JavaFX with JBoss Seam

maxkatz JavaFX, RIA March 12, 2009 2 Minutes

This is an introductory post that shows how to use JavaFX with JBoss Seam. Communication between JavaFX and server (Seam) is done via Flamingo RIA framework. Flamingo, not only provides Flex to server communications like Granite DS and Blaze DS, but also provides JavaFX to server communications.

JavaFX:

package com.exadel.flamingo.javafx;


import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.text.Text;
import javafx.scene.text.Font;
import javafx.scene.layout.HBox;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.text.TextOrigin;
import javafx.ext.swing.SwingButton;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.scene.control.TextBox;

import com.exadel.flamingo.javafx.samples.helloworld.javafx.HelloworldClient;

class Hello {
    public var name:String;
    public var str:String;
}
var helloModel = new Hello();

HelloworldClient.setServerUrl(FX.getArgument('uri') as java.lang.String);

var helloText: TextBox = TextBox {
    text: bind helloModel.name with inverse
    columns: 7
    selectOnFocus:true
}

var helloLabel = Text{
    y:8
    font: Font { name:"sansserif", size: 12 }
    fill: Color.BLACK
    content: bind "Server says: {helloModel.str}"
    textOrigin: TextOrigin.TOP
}

var helloButton = SwingButton  {
    text:"Say Hello!"
    action: function(){
        helloModel.str = HelloworldClient.CLIENT.hello(helloModel.name);
    }
}

Stage {
    title: "Helloworld Sample"
    width: 200
    height: 150
    scene: Scene {
        content: VBox {
            translateX: 5
            translateY: 5
            spacing: 10
            content: [
                HBox {
                    content: helloText
                    spacing: 10
                },
                HBox {
                    content: helloButton
                    spacing: 10
            	},
                HBox {
                    content: helloLabel
                    spacing: 10
            }]

        }
    }
}

HelloAction interface:

package com.exadel.flamingo.javafx.samples;

import org.jboss.seam.annotations.remoting.WebRemote;

public interface IHelloAction {

    @WebRemote
    public String hello(String name);
}

HelloAction (Seam component):

package com.exadel.flamingo.javafx.samples;

import org.jboss.seam.ScopeType;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Name;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Scope;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.remoting.WebRemote;

@Scope(ScopeType.STATELESS)
@Name("helloAction")
public class HelloAction implements IHelloAction {

    @WebRemote
    public String hello(String name) {
        return "Hello, " + name;
    }
}

Helloworld client:

package com.exadel.flamingo.javafx.samples.javafx;

import com.caucho.hessian.client.HessianProxyFactory;
import com.exadel.flamingo.javafx.samples.IHelloAction;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;

public class HelloworldClient {

    public static HelloworldClient CLIENT;
    private IHelloAction _service;
    private String _url;

    private HelloworldClient(String string) {
        _url = string;
    }
    public static void setServerUrl(String url) {
        CLIENT = new HelloworldClient(url);
    }
    private IHelloAction getService() {
        if (_service == null) {
            try {
                HessianProxyFactory factory = new HessianProxyFactory();
                _service = (IHelloAction) factory.create(IHelloAction.class, _url);
            } catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
                System.out.println(ex);
            }
        }
        return _service;
    }
    public String hello(String s) {
        return getService().hello(s);
    }
}

JSP file:






Helloworld

very interesting,

I am close from making it work either with Hessian 1 or 2

but I seems I am missing something about the protocol handshake between the client and the server :

On the client side :

HessianProxyFactory factory = new HessianProxyFactory();
// the following 3 lines are uncommented if we use Hessian2
//factory.setHessian2Reply(true);
//factory.setHessian2Request(true);
//factory.setDebug(true);
_service = (IHelloAction) factory.create(IHelloAction.class, _url);

On the server side :

public interface IHelloAction {

@WebRemote
public String hello(String name);
}

@Scope(ScopeType.STATELESS)
@Name(“helloAction”)
public class HelloAction implements IHelloAction {

@WebRemote
public String hello(String name) {
return “Hello, ” name;
}
}

If I use hessian-3.2.1.jar
(in both client
and server side) I get the following error on the server side :

19:43:27,331 ERROR [ContextualHttpServletRequest] ended request due to

If I use hessian-3.1.6.jar
or
hessian-3.1.3.jar
(in both client and server side) there is no error on the server side
BUT I get the following error on the client side :

Have we forgotten something on the client side or the server side ?

Vincent – your comment ended up in spam, I only saw it today, had to approve it manually. Are you still facing this problem?
