Yes there is! I am using Tiles 2.1.1 which provides support for wildcards
and substitutions. This one definition is handling all my pages!
Struts
<action name="displayTile-*" class="acme.action.BaseAction">
<result>
<param name="location">displayTile-{1}</param>
</result>
</action>
Tiles
<definition name="myapp.layout"
template="/WEB-INF/layouts/page-container.jsp">
<put-attribute name="title" value="${title}" />
<put-attribute name="top" value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/header-top.jsp"
/>
<put-attribute name="middle"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/header-middle.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="bottom"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/header-bottom.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="breadcrumbs"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/header-breadcrumbs.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="navigation"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/main-navigation.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="content"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/main-content.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="subcontent"
value="/WEB-INF/tiles/main/main-subcontent.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="footer" value="myapp.footer" />
</definition>
<definition name="displayTile-*" extends="myapp.layout">
<put-attribute name="content" value="/WEB-INF/tiles/{1}.jsp" />
</definition>
Peace,
Scott
