RichFaces is an open source Ajax-enabled component library for JavaServer Faces, hosted by JBoss. It allows easy integration of Ajax capabilities into enterprise application development. RichFaces is more than just a component library for JavaServer Faces. It adds: * Skinability (easily change and update application look and feel) * Component Development Kit (CDK) to assist in constructing JavaServer Faces components * Dynamic Resource Framework * Both page wide, and component based Ajax control components. == History == RichFaces originated from the Ajax4jsf framework which Alexander Smirnov designed and implemented.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jsfone.com/blog/max_katz/2008/08/ajax4jsf_and_richfaces__historical_perspective.html ) 〕 In the autumn of 2005 Smirnov joined Exadel and continued to develop the framework. In March 2006 Exadel released the first version of what would become Ajax4jsf. Later in the same year, Exadel VCP was split off and the Ajax4jsf framework and RichFaces was born. While RichFaces provided out-of-the-box components (a "component-centric" Ajax approach, where components do everything you need), Ajax4jsf provided page-wide Ajax support. Developers specify which parts of the page the server should process after some client-side user actions and which parts should be updated after processing. Ajax4jsf became an open-source project hosted on java.net, while RichFaces became a commercial JSF component library. In March 2007 JBoss (a division of Red Hat from 2006) and Exadel signed a partnership agreement whereby Ajax4jsf and RichFaces would come under the JBoss umbrella as "JBoss Ajax4jsf" and as "JBoss RichFaces". RichFaces would now also become open-source and free. In September 2007 JBoss and Exadel decided to merge Ajax4jsf and RichFaces under the RichFaces name. It made sense as both libraries were now free and open-source. Having just one product solved many existing version- and compatibility-issues, such as which version of Ajax4jsf would work with which version of RichFaces. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「RichFaces」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
