About Hibernate, Spring and JSF Integration Tutorial
This tutorial explains the integration of Hibernate and
Spring Frameworks into JSF (MyFaces) and building a real world web application.
Integration of these three makes a solid framework for the development of web
application.
This tutorial is for Java architect and developers already
familiar with JEE technologies and having experience in developing applications
using JSF, Spring and Hibernate frameworks.
These three can be used for different purposes according to the
usefulness and power of individual frameworks. Like,
- JSF can be used to implement presentation layer
because it fits into the MVC design pattern.
- Spring Framework can be used in the business logic
tier to manage business objects, resource management.
- Hibernate can be powerful inside the integration
tier. Spring integrates Hibernate very well.
Flow of the application
a) User Registration Module :
In this module the user is asked to fill the required
information like User Name, Password, Email Address and Physical Address. User
is asked to reenter the password to confirm it. In this form all the fields have
individual validation checks so that correct entries should be entered by the
user. So for this we have taken care of some points :
- Make the fields required to fill.
- Confirm password field.
- Check for matching the passwords.
- Email address validation to check the correct format
of email address.
- Individual Messages for every field if there is any
mismatch in the passed information.
This is the main page displayed to the user.
If the user fills any incorrect entry then related
message is shown for that particular field, like below :
If the user is already registered with the site then a
message flashes as in the figure below :
If the registration process completes successfully then
the screen below appears :
b) User Login Module
In this module, the user is asked to fill its user ID
and password to proceed further in the application. If the user is not registered yet then
there is a link "New User?" to register such users.
If you quickly want to download and test the
application, try Downloading the full code

In the next section we will discuss the architecture of
the application.
