Sun is releasing its new JavaServer Faces 2.x APIs as part of its new Java EE 6 Platform release in summer 2009. Beginning JSF™ 2 API and JBoss® Seam should be one of the first books on JSF 2 and Java EE 6.

This book is a quick-start tutorial for getting readers up to speed with the new JSF 2.x APIs and learning to implement them using the latest Seam Web framework. Readers learn to create and enhance an eShop, using practical methods, and can re-purpose the template for their own personal and professional projects.

1.0 out of 5 stars Useless book, June 4, 2009
This review is from: Beginning JSF 2 APIs and JBoss Seam (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
The title only says about JSF 2 APIs. But this book does not cover any features of JSF 2. The author wrote book for 1.2 and titled as JSF 2 APIs.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good JSF book but very little 2 in the JSF 2, May 13, 2010
This review is from: Beginning JSF 2 APIs and JBoss Seam (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
If you are looking at learning JSF from the scratch, then this is a very good book. The code listing with author's comments very clearly explain how each aspect of code impacts behavior. I am comfortable with JSF 1.2 now. But learning the technology was a little uphill. I am sure, had I read this book, it would have been less uphill and would have taken less time to understand what each aspect of code meant.

I read this book to learn about the features what were newly introduced in version 2 of JSF. And it was a dis-appointment on that front. Like a previous reviewer notes, the book was written for JSF 1.2 and then they added a page or two of JSF 2.0 (they make references to composite:interface, @SessionScoped annotation and such which are JSF 2 only features) and called it a JSF 2.0 book. So that is the downside.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginners, November 22, 2011
This review is from: Beginning JSF 2 APIs and JBoss Seam (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
If you just started to learn jsf and jboss seam this is for you, everything is explained very clearly. This is a great book especially for those who has experience in other similar technologies and want to learn jsf. You can start writing your projects in a high standard level using this book and in a very short time.
