Passing data between managed components in JSF

Question

Is it actually possible to pass any data between managed components in JSF? If yes, how to achieve this?

Could anyone provide any sample?

Answer 1

To add to BalusC's answer, if you are using a dependency-injection framework (spring, guice, etc.), or if using JSF 2.0, you can have one managed bean set into the other using just:

@Inject
private Bean2 bean2;

(or the appropriate annotation based on your DI framework)
