Ada Server Faces
Ada Server Faces allows to create web applications using the same pattern as the Java Server Faces (See JSR 252, JSR 314 and JSR 344).
It is part of Ada Web Application framework.
Version 1.6.1 - Sep 2024
- Cleanup build environment to drop configure
Using with Alire
If you are using Alire in your project, run the following command within your Alire project to use the library:
alr with serverfaces
If you want to use the Ada Server Faces library in a web server, you must choose a servlet web container that will handle the requests. Two web server implementations are provided:
and you should run one of the following alr command depending on your choice:
alr with servletada_aws
alr with servletada_ews
Using without Alire
If you don't have Alire or want to build and install the library
on a specific place, run a setup command to configure the build as well as installation
directory.
The HAVE_ALIRE configuration allows you to disable the build with Alire.
make setup BUILD=debug PREFIX=/build/install HAVE_ALIRE=no
Since this build method does not verify that all dependencies are met, make sure that you
have already built and install the following components and they are available to gprbuild
through ADA_PROJECT_PATH if needed:
Then build, run the unit tests and install by using:
make
make test
make install
To use the installed libraries, make sure your ADA_PROJECT_PATH contains the directory
where you installed the libraries (configured by the PREFIX=<path> option in the setup phase).
The installed GNAT projects are the same as those used when using Alire.
The installation is done by running the install target:
make install
If you want to install on a specific place, you can change the prefix and indicate the installation
direction as follows:
make install prefix=/opt
