Re: Properties file: how to use several maps with the same key and different values?
Fred, It's not about web apps or server apps. It's about key/value pairs. You can't duplicate keys in a properties file any more than you can duplicate keys in a map or indexes in an array. You need to either use unique keys (e.g., prefixes as Eric suggested) or use separate properties files. - Isaac On Tue, Jan 6, 2009 at 9:32 AM, Fred Janon wrote: > That's what I ended up doing, but it's such a common thing in Web > client/server apps that I thought someone would have done something to solve > the issue without doing that. > > Thanks > > Fred > > On Tue, Jan 6, 2009 at 21:31, Eric Ayers wrote: >> >> Umm, couldn't you copy the map you got from the Constants class into a >> second Map and strip off the prefix .*_ from your keys?

Re: Properties file: how to use several maps with the same key and different values?
That's what I ended up doing, but it's such a common thing in Web client/server apps that I thought someone would have done something to solve the issue without doing that.

Re: Properties file: how to use several maps with the same key and different values?
Umm, couldn't you copy the map you got from the Constants class into a second Map and strip off the prefix .*_ from your keys? You'd need to be consistent in your naming, but one small method could do this.

Re: Properties file: how to use several maps with the same key and different values?
Hi Eric, I understand each property must be unique, but I want to end up with different selects with a different name with the same values for their options for the submission to the server. entertainment sports Concert Parade I need to internationalize "entertainment", sports, etc... With your solution I would end up with entertainment sports Concert Parade The values are the DB keys, unique within their domain, but not unique across all the domain classes.

Re: Properties file: how to use several maps with the same key and different values?
I hope you've worked through this by now, but the problem you're seeing is because each property key needs to be unique. You need to name your properties differently, such as: EVENTTYPE_1 = concert EVENTTYPE_2 = parade CATEGORY_1 = entertainment CATEGORY_2 = sports CATEGORY_3 = arts CATEGORY_4 = services EVENTTYPES=EVENTTYPE_1, EVENTTYPE_2 CATEGORIES=CATEGORY_1,CATEGORY_2,CATEGORY_3,CATEGORY_4 On Tue, Dec 23, 2008 at 7:09 AM, Fred Janon wrote: > I use several listboxes with a numeric key and a text as the value.

Properties file: how to use several maps with the same key and different values?
I use several listboxes with a numeric key and a text as the value. I need to internationalize the text. I don't know if there is a way to code that in a property file. I tried the following but all the maps are all mapped with the last values at runtime. Application.properties 1 = concert 2 = parade EVENTTYPES = 1, 2 1 = entertainment 2 = sports 3 = arts 4 = services CATEGORIES = 1, 2, 3, 4 Application.java Map EVENTTYPES(); Map CATEGORIES(); Runtime: [INFO] Event types Key: 1 value: entertainment // Should be "concert" [INFO] Event types Key: 2 value: sports // Should be "parade [INFO] Categories Key: 1 value: entertainment [INFO] Categories Key: 2 value: sports [INFO] Categories Key: 3 value: arts [INFO] Categories Key: 4 value: services Use: Map eventtypes = StringManager.Constants().EVENTTYPES(); Map categories = StringManager.Constants().CATEGORIES(); I don't know if there is a way to do that in a properties file.
