I saw a post on the mailing list archives regarding nested tiles. I see that
they have been added over the years, and wanted to know how to implement
them in the JSP page.
For example, if I have a subMenu in the Tiles, then how do I then get the
contents of the subMenu in the JSP page using either the struts or jstl tag
libraries?
I can see the List in my jsp page if I simply say <c:out value="${item}"/>,
but the question is how to expose each elemnt of the list (the subMenu) to
use the links and values from the subMenu?
Thanks for your help,
Elie Ciment

Hello,
It is not possible in the actual version. The limitation comes from the parser
which doesn't implement the correct rules.
It will be possible in the next release. I have quickly implemented and tested
the behavior, but have no time to test and release all the Tiles distribution
today. So, I let you an access to the modified version :
http://www.lifl.fr/~dumoulin/tiles/temp/
<http://www.lifl.fr/%7Edumoulin/tiles/temp/> .
I will not be at my office until the 12 of June, so the official
release will not
happen before this date.
Now it needs a Tiles to render the nested lists as a nested menus. If you
develop a generic one and would like to donate it ...
Hope this help,
Cedric
The nested sub menu definition will looks like :
<!-- Test nested list -->
<definition name="test.nested.list" path="/layouts/vboxLayout.jsp" >
<putList name="list" >
<item value="item1" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
<item value="item2" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
<item value="item3" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
<putList name="list" >
<item value="nested.item1" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
<putList name="list" >
<item value="nested.nested.item1
" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
<item value="nested.nested.item2" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
</putList>
<item value="nested.item2" link="/examples/tabs.jsp"/>
</putList>
</putList>
</definition>

Cedric,
is there anyway to define nested menu items( meaning submenu) inside the
definition.xml file?
