Template directory config (struts.ui.templateDir) causes all templates to fail
completely
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-1832
URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1832
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Views
Affects Versions: 2.0.6
Reporter: Brian Pontarelli
Priority: Critical
There are a number of issues regarding themes that need to be addressed. All of
these issues stem from the fact that Struts2 allows a property to move the
location of the theme overrides from /template to anywhere within the web
application. Setting it to something like this causes nothing to work at all.
struts.ui.templateDir=/WEB-INF/template
The first issue is that overrides no longer work because this directory is
assumed to be the directory for ALL templates including the base template being
overridden. All path variables no longer work and the theme no does not pick up
templates from its parent.
The second issue is that some variables are no longer being set, such as the
themeProperties.parent. This is obviously due to the directory problem, but
effects every template file.
So, for all intents and purposes, this configuration parameter doesn't work at
all.
