If the "forward" attribute of the action element can take both an actual
path or a tiles definition to forward to, shouldn't the global forwards
element have similar functionality?
In Chuck Cavaness's book (Programming Jakarta Struts), he attempts to do
this on page 347. I just can't get it to work. Is this perhaps
functionality which is now broken?

I have successfully set up tiles using a tiles-def.xml file. In this file,
I have set up a definition for "my.default".
I have been successfully able to view this layout by inserting the following
code into a jsp:
<%@ taglib uri="struts-html" prefix="html"%>
<%@ taglib uri="struts-bean" prefix="bean"%>
<%@ taglib uri="struts-tiles" prefix="tiles"%>
<tiles:insert definition="my.default"/>
Again, this works fine. I have been attempting to declare a global forward
mapping for the same layout:
<global-forwards>
<forward name="welcome" path="my.default" redirect="false"/>
</global-forwards>
I have inserted the following code into a jsp file to test the forwards:
<%@ taglib uri="struts-logic" prefix="logic"%>
<logic:forward name="welcome"/>
When I hit the page containing this code, Tomcat gives me a 404 ("The
requested resource (/myapp/my.default) is not available."). Whats happening
here?
