Hi all,
I am trying to insert items from a putList defined in my tiles.xml
file in a template file. The only way that I can seem to do it is by
using the following process
1. make the putList 'List' accessible on the page with
<tiles:useAttribute name="myPutList" />
2. sending that variable in to a JSTL Core taglib forEach loop
3. using <tiles:insertDefinition name="${putListItem}" />
I know I'm new to struts 2 and using putLists, but it seems like
there's should be a better approach to accessing the items from a
putList defined in a tiles.xml file.
What's the best practice for pulling values out of a putList
(preferably with the struts:iterator tag, if a loop is required)?
Thanks for the help,
Eric Rank
Here's some specific code for reference:
=======================================
tiles.xml
=======================================
<definition name="myTemplate" template="myTemplate.jsp">
<putList name="myPutList">
<add value="aPreviouslyDefinedDefinition" />
<add value="bPreviouslyDefinedDefinition" />
<add value="cPreviouslyDefinedDefinition" />
</putList>
</definition>
=======================================
myTemplate.jsp -- code that works, but requiring JSTL scares me
=======================================
<tiles:useAttribute name="myPutList" />
<c:forEach items="${myPutList}" var="item">
<tiles:insertDefinition name="${item}" />
</c:forEach>
=======================================
myTemplate.jsp -- code that doesn't work
=======================================
<tiles:useAttribute name="myPutList" />
<s:iterator value="%{myPutList}" id="item">
<tiles:insertDefinition name="${item}" />
</s:iterator>
=======================================
myTemplate.jsp -- more code that doesn't work
=======================================
<tiles:attribute name="myPutList" />
