Example Application

Let us create a test JSF application to test the above tag.

Step	Description
1	Create a project with a name helloworld under a package com.tutorialspoint.test as explained in the JSF - First Application chapter.
2	Modify home.xhtml as explained below. Keep the rest of the files unchanged.
3	Create result.xhtml in the webapps directory as explained below.
4	Create UserData.java as a managed bean under package com.tutorialspoint.test as explained below.
5	Compile and run the application to make sure the business logic is working as per the requirements.
6	Finally, build the application in the form of war file and deploy it in Apache Tomcat Webserver.
7	Launch your web application using appropriate URL as explained below in the last step.

UserData.java

package com.tutorialspoint.test;

import java.io.Serializable;

import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped;

@ManagedBean(name = "userData", eager = true)
@SessionScoped
public class UserData implements Serializable {
   private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
   private int age;
  
   public int getAge() {
      return age;
   }
   
   public void setAge(int age) {
      this.age = age;
   }  
}

      <h:form>
         <h:inputText id = "ageInput" value = "#{userData.age}" 
            label = "age" >
            <f:validateLongRange minimum = "5" maximum = "200" />
         </h:inputText>			
         <h:commandButton value = "submit" action = "result"/>
         <h:message for = "ageInput" style = "color:red" />
      </h:form>  
   
   </h:body>
</html>

result.xhtml

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

   <h:body>
      <h2>Result</h2>
      Age:  #{userData.age}    
   </h:body>
</html>

Once you are ready with all the changes done, let us compile and run the application as we did in JSF - First Application chapter. If everything is fine with your application, this will produce the following result.

Enter an invalid value. Following will be the output.

Enter a valid value. Following will be the output.
