I'm pretty new in Java World so I might not be that accurate in my question. I'm trying to create a simple maven project that supports jsf in Intellij.
The process I have followed is the following:
- Create New Project
- Maven with archetype maven-archetype-quickstart(maven 3), choosing GroupId and ArtifactId
- After the project has been created right click on the project->Add Framework Support
- I choose Java EE (Java EE 8)->Web Application (versions 4.0) ->JSF (1.2)->Icefaces,Openfaces,Primefaces,Richfaces
- Then Add Configuration->Create New Local Jboss Server (7.5.0.Final-redhat-21) and in Deployment add new artifact->myproject:war exploded
After all these I have the following structure:
In index.xhtml I have:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

xmlns:f="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core">
<f:view>
<h:outputLabel value="Hello, world"/>
</f:view>
</html>
and in pom.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

When I run it what I would expect is an html page that has in body "Hello World" but what I get is the xhtml without the JSF having been rendered.
any help would be appreciated
