I use tiles a lot, and if you use a tiles-defs.xml file, you only see the forward to the definition. It would be great to have the outline show which jsp are contained in that definition. At least only the ones that are not inhearited from e.g. a default layout definition. Editing them, or a wizzard is the next step. A nice (exportable!?) image would be great
e.g. a definition in tiles-defs.xml like
<definition
name=”layout”
path=”/layout/layout.jsp”>
<put name=”title” value=”${title}”/>
<put name=”content” value=”${content}”/>
<put name=”banner” value=”/tiles/banner.jsp”/>
<put name=”header” value=”/tiles/header.jsp”/>
<put name=”footer” value=”/tiles/footer.jsp”/>
<put name=”menu” value=”/tiles/menu.jsp”/>
</definition>and an extended definition of
<definition name=”.messageerror” extends=”layout”>
<put name=”title” value=”Message Error page”/>
<put name=”content” value=”/messageerror.jsp”/>
</definition>in combination with an action of
<action
attribute=”sendmessageForm”
input=”sendmessage.jsp”
name=”sendmessageForm”
path=”/sendMessage”
validate=”false”
type=”net.vankuijk.messaging.ebxml.gui.action.SendMessageAction”>
<forward name=”messagesent” path=”.messagesent” />
<forward name=”messageerror” path=”.messageerror” />
</action>Should show an image like i created on http://ronald.vankuijk.net/myeclipse/struts.png
It’s very important for us too (all users from Powerlogic -Brazil)!
We think Tiles is one of the main reasons for using Struts – and we’ll still need it with JSF! We hope to have it in MyEclipse as soon as possible…@support-rkalla wrote:
Good suggestion, anybody else want this?
Yes – very much so. I think that many struts developers would consider Tiles an integral part. Thanks, and keep up the good work.
Guys it looks like Tiles support is planned for 2.8 (May-ish time frame for GA, RC releases before that). Hopefully you can all give us feedback during the 2.8 RCs to help us really get you the support you need.
++1 and my colleagues too. This is a must!
Maybe this was the reason for my comment in https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/struts-config-xml-flow-view-does-not-display-forward-icon/, I wasn’t aware that tiles are ignored in the outline.
