Package org.apache.tiles.request Description

This package defines the concept of "request" as the event causing a document to be generated from a template. The process is also called "rendering the template". Typical examples are servlet requests or portlet requests. This API is independent of the underlying technology, allowing the user to deal with similarities in servlets and portlets, or various template technologies, in a uniform way. It is based on 3 main interfaces:

• Request is the main abstraction, encapsulating the parameters of the template (as attributes and scopes) and the target document (as java.io.OutputStream). DispatchRequest holds some features common to servlets and portlets that are unlikely to be found outside of a JavaEE web environment.
• org.apache.tiles.ApplicationContext can be used to access application-wide configuration and resources (typically the files containing the templates).
• Renderer is the interface supported by the engine in charge of rendering the template.
