Target Product: WFK Product Versions: EAP 6.1, EAP 6.2, WFK 2.5
Summary: The quickstarts demonstrate Java EE 6, RichFaces 4.1, and a few additional technologies from the JBoss stack. They provide small, specific, working examples that can be used as a reference for your own project.
These quickstarts run on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.2 and WFK 2.5 or later. We recommend using the JBoss EAP ZIP file. This version uses the correct dependencies and ensures you test and compile against your runtime environment.
The list of all currently available quickstarts can be found here: http://site-jdf.rhcloud.com/quickstarts/get-started/. The table lists each quickstart name, the technologies it demonstrates, gives a brief description of the quickstart, and the level of experience required to set it up. For more detailed information about a quickstart, click on the quickstart name.
The applications these projects produce are designed to be run on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.1 or later.

You can also use JBoss Developer Studio or Eclipse to run the quickstarts.
The quickstarts in the RichFaces project are designed to use artifacts in Maven Central. There is no need to configure Maven before you build and deploy the quickstarts.
The root folder of each individual quickstart contains a README file with specific details on how to build and run the example. In most cases you do the following:
Before you deploy a quickstart, in most cases you need a running JBoss EAP server. To start the JBoss EAP server with the default profile:
-
Open a command prompt and navigate to the root of the JBoss server directory.
-
The following shows the command line to start the JBoss server:
For Linux: JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.sh For Windows: JBOSS_HOME\bin\standalone.bat
See the README file in each individual quickstart folder for specific details and information on how to run and access the example.
