Spring One : JSF and Spring

Colin is a great speaker, though his voice is so soothing that you'd fall asleep :P.

First a general presentation of web frameworks and Spring /JSF.

Interesting point: when using scopes like session, request, be careful of the scoping of injections.
For example if you inject a request scoped bean in a session scoped bean, the request scoped bean will only be created once per session... not the expected behaviour!

there's now an <aop:scoped-proxy /> that provides a proxy of the bean that recreates the bean for example for each new request.

Then Colin goes on with the longest silence in a conference ever while going through his file system... very strange!

Then the rest of the talk describes the variable resolvers, navigation handlers... etc

Colin really talks more about Spring Web flow than Spring with JSF anyway.
