Yes +1 for typesafe views. We should also take a look at what we did in CODI.

Agreed - we'll take the best-of-breed approach.

I think the main difference is that seam3 uses enums whereas we had annotated 
interfaces.

Both ways have pros and cons. On the plus side for the interface approach is 
that we are not only typesafe but can also add further annotations like 
@Secured directly at the ViewConfig.

We'll have to dig in here.  A deep-dive into the 
advantages/disadvantages of both approaches.

PS: I like to get back to DS and start massive work next week. I'd like to 
begin with the @ViewScoped Context (including an 'abstract context' framework 
in core) and JSF integration for messages.

For me I'll have some time for this after Java One.

Hello Spikers!

It is indeed great to hear DeltaSpike has progressed far enough along to
look at JSF integration.  I'll free up some cycles to lend a hand here,
as there are some features from Seam Faces that I'd like to see move along.

In particular I like the type-safe "view configuration" feature from
Seam Faces, and would like to see something similar to in DeltaSpike.
With this type-safe view configuration, we were able to set: page
access, url rewriting, some faces-config setttings, and we had a
prototype for configuring view actions.  Doing this in a type-safe
manner, rather than xml, offered a number of advantages -- but I don't
think I need to get into the benefits for type-safety with this crowd ;)

  Hi,

  Very good news for the JSF module !

  Is there somewhere the list of expected features for the JSF module ?

  Here's a list of features that I would personnally use as a JSF
developer in my day to day work (ranking from most used to least used).

  If this list doesn't have any sense to you, please just drop the mail
;)


  * s:viewAction
    For those not having JSF 2.2
  * UIInputContainer

http://docs.jboss.org/seam/3/faces/latest/reference/en-US/html/components.html#UIInputContainer
  * Exception
     JSF ExceptionHandler for DS Exception (c.f. Seam Faces Module)
  * ProjectStage
     Automatically bind to JSF projectStage
  * Locale and MessageResolver
    Automatically bind to JSF locale and message.
  * Scopes (CODI ViewAccess, CODI Conversation, ...)
  * Security
     authentication, El to handle authorization / permission
    something like #{s:hasRole('admin')}, #{identify.login}
    see JSF scenarii in
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DeltaSpike/Security+Module+Drafts
  * Theme handling

http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.2.2.Final/reference/en-US/html/i18n.html#d0e14307
  * Seam Application Framework
     Or something similar / simple to use and understand.

  Objet : [DISCUSS] roadmap for deltaspike-0.4-incubating

  Hi folks!

  It's time to start working on ds-0.4-incubating.


  Here is my personal list of things I like to work on:

  * review/cleanup our JPA module
  * review ConfigurableDataSource in hindsight of JPA in EE6
  * add JSF module
  * migrate over @ViewScoped
  * add ComparableQualifier to the core


  I'd like to start with adding the @ViewScoped stuff (as I wrote the
original parts for both codi and seam3), the ComparableQualifier and later on do
the JPA cleanup.

  What do others like to work on?

  What timeframe do we set for 0.4-incubating?


  LieGrue,
  strub
