----------------------------

             Summary: OptionsRenderer throws IllegalStateException
                 Key: TILES-572
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TILES-572
             Project: Tiles
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: tiles-extras
    Affects Versions: 3.0.1
         Environment: Spring 3.2.4 / Tiles 3.0.1
            Reporter: Eric B


Essentially, the error I get when trying to use the OptionsRenderer is:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: A matching list-attribute name="my_opts" must be defined.

I tried to follow as best as possible the instructions on the http://tech.finn.no/2012/07/25/the-ultimate-view-tiles-3/4/ site, but the instructions seem rather old and obsolete and some classes referenced no longer exist in Spring 3.2.4 and/or are configured differently.

>From what I can tell, it would appear that the context that the OptionsRenderer is receiving is not correct; the attributes and cascadedAttributes are both null, even though they should be set.  However, I have been unable to trace why this is happening.

I have tried to instantiate the OptionsRenderer as follows:

public class TilesContainerFactory extends CompleteAutoloadTilesContainerFactory {

	@Override
	protected Renderer createTemplateAttributeRenderer(BasicRendererFactory rendererFactory, ApplicationContext applicationContext, TilesContainer container,
			AttributeEvaluatorFactory attributeEvaluatorFactory) {
		Renderer renderer = super.createTemplateAttributeRenderer(rendererFactory, applicationContext, container, attributeEvaluatorFactory);
		
		// create an Options Renderer
		OptionsRenderer optionsRenderer = new OptionsRenderer(applicationContext, renderer);
		return optionsRenderer;

	}

}

A google search finds other instances of people having trouble instantiating this class as well.
