Issues with Struts 2.0.9 upgrade

[Dave <sn...@gmail.com>]

I tried to upgrade to 2.0.9 but ran into some issues regarding Tiles.

I tried to use the Tiles 2.0.4 jars that come with Struts 2.0.9, but I
found that the TilesListener class no longer exists. Anybody know what
we should be using instead?

And with Struts 2.0.6 we're using Tiles 2.0-20070207 release, why is that?

That's because the tiles 2 code wasn't considered "stable" when we first 
started using struts2, so that's all that was available.  When I first 
started using struts2 the tiles situation was a mess so I had to piece a 
few things together to get it working again.  If tiles2 is actually 
stable now then we probably just need to look at fixing up a couple 
things to get in sync with them again.

For the listener I don't quite remember what the deal was, but I think I 
tried using the tiles2 listener and it didn't work and then had to use 
the old tiles1 listener which was still in the jar and people said was 
working properly.  I'm not 100% on that though, it's been a while.

In any case, to fix things you may just have to hit up the struts2 docs 
on using tiles and do some reading.
