Christoph Nenning commented on WW-4161:
---------------------------------------
Seems reasonable to me. It helps in the case that there is a tiles-definiton in
tiles.xml but the action is just not configured to use that definition.
As I read "conventions" in the title of this issue I was thinking something
like:
- look if there is a tiles-layout that can be used
- look if that layout has an attribute like "content" or "body"
- look if there is a jsp or ftl with the name of the action
- create a new tiles-definition with found layout and set content/body to
jsp/ftl
But actually I'm not a big fan of such conventions as it makes it hard to
predict what happens. I prefer to explicitly configure stuff with annotations,
as in WW-4594.
> Incorporate tiles3 into conventions, tutorial (and add code to tiles3 plugin)
