Question about JspTilesViewHandlerImpl
So far I've had some success using JspTilesViewHandlerImpl but I think
I might be running into a problem. I'd like to use a series of
"nested" tiles. See my sample tiles-defnitions.xml below ...
<definition name="simple.view" path="/jsp/layouts/simple-layout.jsp">
<put name="header" value="/jsp/header.jsp" />
<put name="status" value="/jsp/version.jsp" />
<put name="main" value="document.view" />
</definition>
<definition name="document.view" path="/jsp/layouts/document-layout.jsp">
<put name="summarySection" value="/jsp/sections/summary-section.jsp" />
<put name="detailSection" value="/jsp/sections/detail-section.jsp" />
</definition>
Basically, the "main" section of my one tile refers to another tile.
I'm having problems getting this working. Should this be possible
with JspTilesViewHandlerImpl? Does is matter if the pages contained
in the secondary view contain faces tags or not?
Thanks,
sean

Matthias,
I finally got a chance to try your example at home. It worked without
a hitch! Thanks for helping me out with it.

Yes, it is JSR-168 Pluto portletContainer. No i do not use Jetspeed
portal bridge. Too much technology and patchworks are not good. I just
want it simple and standard ;-) so the portal presentation engine is
Jsf+Tile (NOT J2), the flow between portal layer and portlet container
is commons-chain CoR (where Shale will fit in). Technically, we make
portlets as a business layer, completely separated from the web layer.
We build our own portlet framework based on request/response CoR to wrap
around Pluto 1.1, and this is where i want struts-Jericho establish a
de-facto portlet framework (based on CoR). I use part of J2 security
framework and waiting for its JCR CMS. Many interesting things will happen.

you wrote about *portal* is it a web app in sort of JSR_168 ?
If yes, are you using the bridge for MyFaces from Jetspeed2 folks?

We are about to release MyFaces_1.0.8beta
Beta, because we haven't passed TCK yet.
The source version is an RC for 1.0.8beta :-)

Yes. The version of myfaces i used was old and my prototype is very
complex. I need to get back to the basic simple things. Based on what
you put together i think myfaces + tiles (nice that it can go to
non-tile page) is ready for a portal page. I will update the community

BaTien,
here is an updated MyFaces Tiles sample:
http://www.apache.org/~matzew/myfaces-tiles-example.war
It includes some <h:commandLink/>(with action) and one
<h;commandButton/> with action AND <f:actionListener/>
It is working for me. Perhaps you give it a try.
Btw. to the logfile you sent, I saw net.sourceforge.***
packages there. Could you please try the myfaces.jar
from the sample? It contains apache_packages;
It includes also the JSF_API and all extentions
from MyFaces
Thanks,
Matthias

Matthias:
Could you please put <h:commandButton> or <h:commandLink> with
actionListener and action attributes in header.jsp (or menu.jsp) of the
template layout and in page1.jsp of page1.tiles and see if the commands
under the inserted page1.jsp properly picks up the action attribute.
Thanks. This is the minimum solution i need to get page1.tiles as a
portal page. Any suggestion to make jsf UI working throughout page1.tiles?

RE: Question about JspTilesViewHandlerImpl

Sean,
I just played abit with what you posted here.
I tested this:
<definition name="layout.example" path="/template/template.jsp" >
<put name="header" value="/common/header.jsp" />
<put name="menu" value="test" />
</definition>
<definition name="test" path="/template/t1.jsp" >
<put name="foo" value="/foo.jsp" />
<put name="bar" value="/bar.jsp" />
</definition>
<definition name="/page1.tiles" extends="layout.example" >
<put name="body" value="/page1.jsp" />
</definition>
this is working;
tested foo|bar with and without JSF-Tags
btw. in t1.jsp I only used <f:subview/>
the only file, that contains <f:view/> is template.jsp

Sean,
did you get an exception,
when you are using "nested" tiles?
