Acquiring and Installing Struts Console

Supported Configuration Files

As explained, the current version of Struts Console supports editing not only Struts configuration files, but also Tiles and Validator configuration files, plus the JSP Tag Library Descriptor (.tld) files. All of these files are XML-based. In order for Struts Console to distinguish these files from any random XML file, they must have a proper XML <!DOCTYPE> declaration. The <!DOCTYPE> declaration specifies the Document Type Definition (DTD) to which the file must conform. Following is a list of the configuration files supported by Struts Console and their <!DOCTYPE> definitions.
