Unfortunately JSF Still has the class loader issue with gorm:sessionFactory, Clearly telling class not found for FacesContextFactory.

However if we remove gorm:sessionFactory then JSF Works. If we remove the Faces Servlet entry from web.xml then Gorm works. But both dont work with each other atleast with this Configuration.

PS: Using grails with the JSF Plugin works, except the gorm constraints getting reported as JSF Validation Errors.

thanks,

Unfortunately doesn't work with JSF still see the Classloader Issue.
Cannot load FacesContextFactory. Though the required jar files are present with the respective Listener entries in web.xml. Not really Sure why this happens. Remove gorm:sessionFactory then JSF Works. Remove the JSF Servlet in web.xml then Gorm works. But Either way doesnt solve my problem.

Have been using Jsf 1.2 with Richfaces.

PS: How ever if we Use the Grails plugin with a Grails Project and Grails Build it works really cool. Except that the error messages are not displayed in the JSF Page, based on the gorm constraints. Not Sure how to Achieve this.

Thanks,
SK

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys, I have been at QCon so sorry for the late responses.

@Dramil Feel free to report a JIRA at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILS or maybe post what your issue is on the mailing list. However, one thing to note is that Web Flow in Grails 1.1 is based on Web Flow 2.0.3 which had significant API changes (especially in testing) over Web Flow 1.0

@AlexanderKl In your first example:

hibernateProperties: [
"hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto": "create",
"hibernate.show_sql": "true"
]

This should be:

hibernateProperties = [ // notice the equals here
"hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto": "create",
"hibernate.show_sql": "true"
]

Ok, when 1.0.4 came out I had to post that upgrading was nothing more than a nightmare so now that 1.1 it out I find myself needed to post and take a 180 and say that upgrading was very smooth this time around. Congrats on the release and making things easy!

Fantastic work, Graeme. Please accept my warmest wishes. I'm really looking forward to designing solutions with Grails 1.1 and beyond. Please keep the component architecture choices limited to Spring and Hibernate with Spring MVC for the web tier. Java EE applications have spun out of control with the massive flexibility offered on the web tier (Spring MVC, Tapestry, JSF, Wicket, Shale, Stripes, Struts, etc.) and the persistence tier (JDBC (with and without Spring), JDO, iBatis, JPA, Hibernate, etc). Who wants this level of complexity? Things can be totally different when moving from one client site to another. I hope Grails keeps the architecture choices limited as they are today. It's truly a pleasure to design and build applications with Grails. Keep up the great work!

Hi Grocher,

It was really nice using the grails 1.1 stable version.

Well while doing my webflow integration test flow test cases i am facing a issue of ViewSelection found as Null. Can you please look into it?

Issue we are facing: In webflow testing their is method named “startFlow()�? (A method of Abstract Class grails.test.WebFlowTestCase) which should ideally return the “ViewSelectionObject�? (as per http://grails.org/Webflow)

But the method is void so it returns the Null Object. So the test case gets failed as it fails to get the view name for executing the next event.

Is this bug in 1.1 or any patch/fix is available.

Thanks, Dramil.
