Hi
Simple newbee question:
I use ONLY Velocity (and Struts) to render my Pages in all of my Web-Apps. No JSPs at all.
All examples I was looking at use a JSP page as starting point with some jsp tags (<menu:useMenuDisplayer ....... </menu:useMenuDisplayer>). Can I use Struts-menu in a VELOCITY ONLY environment without ANY jsp tag library? Are there any pointers about how to configure it and a sample vm file?
Currently I use very ugly HTML tables as menues located in a frame on the top of the pages. All menu entries are dynamically built with Velocity depending on the role of a logged-in user. I like to replace them with CoolMenu 3 type menues it this is possible.
To process my roles I have derived org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor and implemented my own processRoles() method. I like to do something similar with struts-menu. Preferably the menu should be 'personalized' to a user depending on the roles he/she has. This should be done dynamically inside a special Struts-Action and rendered by a velocity template, e.g. menu.vm. A static XML File which contains all menu items does not fit my needs since it is not dynamic based on user roles.
Could anybody help me a step further and point me to samples if there are any or tell me what steps I need to do to get this done? Many thanks in advance.
Tom
