Named parameters in localized messages
--------------------------------------
Key: SEAMINTL-4
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/SEAMINTL-4
Project: Seam i18n
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Messages
Reporter: Aslak Knutsen
Priority: Minor
When coming back to localized message files after being away for a while, it's
always a problem to remember what object/value parameter {2} is suppose to be.
At this point you have to find the specific message location in the source code
and read through the code to figure out what's actually being passed in.
It's also hard to send the file over to someone for translation, because they
most likely also need an explanation of what {2} is.
It would be nice to be able to used named parameters, but with Java(< 7) that
is a bit of a pain to code.
Would it be possible with some middle ground;
e.g. A name/alias in the message file that is ignored by the parser, but there
just for documentation.
(Maybe even function as a named parameter when Java 7 comes out?)
"Welcome {0:firstName} {1:lastName}!"
