SpringBeanFacesELResolver()

JSF ELResolver that delegates to the Spring root WebApplicationContext, resolving name references to Spring-defined beans.

Configure this resolver in your faces-config.xml file as follows:

 <application> ... <el-resolver>org.springframework.web.jsf.el.SpringBeanFacesELResolver</el-resolver> </application>

All your JSF expressions can then implicitly refer to the names of Spring-managed service layer beans, for example in property values of JSF-managed beans:

 <managed-bean> <managed-bean-name>myJsfManagedBean</managed-bean-name> <managed-bean-class>example.MyJsfManagedBean</managed-bean-class> <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope> <managed-property> <property-name>mySpringManagedBusinessObject</property-name> <value>#{mySpringManagedBusinessObject}</value> </managed-property> </managed-bean>

with "mySpringManagedBusinessObject" defined as Spring bean in applicationContext.xml:

 <bean id="mySpringManagedBusinessObject" class="example.MySpringManagedBusinessObject"> ... </bean>
