Re: Best way to substitute vars in message resources

Yes, the {0} {1} {n} construct will work.  The ActionMessage class has an 
overloaded constructor to handle the substitution.

http://struts.apache.org/api/org/apache/struts/action/ActionMessage.html

I use this all over the place - works great.  Make sure you "save" the messages 
to the request context.  You can do the same with errors messages.

Subject: Best way to substitute vars in message resources

I want to frame out messages in Application.properties like this:

err.userexists=The user __UserName__ already exists. Please try again.

What im wondering about is if there is either a built in mechanism in struts to 
handle that __UserName__ replacement.  Maybe {0} or something?  Or should I 
just do a manual string replace hack in my controller?

Thanks

In struts resources file:
--
label.dork.name={0} {1} Is Dork Of The World
on JSP
--
JSTL way:




Struts bean:message
