Tiles - Localization possible through tiles-def?
I am relatively new to Tiles, so forgive me if there's a simple solution to this... I came across the following situation: tiles-defs.xml: Default.jsp: <%@ taglib uri="/struts/tiles.tld" prefix="tiles"%> I can't think of a way to _directly_ localize on tiles:getAsString, so I was wondering what is the recommended approach? Of course, I could put a in a JSP and use to fetch it. Is the use of tiles:getAsString disrecommended anywhere for internationalized applications? If not, should it be? Here's an idea: What if the put element supported a key attribute (mutually exclusive to the value attribute) to fetch values from a resource bundle.

Re: Struts and user-authentication
You can use tiles to optionally display information based on a user's role. Another possibility is to use the Struts logic tags to test if the user is in a given role; the body of the tag will either be rendered or not--depending on whether or not a use is in a given role.

Re: Craig: Tomcat 5.0 WAR Deployment
I believe that you mean deploy and undeploy. Haven't install and remove been deprecated under Tomcat 5?

Re: Must everything go through an action?...
It seems to me that a tiles controller can play the role of view helper.

Re: Application Startup
It seems to me that the best place to make the connection in ServletContextListener.contextCreated. If the application is unavailable, you can store that in the application context and when requests come in for that resource, you can display in the response that the resource was unavailable. You would also be able to periodically retry establishing the connection if you weren't able to create the connection when the application first started. Having the application send you (or your system administrator) an email or pager message could also be done. - Original Message - From: "Heligon Sandra" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Struts Users Mailing List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 11, 2003 01:39 Subject: RE: Application Startup > I would like to know when the ServletContextListener.contextCreated() > function is > called when Tomcat starts ? or is it possible to call this function only on > the first request? > In fact when the first request arrives to Tomcat I have to open an > application session on > our application server to get business data. > This application session is the same for all the clients. > But the creation of this session is transparent for the clients, I cannot > ask him to go to see in the files of Tomcat's log. > That's why if an error occurs at the application session creation, on the > first action > of the client I would like to display an error.
