Samples

The Samples Gallery offers: Development Strategies - Address Book The Address Book Sample illustrates accessing multiple Web Services in one application. Migration - Stock Quote The Stock Quote Sample illustrates migration of a stock quote client from SOAP to Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC). WebSphere supports Web Services for J2EE (JSR 109) which builds on a client-programming model on JAX-RPC. Faces Client - Sample Portfolio The Faces Client - Sample Portfolio is a sample application that demonstrates the use of faces client components. The Hello World Sample demonstrates how the faces client framework keeps a data model consistent in the browser. The Faces Client - Sample Portfolio mimics a web-based portfolio management application. The goal is to enable users to view all their portfolios, navigate through them, display them graphically, and have them updated on a regular basis with current stock prices as delivered to the page by a Web service. Users will also be able to change quantities on their stocks for analysis purposes. The Hello World Sample demonstrates the power of the Faces Client - Sample Portfolio framework by showing an MVC (Model View Controller) setup on a page with a very simple model and using two input fields as the controls.
