Creating a New Application with JSF Support

See Also

Sun's JavaServer Faces (JSF) technology (JSR-127) is the standard Java API for building user interface components in web applications. JSF also includes the Visual Web JavaServer Faces framework, enabling drag and drop functionality and providing a more visual approach to web application design.

The JSF tag libraries and supporting files are bundled with the IDE.

To create a new web application with JSF support:

  1. Choose File > New Project (Ctrl-Shift-N).
  2. From the Web category, select Web Application.
  3. Follow the first panel, click Next, and select either Java ServerFaces or Visual Web JavaServer Faces in the Frameworks panel.

After you create a web application with JSF support, you can use the New JSF Managed Bean Wizard.
