How persist an Polygon or Line in JSF app

I'm trying persist an Polygon or multipolygon in JSF application. The database model, classes POJO has been OK, but in JSF/HTML forms, i dont know how proceed to submit an polygon or line string to my Java application.

To persist an openlayers Point i create an javascript action to send the XY to html inputs and after i submit to my java application.

For persisting polygons or other vector shapes, you need to serialize them to a vector format (e.g. GeoJSON, KML) first, then you can send the serialized string to the server and process/save it further.

Luckily, OpenLayers supports many popular vector formats out of the box - check the vector formats example for further instructions.
