* <p>{@link TilesJstlView} with JSTL support is a separate class,
* mainly to avoid JSTL dependencies in this class.
*
* <p><b>NOTE:</b> This TilesView class supports Tiles 1.x,
* a.k.a. "Struts Tiles", which comes as part of Struts 1.x.
* For Tiles 2.x support, check out
* {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesView}.
*
* <p>Depends on a Tiles DefinitionsFactory which must be available
* in the ServletContext. This factory is typically set up via a
* {@link TilesConfigurer} bean definition in the application context.
*
* <p>Check out {@link ComponentControllerSupport} which provides
* a convenient base class for Spring-aware component controllers,
* allowing convenient access to the Spring ApplicationContext.
