Hi,

I am migrating a working application based on JDBC/Struts/Tiles to a new workspace, using JPA/Struts/Tiles (switching from JDBC to JPA).

I’m not sure how this is related, but the Tiles forwards are not working any more, and Struts complains about them:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path tl.page.messaging.alertshistory does not start with a "/" character

The above dotted notation is a defined Tiles path.The Struts action definition:

    <action
      attribute="alertsHistoryForm"
      input="tl.page.messaging.alertshistory"
      name="alertsHistoryForm"
      path="/alertsHistory"
      scope="request"
      type="com.tl.web.messaging.AlertsHistoryAction">
      <forward name="success" path="tl.page.messaging.alertshistory" />
      <forward name="failure" path="tl.page.messaging.alertshistory" />
    </action>

A few points

This is working in my original workspace, not in the new one.
I’m using MyEclipse 6.0.1GA in both.
I use J2EE 1.4 Libraries in the working environment
I use Java EE 5 Libraries and Struts 1.3 Libraries in the new environment
I have read that when Tiles does not handle a path, it becomes a pass through and that is why Struts is complaining.

Why this new environment is not working?

This message has not been recovered.

Nipun,

I’ve confirmed that it has to do with the version of Struts.
I tried different library sets, including 1.3 from Sun, and it happens in that version.

The question is when will MyEclipse support the 2.x versions?

I am not sure if it will be sensable for me to try to do this on my own, as I may create other incompatibility issues with the IDE/plugin.

The question is when will MyEclipse support the 2.x versions?

We are considering it for our next release but that is some time away and we dont have a commitment from the management yet.
