Extending the FreemarkerManager

I am extending to FreemarkerManager to customize the tempalte:

    @Override
    protected Configuration createConfiguration(ServletContext
servletContext) throws TemplateException {
        Configuration config = super.createConfiguration(servletContext);
        ClassTemplateLoader ctl = new ClassTemplateLoader(getClass(), "");
        TemplateLoader[] loaders = new TemplateLoader[] { ctl };
        MultiTemplateLoader mtl = new MultiTemplateLoader(loaders);
        config.setTemplateLoader(mtl);
        System.out.println("PlutoFreeMarkerManager.createConfiguration()");
        return config;
    }

So, i override this protected method right. And then in the struts.xml I set
the following property

    <constant name="struts.freemarker.manager.classname"
value="com.plateau.demo.pluto.servlet.PlutoFreeMarkerManager"></constant>

But, when I try to access the my application it says it could not find the
FTL files.

Keeping that aside, I tried keeping some basic log messages by overriding
the method but no use, the basic issue I am having is how else can I make
struts to use my Custom Freemarker class.

Any ideas, please?

Re: Extending the FreemarkerManager

Posted by MassimoH <Ma...@gmail.com>.
I'm doing this in struts.properties:

struts.freemarker.manager.classname=org.me.MyFreemarkerManager

And Struts 2.0.x is definitely using my custom class. Could you try
configuring that in struts.properties file rather than in struts.xml?
