tried http://localhost:8080 but get corresponding no mapping error too.

I added the 2 required beans to the SpringBootApplication class:
#Bean
public ServletRegistrationBean servletRegistrationBean() {
FacesServlet servlet = new FacesServlet();
return new ServletRegistrationBean(servlet, "*.jsf");
}
#Bean
public FilterRegistrationBean rewriteFilter() {
FilterRegistrationBean rwFilter = new FilterRegistrationBean(new RewriteFilter());
rwFilter.setDispatcherTypes(EnumSet.of(DispatcherType.FORWARD, DispatcherType.REQUEST,
DispatcherType.ASYNC, DispatcherType.ERROR));
rwFilter.addUrlPatterns("/*");
return rwFilter;
}
Here's the backing bean (I don't understand the #Join...)
#Scope(value = "session")
#Component(value = "tradingModelSimulationController")
#ELBeanName(value = "tradingModelSimulationController")
#Join(path = "/modelSimulation", to = "/modelSimulation.jsf")
public class TradingModelSimulationController {
ModelSimulation modelSimulation = new ModelSimulation();

int ranking;
public void apply() {
System.out.println("Applied: " + modelSimulation.toString());
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance()
.execute("handleMsg('applied!');");
}
public ModelSimulation getModelSimulation() {

public void setSymbol(String symbol) {

Here is the code for mapping xhtml page from ManagedBean.
I just want when the button is clicked then the login page will show....But when the button is clicked there is only home.xhtml page reloading...Login page is not loading....
The selection of the next view depends on the value of the action attribute of the UICommand components. If the navigation handler finds a navigation rule for this page with this outcome, the next view will be the element content. If there is no any rule like this it looks for a page with the value (or it appended with ".xhtml" file extension).
The variations:
1., Direct view definition:
<h:commandButton action="next_page_name"/>
It must be a full qualified name (page names + file name), but the xhtml could be omitted.
2., Indirect view definition:
In this case the action value is contains a bean method invocation:
<h:commandButton action="#{myBean.methodName}"/>
This method should be a function without any parameter and passes back a String value. This result will be the income for the navigation handler. It could return a page name or a navigation rule.
Now let us see your problem. If the name of your current view is id_home.xhml and you want to navigate to the login.xhtml page (both are in the x package):
1., Direct view definition. Return value "x/login" or "x/login.xhtml" from the show() method:
public String show()
{
//...
return "x/login";
}
2., Indirect view definition. Define a page navigation rule in the faces-config.xml like this:
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/x/id_home.xhtml</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>go_to_login</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>x/login.xhtml</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
In this case myBean.methodName passes back the content of the form-outcome element:
public String show()
{
//...
return "go_to_login";
}

so the console doesnt show the message "hello" in method init which means that id doesnt work.
maybe it is because that i didnt declare servlet element in web.xm, but i dont have any idea on how it works ..
NB: I tested Services With JUnit, worked fine
i have solved that problem with annotating UserBean class with #Service("userbean") and adding :
<bean id="usersBean" class="com.posts.beans.UsersBean" init-method="init" />
in application-context.xml file ..
when I run my application , i see hibernate generated code of SELECT and the message hello
Hello
Hibernate: select users0_.id as id1_2_, users0_.login as login2_2_, users0_.nom as nom3_2_, users0_.password as password4_2_, users0_.prenom as prenom5_2_ from public.users users0_
" in the console which means that init() method have been executed.
You can make it work in three different ways:
add to your application-context.xml bean that is responsible to work out #PostConstruct annotation:
<bean class="org.springframework.context.annotation.CommonAnnotationBeanPostProcessor" />
add namespase that already has CommonAnnotationBeanPostProcessor inside:
<context:annotation-config />
or
<context:component-scan base-package="package.with.beans" /> <!-- scans components and adds <context:annotation-config /> -->
define init method in the tag bean of your class for argument "init-method"

You'll have to have a ContextLoaderListener in your web.xml - It loads your configuration files.
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
You need to understand the difference between Web application context and root application context .
In the web MVC framework, each DispatcherServlet has its own WebApplicationContext, which
inherits all the beans already defined in the root WebApplicationContext. These inherited
beans defined can be overridden in the servlet-specific scope, and new scope-specific
beans can be defined local to a given servlet instance.

Read the spring reference here for spring mvc .
And if you would like to use an existing context, rather than a new context which would be loaded from xml configuration by org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener,
