Introduction
This article depicts how to build a simple registration application base on JBoss Seam 2.0(JSF with Facelets, EJB3, JPA) using NetBeans 6.1, and deploys it on Glassfish v2, MySQL 5.1.
To the demonstration building, I divide the its content into two ways:
Using NetBeans built-in project wizard to create a enterprise application, which includes a ejb project and a web project. You can get the details here.
Using Maven for NetBeans plugin to create a enterprise application, also it includes a ejb project and a web project. This entry will use this way to build the sample application.
All of these, will deploy on Glassfish V2 and use MySQL 5.1 community edition. As I mentioned formerly, this demo using Facelets framework for JSF view definition, the most important thing is it setup with NetBeans IDE with Maven2 support and deploys on Glassfish v2. Although you maybe refer to jee-booking example in JBoss Seam tutorial, there are some practical issues you will occur. So, Just follow me! :-)
Prerequisites
In this sample application, I use Facelets as JSF view definition framework, it is a very elegant presentation for JSF.
Seam glimpse
As we known, Seam is a powerful open source development platform for building rich Internet applications in Java. Seam integrates technologies such as Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX), JavaServer Faces (JSF), Java Persistence (JPA), Enterprise Java Beans (EJB 3.0) and Business Process Management (BPM) into a unified full-stack solution, complete with sophisticated tooling. The simple chart of architectural design will show you about this:
The following demonstration will show you a part of features Seam brought.
Set up SeamMaven application
In this section, I will mention some important notices of creating seam application using NetBeans IDE with Maven.
Create Projects
Open NetBeans IDE, and create a maven application project, named SeamMaven. Changes the packing to pom. Creates three maven application project in SeamMaven root directory, named SeamMaven-ear, SeamMaven-ejb, SeamMaven-war, respectively. And, changes the packing to ear, ejb, war correspondingly.
pom.xml of SeamMaven

Application related configurations and sources
These JavaEE application related configuration files, like ejb-jar.xml, persistence.xml, web.xml faces-config.xml and JBoss Seam application related configuration files, like components.xml, pages.xml and project code sources you can find here.
The End....
In this article, I introduce the basic configurations of an JBoss Seam 2 application, how to build it with NetBeans IDE and maven, and deploy it on Glassfish V2. If you will create your own seam application, the important is the various of configuration files and library dependencies. I think, we should pay more attention on them, and configure them carefully.
Here, you can download the whole sample application and the PDF document of this article.
