----------------------------------------------
Please note, the web.xml needs to be modified. The old filters are still
supported, so to take advantage of the new functionality, you should do the
following:
<filter>
<filter-name>struts-prepare</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>actionPackages</param-name>
<param-value>net.stonescape</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter>
<filter>
<filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.opensymphony.sitemesh.webapp.SiteMeshFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter>
<filter-name>struts-execute</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsExecuteFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>struts-prepare</filter-name>

<filter-mapping>

<dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>struts-execute</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<servlet>

<init-param>

</init-param>

</servlet>

</servlet-mapping>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JspSupportServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.struts2.views.JspSupportServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<listener>
<listener-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.listener.StrutsListener</listener-class>
</listener>
Best of luck. I have been testing this for months, and it is a real benison!
> Full integration with SiteMesh 2 + Freemarker 2.4.2 + Velocity 1.3 ,

> Key: WW-3296
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3296
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Plugin - SiteMesh
> Affects Versions: 2.1.8
> Reporter: Christian Wolfgang Stone
> Assignee: Christian Wolfgang Stone
> Fix For: 2.1.9
>
>
> Current issues include:
> - limiting decorators to use 1 technology (Freemarker, Velocity, or JSP)
> only. SiteMesh should be able to use any of the three decorators as definied
> in decorators.xml
> - velocity struts tags and toolchain not available to velocity
> decorators, .
> - freemarker statics and manager configuration not available to
> freemarker decorators.
> - in general, the decorators use a completely different manager.
> - problems mixing freemarker decorators with velocity/jsp results and
> vice versa.
> This improvement/patch will use the SiteMeshFilter provided by SiteMesh and
> implement a Freemarker and Velocity dispatcher that uses the appropriate
> Managers in Struts 2 to create their contexts and configurations, as well as
> share the same model when available. If the context has not been created for
> that technology, the Struts Manager will be asked to construct one. Since
> many of these configurations were constructed multiple times, there should be
> a small speed improvement as well. Once implemented, there will not be a
> restriction on decorators.xml on which technology is being used, and the same
> context will be available to the decorators as is available to the results.
> The new web.xml will look like this (configuration to use all three
> technologies).
