RE: AW: Tiles newbie with questions/errors

Shash,

I had thought about breaking the tiles-defs into snippets but just never
got around to doing it. To do it you'd need something like this:

======================

SNIPPET1:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD
Tiles Configuration 1.1//EN"
 
"http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/tiles-config_1_1.dtd">

<tiles-definitions>

SNIPPET2: <optional, this is a global default definition for others to
extend>
<definition name="default" path="/layouts/defaultLayout.jsp">
  <put name="title" value="My Title"/>
  <put name="header" value="/tiles/header.jsp"/>
  <put name="footer" value="/tiles/footer.jsp"/>
  <put name="message" value="/tiles/message.jsp"/>  
</definition>

**APP-SPECIFIC TILE DEFS HERE**

SNIPPET3:
</tiles-definitions>

=========================

SAMPLE APP_SPECIFIC TILE DEF (from app-register):

 <definition name="register.Default" extends="default">
  <put name="message" value="/tiles/registerMessage.jsp"/>
 </definition>
 <definition name="register.Register" extends="register.Default">
  <put name="body" value="/register/register.jsp"/>  
 </definition>
 <definition name="register.Login" extends="register.Default">
  <put name="body" value="/register/login.jsp"/>
 </definition>
 <definition name="register.SendPassword" extends="register.Default">
  <put name="body" value="/register/sendpassword.jsp"/>
 </definition>
 <definition name="register.ChangePassword" extends="register.Default">
  <put name="body" value="/register/changepassword.jsp"/>
 </definition>

Lou/Gene,

It's pretty trivial to add tiles-defs.xml in the build process.  If you
are
familiar with what pieces need to be broken out in snippets (like we
have
snippets for struts-config.xml) that need to be assembled on a per-app
basis,
please advise.  I'll incorporate into build system. 

This is good timing anyway, since someone that looks very much like me
needs
to experiment with tiles on a new project.

build system this probably won't help. But using the 2.1-dev system, I
had to
add a step to the keel_bundle_client:buildconfigstruts target in
$KEEL_HOME/keel-build/import/keel-bundle-client.xml. I keep my
tiles-defs.xml
file in $KEEL_HOME/clnt-struts/conf/client/webapp and this is how I got
it to
deploy:
