This is a continuation of the entry http://www.theasolutions.com/roller/karthik/entry/setup_web_application_using_jboss
Now we make the following assumptions.
- Hibernate will be used as the JPA implementation provider.
- The page navigation rules are to be defined in pages.xml rather than in faces-config.xml
- MySQL is the database used
- We will be using RichFaces along with Mojarra, the JSF RI and Facelets
Hence based on these assumptions the configuration files and Maven pom.xml are as provided below. [If you wish to use any other combination like TopLink, ICEFaces please update the configuration files accordingly ]

Please note that the versions of the implementations is not to be changed [to any of the later versions]. If changes issues due to incompatibility will pop up. Let us look at basic CRUD in the next post of the JBoss Seam series.
