Pete Muir on Seam 2.1
Oct 30th, 2008 by sharps
Pete Muir (Seam lead and fellow Brit.) has just posted a podcast on JSF Central. Seam is a pretty broad integration framework and it’s hard to talk about Seam without talking about a host of other technologies - Web Beans, Wicket, JSF, GWT, Flex, Facelets - which Pete does in the podcast.
Seam 2.1 was released a couple of weeks ago and in fact there’s already an update (Seam 2.1.0 SP1). Major updates in Seam 2.1 are :
identity management framework with ACL style permissions, an Excel reporting module, an embellished and more flexible seam-gen, first class support for Wicket, built-in support for URL rewriting and a technology preview of JAX-RS (REST) support through the RESTeasy project.
