DisplayTag - export filename global property does not work

I am using DisplayTag 1.2 and I have a problem when I try to add a global property for the filename of an export. When I define a property using setProperty inside the tableTag everything works fine:

<display:table>
    ...
    <display:setProperty name="export.excel.filename" value="export.xls" />
</display:table>

But when I add this property in my global diaplaytag.properties file: 

...
export.excel=true
export.excel.filename=export.xls
...

This doen't work, it now uses the requestURI parameter as name (as is default I guess). All my other properties in the displaytag.properties file work fine but not the ones for the filename.

Please I could use some help with this as there are a lot of pages in my application which otherwise need to be manually adjusted!

Solution

  • Fixed. Displaytag was using an old version of the properties file!
