Managed Bean Aliasing

This example demonstrates how Clay can use symbols for managed bean aliasing. It also demonstrates how you can define a person's name and reuse the same definitions, constructing and extending two other name combinations within the same page. Each type of name is bound to a different manged bean.

Generic Tiles Like Layouts

This example demonstrates how you can use symbols similar to how tiles are used. There is a generic that defines sections of a typical page having a header, footer, left navbar and body sections. The layout is defined as an HTML template, but the entry point can be a full XML or full HTML template. There is a central Clay configuration that is dedicated to full XML views and a base component definition in the common clay configuration file.
