tiles definitions problem when performing a hot redeploy

["Witbeck, Shane" <Sh...@bankofamerica.com>]

Im currently using Ant to recompile a project which causes a reload of the
app without having to restart the app or app server manually. After I do
this Im getting a NPE on the tiles definitions when I start navigating the
app. I think the reason this is happening is because every page in my app is
a tiles definition so there isnt an opportunity to reload the definitions.
The way I currently get around this is to manually call the
ReloadDefinitionsAction which I have mapped in struts-config.xml. Looking at
the source for the action I found the following:

ServletContext context = getServlet().getServletContext();
DefinitionsFactory factory = DefinitionsUtil.getDefinitionsFactory(context
);
factory.setConfig(factory.getConfig(), context);

Does anyone know how to resolve this without manually reloading the
definitions (preferably using Ant) ?

TIA,

Shane

  Check the build.xml file chipped with struts sources. There is some 
targets used to hot redeploy web applications like Tiles on Tomcat.

  Hope this help,
