In Spring 3 and JSF 2.0 when we wanted to use the JSF view scope we had to introduce custom ViewScope implementation and instruct Spring to pick it up through CustomScopeConfigurer.

Has Spring 4 made any progress in the JSF integration on this front? Or is it still needed to define custom ViewScope implementation to leverage view scope in spring managed beans?

    my very personal impression is that nothing happened and will happen there. jsf moves towards cdi. and for spring i think, jsf does not play a big role anymore. they put more effort into thier newer projects with spring-data and REST-based web technologies. – fischermatte Jul 11 '14 at 21:32

Here is a confirmation from Spring staff of what @fischermatte mentioned: https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-6543

  • Thx for the link, it indeed seems like an official position not to invest too much effort into JSF support. Probably a good thing we decided to go with pure JavaEE for our new JSF based project. – JanM Sep 24 '14 at 17:39
