Part 3 - Integrating Tiles, Thymeleaf and Spring MVC 3

In this post I will demonstrate how to integrate Apache Tiles with Thymeleaf. This is very simple. The first step is to include the tiles and thymeleaf-tiles extension dependencies. I will include them in the pom.xml. Note we wil lbe using Tiles 2.2.2 Listing 1 - parent/pom.xml --- thymeleaf-tiles and tiles dependencies <!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> <!-- Tiles --> <!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId> <artifactId>tiles-core</artifactId> <version>${tiles.version}</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId> <artifactId>tiles-template</artifactId> <version>${tiles.version}</version> <scope>compile</s

Getting started with Prime faces 2

Prime faces is an amazing JSF framework from Cagatay Civici ( http://cagataycivici.wordpress.com/ ). Its wonderful because it is easy to use, minimal dependencies, has probably the widest set of controls among all JSF frameworks, easy to integrate with Spring (including Spring Security) , Java EE EJBs, and last but not the least mobile UI support. So I decided to give Prime faces a try, before selecting it to use in my projects. Step 1 – Create Maven 2 project As a first step to integrating Prime faces, create a Maven 2 project in Eclipse. You will need to select ‘maven-archetype-webapp’. Step 2 – Add repositories and dependencies in pom.xml I will be using Prime faces 2 with JSF 2 on Tomcat 6. Since the dependencies for Prime Faces and JSF 2 (JSF 2.0.3 is required) are available on different repositories, I will add them to my pom file first. The listing below shows my pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/X
