Nicolas Le Bas commented on TILES-564: -------------------------------------- A way to do it is to use wildcards: {code} <definition name="t.*" extends="t.container"> <put-attribute name="body" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/{1}.jsp"/> <put-attribute name="title" expression="${song.title} - ${song.author} in ${jukebox.name}"/> <put-attribute name="view" value="{1}"/> </definition> {code} Does it help? > access definition name from ViewPreparer > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: TILES-564 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TILES-564 > Project: Tiles > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: tiles-api > Reporter: Tomasz Ducin > Labels: docuentation, features > > Hi! I've been searching over the web since few days and haven't managed to > find any solution to the problem: how to access the name of the definition > from inside a custom ViewPreparer? There are also unreplied questions on > stackoverflow where people ask about the same > (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15076272/apache-tiles-get-view-name-inside-viewpreparer, > > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10088148/can-i-access-the-apache-tiles-definition-name-inside-a-viewpreparer). > The only workaround that I found is just to pass another attribute to the > definition, so as it looks not too good: > {code} > <definition name="t.song" extends="t.container"> > <put-attribute name="body" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/song.jsp"/> > <put-attribute name="title" expression="${song.title} - > ${song.author} in ${jukebox.name}"/> > <put-attribute name="view" value="song"/> > </definition> > {code} > If this feature is already possible, please let us know. It'd be great if the > docs could be improved in the appropriate chapter. Thank you in advance -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
