Where is faces configured in a forge app?

[damaru]

Hi,

I just started playing with forge and as7. I built my first app based on a database, and it's working.

I see that most (if not all) of the links start with the /faces/ prefix. I'm trying to figure out where this is configured. In other faces apps I created, I had to have entries in my web.xml that mapped /faces/ to the faces servlet. The web.xml that forge generates doesn't have any servlet mappings at all, and I can't find anything in the as7 configuration that would set that up.

Are there servlets like faces that are preconfigured somehow in as7? How and where is that done?

Thanks

There is no need to configure JSF in a Servlet 3.0 container, a ServletContainerInitializer will do the work for you registering the FacesServlet for *.faces, *.jsf and faces/*

Great, thanks! I'll have to read up on Servlet 3.0.
