Release of 2.2.3?

[Keir <ke...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I’m wondering if there are any plans to release Tiles 2.2.3? I’m trying to
build a Spring 3.1 app (which only supports Tiles 2.1.2+) for an OC4J
container, which only supports up to JSP 2.0, meaning that I can't use a
production-ready version of Tiles as 2.1.0+ suffer from
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TILES-514 which is only fixed in the
as yet unreleased 2.2.3 version.

Thanks

Keir

Yes that page also looks to be in agreement with the jira issues.

Ah ha! So the requirements on this page are correct:

http://tiles.apache.org/download.html

But it musta been the other page I saw.

You were correct the first time, the documentation is wrong for
tiles-2.2

http://tiles.apache.org/2.2/framework/getting_started.html

but according to those issues, the requirements section should read the
same as http://tiles.apache.org/framework/getting_started.html

Yea looking more closely at this I was wrong, I thought the site said that
2.2.2 was usable with servlets 2.4, turns out I was mistaken.  Have
reverted to 2.1.4 and everything is working swimmingly, sorry for all the
confusion!

it would be great if i could convince you the pros of our focus on
tiles-3 outweighs any cons of our "beta" label of it.

indeed, i could have read your first msg a little more careful.

I'm a little confused on this front.
According to TILES-270 we upgraded to Servlet 2.5/JSP 2.1 with tiles-2.1
and according to TILES-447 we dropped support for it in tiles-2.2

Hi Mck,

Thanks for the quick response! Tiles 3 is labelled beta on the tiles
website which is why I had avoided it... also looking just now it seems
that Servlet 2.5/JSP 2.1 is required for it?

It is certainly possible to run tiles-3 on spring-3.0 and spring-3.1
But then the spring-tiles integration bundled with spring is no good.
What we did at finn.no is to use just those integration classes found in
spring-3.2. An artifact for just those classes is found here

https://jira.springsource.org/secure/attachment/20120/SPR-8825-0.1-finn.pom 
https://jira.springsource.org/secure/attachment/20121/SPR-8825-0.1-finn-classes.jar


We would rather you upgraded to tiles-3 (that's where our focus is), but
if you can't i can look into making a release of 2.2.3 for you next week…
