SpringFramework & Tiles design pattern for multiple controllers

[szabobar]

I am new in Tiles, and I like it.

My problem is, that I got a head , body and footer tile in the template definition in SpringFramework. I would like to display some user information in head tile, and display last login ip in footer with some dynamic data. As I mean I can do that, if I assagn(addAttribute) every variable in every controller which use this template.

Is there any way the head/footer tile ask data from there own spring Controller? Or how can I add information(variableValue) to head and footer tiles without repeating sourcecode in every controller.

Thanks

I think you can add directly to your template page. It worked for me.
Example, in layout.jsp template

<header id="header">
			<h1 class="site_title">Account Manager</h1>
			<h2 class="module_title">
				<tiles:insertAttribute name="title" ignore="true" />
			</h2>
		<div class="user">
			<%=SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication().getName()%>
			<a href="<c:url value="/j_spring_security_logout" />">Logout</a>
			<a href="changePassword.htm">Change password</a>
		</div>
	</header>
