JSF 2.0 and Multiple Submission problem

Somebody told me that JSF 2.0 automatically handles multiple submission problem. Is that right? If yes, how does JSF 2.0 do that? If no, what are the things that must taken care of, so that you don't leave any pitfall while handling this problem?

Thanks.

Solution

  • This is requested and maintained by JSF spec issue 559. As it currently stands, it's not there yet, but it is targeted for the upcoming JSF 2.2.

    Until then, the Seam's <s:token> is your best solution which not only prevents CSRF (which is not strictly necessary anymore since JSF 2.1 as per JSF impl issue 812), but also double submits.
