You remember wrong! You cannot request a Tiles definition directly. You
have at least to write a simple JSP page with <tiles:insert> tag.
You can invoke a Tiles definition directly only through a forward, if
you are using TilesRequestProcessor

Thanks Antonio,
Actually in my application I didn't allow the user to expose any jsp using
the action. I used this techniques for a certain type of pages using a
specific pattern in the generic action.
So, I think it is more secure.
Thanks.

Uh at a first look, I did not like your solution, because I thought that
it could break security, that it is just like exposing JSP pages without
passing through an action. But then I thought "hey wait a moment, if I
want to expose a definition, I NEED to call it 'viewSomething.page' and
not 'blahblah'", so security is preserved if the programmer knows what
to do.
Congratulations, I really liked your solution!

I solved the problem
I think you are right, I can not call any tiles definition directly without
calling an action
I made a generic action definition to view my pages

ActionForm and JavaBean Specifications
Posted by Carl Smith <cc...@yahoo.com>.
JavaBeans Specification doesn't allow more than one setter method (with different argument signatures) for the same property, in other words, JavaBeans specification doesn't allow the method overloading for property setters, does this also apply for Struts ActionForms? Is so, why I did have an over loaded getter methods in an ActionForm and it works fine?
Thanks.

indexed property validation error:java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
Posted by Carl Smith <cc...@yahoo.com>.
I have a jsp containing three text fields which are indexed property, I needs to validate all the text box contains a value other than null or empth string. When I click on save I got the error (see the bottom). Your helps are highly appreciated!
jsp:

You can use tile definitions as "input" or "forward" attribute values in
your Struts config file; is that what you mean?

I think you should add an action in the action-mappings section for
loginPage action. You request have not been processed by tiles yet.
