Re: basic dev question
For the record, I use a global .properties file to contain all common application strings. I avoid page/component properties files because I feel they cause too much scatter. The exception being if a component (or collection of them) merits its own library, then I'll make an exception. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you can't declare components in properties files, only templates or page classes (or other components) - right? Robert A.

Re: basic dev question
Because the model classes (non T5 components/pages/mixins) are not auto-reloaded when changed, validation put into business objects with attributes will require a restart of the server when altered. Many people put them into .properties files so that they can benefit from the rapid reloading of the components without a restart. regards, Christian On 23-Sep-07, at 9:47 PM, Robert A.

Re: basic dev question
Obviously it depends on whether you will ever need to do l10n. The validation examples don't do it to keep the code shorter. Otherwise of course it makes sense every string is localizable. Whether you do it globally or per page/component is up to you. Cheers, Nick. Robert A.
