Porting @ViewScoped JSF Annotation to CDI to use it with Primefaces

Today I spent several hours to use the right scope with Primefaces and CDI/Weld. Finally I found this cool
blog of Steven Verborgh which describes how to create a view scope for CDI.

With this scope a backing bean keeps alive as long as the user stays on the same page/view.

Changing Glassfish EJB Timer from embedded Derby to Oracle

This is a small tutorial to persist the Glassfish EJB Timer to an Oracle DB instead of the Derby file DB. It's pretty simple.

Add a new Connection Pool for your Oracle Timer schema.

Create a table with the following create table script.

CREATE
    TABLE EJB__TIMER__TBL
    (
        TIMERID VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
        BLOB clob,
        INITIALEXPIRATIONRAW number(20),
        SCHEDULE VARCHAR(255),
        INTERVALDURATION number(20),
        OWNERID VARCHAR(255),
        STATE INTEGER,
        LASTEXPIRATIONRAW number(20),
        PKHASHCODE INTEGER,
        CREATIONTIMERAW number(20),
        CONTAINERID number(20),
        PRIMARY KEY (TIMERID)
    );

Then change the JDBC Resource

jdbc/__TimerPool

to your new connection pool.

My Icefaces Showcase

Just deployed my new Icefaces Showcase. In this showcase I implement some solutions from my last icefaces projects. In the first version there's a generic table with configurable columns. It's possible to make columns invisible and change the column order. The columns can be configured in a popup. In the background you can see the effect simultaneously.

I'll be pleased about your feedback.
