- Include the struts-tiles-plugin as a dependency in your web application. If you are using maven2, the dependency configuration will be similar to:
Code Block xml xml <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId> <artifactId>struts2-tiles-plugin</artifactId> <version>${version.tiles}</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency>
- Register the tiles listener. This listener will typically either be the standard tiles listener (org.apache.tiles.listener.TilesListener) or the Struts2 replacement (org.apache.struts2.tiles.TilesListener). The latter provides tighter integration with Struts features such as freemarker integration.
Code Block xml xml <listener> <listener-class>org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener</listener-class> </listener>
- All package definitions which require tiles support must either extend the tiles-default package or must register the Tiles Result type definition.
Code Block xml xml <result-types> <result-type name="tiles" class="org.apache.struts2.views.tiles.TilesResult"/> </result-types>
- Configure your actions to utilize a tiles definition:
Code Block xml xml <action name="sample" class="org.apache.struts2.tiles.example.SampleAction" > <result name="success" type="tiles">tilesWorks</result> </action>
