| <p class="intro"> |
| NetBeans IDE delivers excellent support for developing Web and server side applications |
| that utilize the Java EE platform. The IDE support has been developed in close |
| cooperation with the Java EE and GlassFish teams to provide the tightest integration and |
| easiest possible use of the Java EE specification. Concequently, if you are new to the |
| Java EE specification and framework, using NetBeans IDE is the best way to quickly learn and |
| become productive in Java EE programming. |

| <h2>Support for Java Enterprise Edition 7</h2> |
| <p> |
| NetBeans IDE provides complete support for |
| the latest Java EE 7 standards, including support for JSF 2.2 (Facelets), |
| Java Persistence 2.1 and Contexts and Dependency |
| Injection 1.1, <a href="web-services.html">JAX-RS and JAX-WS based Web services</a>, |
| and the older Java EE 6 and Java EE 5 platforms.<br/><br/> |
| The support provided in the IDE ranges from |
| wizards that can be used to quickly create the application, |
| editor support in generating Java EE artefacts and consuming them, |
| configuring the applications, and |
| build, deployment, execution and testing support. |
| With all of these capabilities, your efforts will be |
| focused on implementing the business logic aspects of your application.<br/><br/> |

| <h2>Simplified EJB Development</h2> |
| <p> |
| The IDE supports the latest EJB 3.2 specification, including in web application projects. |
| The EJB project file wizard provides options for creating Session beans |
| including Singleton session beans, |
| Message Driven beans for processing asynchronous messages, |
| as well as Timer session beans for working with timed notifications. |
| You can use a wizard to easily create a Session Bean for an entity class including |
| the appropriate annotations and commonly used default methods. |
| Beans can be exposed with a local interface or a no-interface view. There is support |
| also for calling EJB beans using code-insertion wizards in the editor<br/><br/> |

| <h2>JSF Development</h2> |
| <p> |
| NetBeans IDE supports the latest JavaServer Faces (JSF) 2.2 |
| standard, as well as the older 2.1 and earlier standards. |
| NetBeans IDE supports Facelets, the official view technology for JSF 2.2. You can |
| create a new web application project based on the Facelets framework and work with |
| standard JSF reference implementation components.<br/><br/> |
| The IDE also supports various JSF component libraries (<b>PrimeFaces, RichFaces, ICEfaces</b>) |
| that can simplify the development of Facelets pages. Code wizards and templates |
| are included for generating PrimeFaces applications, with database |
| interaction code included.<br/><br/> |

| <h2>JPA Support</h2> |
| <p> |
| The IDE provides tools to work with Java Persistence API 2.1. Wizards enable |
| you to generate entity classes from a database, and a JavaServer Faces CRUD |
| (Create Retrieve Update Delete) application from entity classes. The IDE supports |
| all types of entity relationships (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and |
| many-to-many) and all types of primary keys (single-column, composite, and |
| generated). The IDE also provides templates and graphic editors for creating and |
| maintaining persistence units. |
| </p> |
| <p>The IDE now has a stand alone JPQL editor where |
| you can run your JPQL query directly from the IDE. |

| for JPQL keywords. For managed entities, it can provide you SQL representation |
| of your JPQL query if eclipselink or hibernate provider is used. It can also hint at what is |
| wrong with your JPQL query. |
