[jira] Commented: (TILES-126) Allow to override template when inserting a definition

["Antonio Petrelli (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Antonio Petrelli commented on TILES-126:
----------------------------------------

This kind of override could be done:
- at container level, creating a new method with the signature:
render(String definition, String template, Object... requestItems)
where the "template" parameter, if not null, will override the one specified in the definition itself;
- at ComponentContext level, adding a "template" property (I don't think that putting it inside the "attributes" map is a good idea, the template is not an attribute).

> Currently, if one wants to insert a definition that has the same attributes as another one but a different template, he/she must:
> - create a custom definition, usually by using <tiles:definition>
> - insert this custom definition in the page.
> There should be the possibility to insert a definition but specifying a different template, with a syntax like:
> <tiles:insertDefinition name="definitionName" template="/my/new/template.jsp" />
