Summary: The temperature-converter
quickstart does temperature conversion using an EJB Stateless Session Bean (SLSB), CDI, and a JSF front-end client.
Target Product: WildFly
Source: https://github.com/wildfly/quickstart/
The temperature-converter
example demonstrates the use of an EJB Stateless Session Bean (SLSB) and CDI, accessed using a JSF, and deployed to WildFly Application Server using a WAR archive.
The application does the following:
Convert
, the temperature string is passed to the TemperatureConverter controller (managed) bean.convert()
method of the injected TemperatureConvertEJB (notice the field annotated with @Inject).temperature
field of the managed bean.The application this project produces is designed to be run on WildFly Application Server 11 or later.
All you need to build this project is Java 8.0 (Java SDK 1.8) or later and Maven 3.3.1 or later. See Configure Maven for WildFly 11 to make sure you are configured correctly for testing the quickstarts.
In the following instructions, replace WILDFLY_HOME
with the actual path to your WildFly installation. The installation path is described in detail here: Use of WILDFLY_HOME and JBOSS_HOME Variables.
For Linux: WILDFLY_HOME/bin/standalone.sh
For Windows: WILDFLY_HOME\bin\standalone.bat
mvn clean install wildfly:deploy
This will deploy target/temperature-converter.war
to the running instance of the server.
The application will be running at the following URL: http://localhost:8080/temperature-converter/.
You will be presented with a simple form for temperature conversion.

You can also start the server and deploy the quickstarts or run the Arquillian tests from Eclipse using JBoss tools. For general information about how to import a quickstart, add a WildFly server, and build and deploy a quickstart, see Use JBoss Developer Studio or Eclipse to Run the Quickstarts.
If you want to debug the source code of any library in the project, run the following command to pull the source into your local repository. The IDE should then detect it.
mvn dependency:sources
