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?
I'm currently doing this from within Spring. I'm using the Velocity code from struts-menu and the menu repository object. It's been useful, but far less so than if I was using from within a JSP. Mostly I'm using it to avoid recreating the functionality provided by the menu repository.
So within my controller, I place the menu repository into the equivalent of the Struts form bean (the command object) like so:
MenuRepository menuRepository = (MenuRepository) servletContext .getAttribute(MenuRepository.MENU_REPOSITORY_KEY);
command.setMenuRepository(menuRepository);
Then within my Velocity template I use displayMenu macro taken from struts-menu:
<div id="menuDiv">
<ul id="menuList">
#foreach ( $page in ["general", "items", "pricing", "sites"] )
#displayMenu($command.menuRepository.getMenu($page) 0)
#end
</ul>
</div>HTH,
Rob
