My requirement is:
I have a layout: main.layout
main.layout has two layouts: head.content, body.content
...
head.content is decorated w/3 attributes: title, pageCSS, pageJS (all text)
body.content is decorated with 1 attribute: content (jsp)
<definition name="main.layout" template="/tiles/main-layout.jsp">
<put-attribute name="head" value="head.content"/>
<put-attribute name="title" value="test"/>
<put-attribute name="body" value="body.content"/>
<put-attribute name="footer"
value="/res/includes/footer.jsp"/>
<put-attribute name="title" value=""/>
<put-attribute name="pageCSS" value=""/>
<put-attribute name="pageJS" value=""/>
</definition>
<definition name="head.content" template="/tiles/head-content.jsp">
<put-attribute name="title" value="main.layout.title">
<put-attribute name="pageCSS" value="main.layout.pageCSS"/>
<put-attribute name="pageJS" value="main.layout.pageJS"/>
</definition>
Pass-through attributes are not supported in Tiles.
What you can do is creating an extended definition from "head.content"
and apply it.
Correct it this way:
<definition name="main.layout" template="/tiles/main-layout.jsp">
<put-attribute name="head" value="site.index"/>.
<put-attribute name="body" value="body.content"/>
<put-attribute name="footer"
value="/res/includes/footer.jsp"/>
</definition>
<definition name="head.content" template="/tiles/head-content.jsp">
<put-attribute name="title" value="main.layout.title">
<put-attribute name="pageCSS" value="main.layout.pageCSS"/>
<put-attribute name="pageJS" value="main.layout.pageJS"/>
</definition>
<definition name="site.index" extends="head.content".>
<put-attribute name="title" value="The home page title"/>
<put-attribute name="pageCSS" value="(no css)"/>
<put-attribute name="pageJS" value="(no js)"/>
</definition>
And remember: a definition cannot be used as a template!
