Creating a JSF manager view

> > > > >

To add a JSF manager view:

Open the new index.jsp file located in the WebContent folder and add the code shown in bold in the following code example:

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" 
    pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="f"  uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="h"  uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.ilog.com/jviews/tlds/jviews-framework-faces.tld" 
    prefix="jvf" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" 
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Insert title here</title>
</head>
<body>
<f:view>
  <h:form id='jviewsForm'>
    <jvf:view id="managerView" style="width:500px;height:300px"
      view="#{support.view}" />
  </h:form>
 </f:view>
</body>
</html>

The component <jvf:view> enables you to show the JViews graphic presentation. The view attribute of this component is bound to the view attribute of the SupportBean configured in the previous section. Note also that <jvf:view> must be inserted with in a <h:form> component.

This completes the coding of your JViews JSF application. You can now proceed to deploy and test it.
