Here's an untested idea. What if you use a proxy tag to satisfy
overlay's parenting constraints? You'd do something like:
<img:image src="/images/map_01.gif"
dir="generated"
name="map_rendered.jpg"
attributes="alt='A sample image'"
refresh="true"
quality="1.0">
<img:resize scale="100%" />
<!--load all points to map -->
<c:forEach var="poimaps" items="${requestScope.poimaps}">
<imgHelper:proxy>
<img:overlay x="${poimaps.x_id}"
y="${poimpas.y_id}"
color="0xffffff" tolerance="35">
<img:image src="/images/${poimaps.imageName}.gif"/>
</img:overlay>
<imgHelper:proxy>
</c:forEach>
</img:image>
Here's the code for the proxy tag:
package com.directthought.taglibs.image;
import com.mullassery.imaging.Imaging;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import javax.servlet.jsp.JspException;
import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTagSupport;
import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.TryCatchFinally;
import org.apache.taglibs.image.ImageHolder;
public class ProxyTag extends BodyTagSupport implements
TryCatchFinally, ImageHolder {
private ImageHolder ancestor;
public ProxyTag() {
super();
}
public int doStartTag() throws JspException {
this.ancestor = (ImageHolder)findAncestorWithClass(this,
ImageHolder.class);
if (this.ancestor == null) {
throw new JspException("ProxyTag could not find an
ImageHolder ancestor");
}
return EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED;
}
public void doCatch(Throwable t) {
// no-op
}
public void doFinally() {
this.ancestor = null;
}
public BufferedImage getImage() {
return this.ancestor.getImage();
}
public void setImage(BufferedImage image) {
this.ancestor.setImage(image);
}
public Imaging getImaging() {
return this.ancestor.getImaging();
}
}
