Add "object" attribute type
---------------------------
Key: TILES-168
URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/TILES-168
Project: Tiles
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: tiles-api, tiles-core
Affects Versions: 2.0.3
Reporter: Antonio Petrelli
Currently, the attribute types can be "string", "definition" and "template".
The type of an attribute can be null, but if an attribute containing an object
as a value is inserted (for example, by using the <tiles:insertAttribute> tag),
the type is evaluated as "string", and its "toString" method is called.
An "object" attribute type should be introduced that, when someone tries to
insert (or render) it, an exception is thrown, since you cannot insert an
object. This kind of attribute can only be imported/used (through the use of
<tiles:importAttribute> or <tiles:useAttribute>) as a bean.
