So, from Martin Cooper's post at http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-dev%40jakarta.apache.org/msg04548.html, I gather that while there is an "apparent assumption that each application has a single source of message resources" "in both Struts 1.0.x and the latest code", I can infer there is a way around it??
The new "subapp" concept looks pretty cool. But does that mean you can install subapps on the fly, while your servlet engine is running? My ActionServlet has a set of pages that allow developers to upload an almost-war file (that has a struts-config.xml but no web.xml file) and it's read in and available immediately, all classes are loaded in... things are put in set places. This allows new sections of the site to be added without reloading tomcat. Anyway, back to the topic at hand, I am still confused. With Struts 1.0, can I add new messages without restarting (as I can add ActionMappings, etc, without restarting)? I have been trying to look at the Struts code to see how it's done now, and I am just not seeing a way I can add my messages.
