Re: Dynamically populating tile lists at runtime for menus - Is it possible?
another possibility would be to define a new bean (here, Onglet) with an attribute roles. In the layout, you verifiy if the role you are in is contained in the roles attribute before displaying the onglet. Here is a extract of a tiles definition using it: putList name=listeOnglets bean classtype=XXX.Onglet set-property property=id value=Perso/ set-property property=text value=Perso/ set-property property=roles value=guichet, ingenierie/ set-property property=link value=pagePersoFiltreService.do/ /bean bean classtype=XXX.Onglet set-property property=id value=Groupe/ set-property property=text value=Groupe/ set-property property=roles value=guichet, ingenierie/ set-property property=link value=pageGroupeFiltreService.do/ /bean It works great. Hope it helps! Caroline
RE: Dynamically populating tile lists at runtime for menus - Is it possible?
I am not using putList myself but if you looking to dynamically construct complex tiles have you looked into UrlController? http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/tiles/UrlControll er.html http://www.lifl.fr/~dumoulin/tiles/tilesAdvancedFeatures.pdf Hope it helps Fedor -Original Message- From: Joanne L Corless [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2003 8:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Dynamically populating tile lists at runtime for menus - Is it possible? Hi, I am in the process of building a Struts/Tiles application that needs to be able to dynamically construct menu lists when the user logs in. For instance a user may belong to the base user role, therefore a single tab should be displayed but he could also belong to an admin role, therefore 2 tabs need to be displayed. Is there a way of building the putList name=tabList item value=Doc Home link=/index.jsp / . . . . . /putList dynamically? All the documentation I have found so far seems to suggest that all these lists need to be predefined, however I want to be able to retrieve the item's from a database within a Struts action as the number of combinations of list items could run into the hundreds.

Re: Dynamically populating tile lists at runtime for menus - Is it possible?
The docs show that item doesn't accept a role attribute, and the add tag does but not in a definiton so I don't think you can. I have a menu tile that is displayed on every page. I use the logic:present to check user roles, and display items depending on that. logic:present role=admin span class=menuitemhtml:link forward=admin titleKey=admin.titlebean:message key=admin.menu //html:link/span /logic:present logic:present role=a_user ... /logic:present ... (general links that any user can access, don't have to be logged in) Your other option might be to use a tile controller to generate the list.
