 public abstract class Application extends Object Application represents a per-web-application singleton object where applications based on JavaServer Faces (or implementations wishing to provide extended functionality) can register application-wide singletons that provide functionality required by JavaServer Faces. Default implementations of each object are provided for cases where the application does not choose to customize the behavior. The instance of Holds webapp-wide resources for a JSF application. There is a single one of these for a web application, accessable viaApplicationis created by calling thegetApplication()method ofApplicationFactory. Because this instance is shared, it must be implemented in a thread-safe manner.FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication() In particular, this provides a factory for UIComponent objects. It also provides convenience methods for creating ValueBinding objects. See Javadoc of JSF Specification

- The processAction()method must next determine the logical outcome of this event, as follows:
- If the originating component has a non-null actionproperty, retrieve theMethodExpressionfrom the property, and callinvoke()on it. Convert the returned value (if any) to a String, and use it as the logical outcome.
- Otherwise, the logical outcome is null.
- The processAction()method must finally retrieve theNavigationHandlerinstance for this application and callNavigationHandler.handleNavigation(jakarta.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)passing:
- the FacesContextfor the current request
- If there is a MethodExpressioninstance for theactionproperty of this component, the result of callingExpression.getExpressionString()on it, null otherwise
- the logical outcome as determined above
 Note that the specification for the default ActionListenercontiues to call for the use of a deprecated property (action) and class (MethodExpression). Unfortunately, this is necessary because the default ActionListener must continue to work with components that do not implementActionSource2, and only implementActionSource.
