Hey folks -

I'm trying to get a better understanding of how the StripesResources  
file works. I've been using it for a while but I've recently run into  
the problem with the ' character.

Looking through the code hasn't been very helpful.

Here's the problem. In my StripesResources.properties file I have (for  
example):

foo1=Foo's
foo2=Foo''s
foo3=Foo\'s

In my JSP's I have:

<fmt:message key="foo1"/>
<fmt:message key="foo2"/>
<fmt:message key="foo3"/>


The page returns:

Foo's
Foo''s
Foo's

This kinda makes sense but I see that the Stripes SimpleMessage class  
implementation is supposed to use:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/text/MessageFormat.html

The reason this is a problem is we're trying to share a translation  
memory database between Stripes and GWT and it seems like the strings  
are represented differently.

Any idea why the StripesResources.properties doesn't following the  
standard MessageFormat format conventions where:

foo2=Foo''s
should be printed like:

Foo's

Thanks in advance.

Phil
