Getting started with Apache tiles2 and struts2
Installation
To install Tiles in your web application:
- download a distribution of Tiles;
- if you downloaded the binary distribution, unpack it;
- copy the tiles-core-VERSION.jar and tiles-api-VERSION.jar files in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your web application. It is not reccomended to put them in a location where they are shared across the container;
- copy the Tiles dependencies JARs:
- Jakarta Commons BeanUtils 1.7.0 or above;
- Jakarta Commons Digester 1.8 or above;
- Jakarta Commons Logging (at least API) 1.1 or above.
These dependencies are present in the lib directory of the binary distribution;
- if you need JSP support, copy the tiles-jsp-VERSION.jar in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your web application.
- we suppose that struts2 is already installed and configured
- copy the struts2-tiles-plugin-xxxversion.jar from the struts2 distribution in the WEB-INF/lib directory
