In your example: TilesContainer container = TilesAccess.getContainer(context); ComponentContext ctx = container.getComponentContext(req, res); ComponentAttribute attr = ctx.getAttribute(name);
ctx comes back with no attributes (therefore attr results in null). I think I want to call getContainer with pageContext. How do I get the pageContext? To recap what I WAS doing with the old API - I was inspecting a tiles definition and searching for a specific attribute. I'm doing this BEFORE dispatching to the tiles servlet.
