From Zero to PrimeFaces Hero on JBoss 7.1 with Hibernate, MySQL, Eclipse Indigo and JBoss Tools

From Zero to PrimeFaces Hero is a series of articles, in which I indented to explain how to create a full CRUD webapp in PrimeFaces, Hibernate, MySQL, Eclipse Indigo and JBoss Tools. I will describe the way of building a simple CRUD application, which will be deployed on JBoss 7.1. The full path of builiding an application will be described as follows:

• Configuring IDE. In this case, it will be Eclipse Indigo,


• Designing and implementing data model in Hibernate,


• Synchronizing MySQL scheme with Hibernate Entities,


• Building ManageBeans for business logic and integrating it with data model layer,


• Building JSF interfaces and integrating it with ManageBeans,


• Artifacts deployment on JBoss 7.1 Application Server.

After reading this series you will be able to build a full-featured CRUD JSF application backed by MySQL database with Hibernate mapping. Stay tuned for the next article on this topic.
