International Menu Help
I am trying to build and use a Yahoo UI menu in my struts2 / tiles2
application. The menu I am creating is a static 'logged out' menu created in
the action triggerd by the web app 'index.jsp'. The menu is a ListMenu
collection and is added to the session, e.g. session.put(basicMenu,
basicMenuList);
The data transfer object that I am using has a setLabel(String label) method.
Everything works fine until I want to set the labels based on the current
locale.
My MenuBuilder action class is where the menu is constructed prior to placement
in the session. I also have resource bundles configured for various languages
in my MenuBuilder.properties. An example name/value pair is 'menu.login=Login'
for english - en, and 'menu.login=Inicio de sesión' for spanish - es.
Every time the user sets their language preference, I want to rebuild the menu
using locale specific text like those found in the resource bundles. In the
Language.java action, I remove the current menu from the session, build a new
menu, and put in the session again.
session.remove(basicMenu);
basicMenuList = new MenuBuilder().getStaticMenu();
session.put(basicMenu, basicMenuList);
Here are some of the things I've tried to pick up the properties file values
with no success. I'm probably out in left field with little comprehension of
the framework, but if there is someone that can help me with my problem, or
suggest a different methodology, I'll thank you and sing your praises.
Menu ts_login = new Menu();
ts_login.setId(1102);
//ts_login.setLabel(Login); // This is hard
coding
ts_login.setLabel(menu.login); // This also is hard
coding
//ts_login.setLabel(%{getText('menu.login')});//The prevents the menu
from dispalying at all
//ts_login.setLabel(getText('menu.login')); //The prevents the menu
from dispalying at all

I'm lost; this is Java code in an ActionSupport-derived action? That
shouldn't even *compile* let alone do anything useful.
Doesn't normal Java work?
ts_login.setLabel(getText(menu.login));
