Well, no I didn't. I simply ran 'ant' in the jakart-struts-src-dir.
I noticed something in the struts build.xml file:
<snip> ...
This script will delegate some of it's tasks to the other build*.xml
scripts (build-webapps.xml, build-tests.xml, ...)
... <snip>
I sounds like this path is not so well trodden i.e. building tiles from
src.
The reason I'm trying to build Tiles myself from the src is due to an
anomaly somewhere between jboss and tomcat when it comes to determining
a user's login status. (see
http://main.jboss.org/forums/thread.jsp?forum=49&thread=13002 )
I'm trying to create something like this in the Tiles
template-definition selection code:
public boolean myPsuedoCheckRoleWrapper(HttpServletRequest request,
String tilesDefnRoleAttribute){
if(tilesDefnRoleAttribute.equalsIgnoreCase("anonymous"){
// return true if the user is not logged-in.
// i.e. Jaas login doesn't update the request with
authentication info - like tomcat does as part of form-based auth -
// so do my own checking - whatever it takes.
// Doing a login is desireable otherwise tiles needs two forward
tiles-definitions in struts.config 1=anonymous 2=custom(role-based)
// - and tiles-defn-conf.xml needs a lot more setup - not
very elegent!
return true;
}
boolean tilesResult = request.isUserInRole(role)?true:false;
return tilesResult;
}
Any suggestions and advice are most welcome!
Cheers
Joe
