/**
 * Tiles Plugin used to initialize Tiles.
 * This plugin is to be used with Struts 1.1 in association with
 * {@link TilesRequestProcessor}.
 * <br>
 * This plugin creates one definition factory for each Struts-module. The definition factory
 * configuration is read first from 'web.xml' (backward compatibility), then it is
 * overloaded with values found in the plugin property values.
 * <br>
 * The plugin changes the Struts configuration by specifying a {@link TilesRequestProcessor} as
 * request processor. If you want to use your own RequestProcessor,
 * it should subclass TilesRequestProcessor.
 * <br>
 * This plugin can also be used to create one single factory for all modules.
 * This behavior is enabled by specifying <code>moduleAware=false</code> in each
 * plugin properties. In this case, the definition factory
 * configuration file is read by the first Tiles plugin to be initialized. The order is
 * determined by the order of modules declaration in web.xml. The first module
 * is always the default one if it exists.
 * The plugin should be declared in each struts-config.xml file in order to
 * properly initialize the request processor.
 * @since Struts 1.1
