RE: Multiple message-resources -- How to access? Struts 1.1

2003-10-30 Thread Rabago, Hubert 
I'm worried about getting the same problem, except I don't want to go
back into all my components to add key parameters later on.  Is there
a way to break down a huge global properties file into several files
which all get added to the global resources?
Is this a feature worth asking for/working on?

Subject: Multiple message-resources -- How to access? Struts 1.1


Hi all,

I feel rather odd asking about this, because it seems it should be a
VERY simple task.

I've been using a single message-resource within my struts-config.xml
file. It's been working beautifully defined as: message-resources
parameter=MyTerms null=false/

When I have a file MyTerms.properties in my /WEB-INF/classes
directory.  I access my properties as such:

bean:message key=label.forum.subject /

And everything the world is perfect.

Except that my properties file has filled up with hundreds of terms, and
it is getting impossible to manage.  To make this easier, I decided to
define multiple message-resources in my struts-config.

message-resources parameter=MyTerms null=false/

message-resources parameter=msg.resource.errors key=msg.errors
null=false /

message-resources parameter=msg.forum key=msg.forum null=false /

It is my understanding that the initial MyTerms file will be stored
under the default resources property, and the other two will be stored
as msg.errors and msg.forum respectively.

However, when I try to access them, I get nothing.

bean:message key=label.forum messages=msg.forum/

bean:message key=label.forum name=msg.forum/

bean:message key=label.forum bundle=msg.forum/

None of the tags above work.  I even tried

bean:message property=label.forum bundle=msg.forum/

But that gives a NullPointerException.

So I'm stumped.  In the logs, the property file is being loaded during
startup, and my default property file still returns messages.

Any help?

Lukas

It appears as if the properties file can not contain the . character.
This makes sense, because properties are considered to be Class files at run
time.  The dot-notation probably gets a little confusing.

This works:

message-resources parameter=MyForum key=msg.forum null=false/

bean:message key=label.forum bundle=msg.forum/

Where the properties file is named MyForum.properites.
