public @interface View

    The presence of this annotation on a target (type, method, parameter or field) within an application is used to indicate that this target is somehow handling a Faces View Id or Ids.

    The exact way in which such view is handled depends on the annotated element in question.

        The Faces View Id pattern can represent a single view, such as "/index.xhtml", or a pattern like "/foo/bar/*". Though the exact interpretation of the Faces View Id for a single view is ultimately defined by the annotated element, in general it should align with the return value from an action expression (see ActionSource2.setActionExpression(jakarta.el.MethodExpression)
        Returns:
