Hi all,
I have a MessageResources.properties file that contains all the messages
regarding form validation.
I wonder what should I do when I have a business/workflow messages (like
"This entry already exist in the DB"), should I use the same properties
file? If yes - how do I call it from the business layer (say EJB layer)?
As I know, the MessageResources.properties and other message resources
are visible in the Servlet Context but not outside (unless you give to
your EJB layer a param where it can find them).
In this case I would suggest not to use these resources in the EJB
layer, but to trow exceptions and catch them in Actions and in actions
to access properly these resources.
For example I have "domain package" where my Business Objects are
(doesn't matter if they are EJBs or not), so this layer throws some
exceptions similar to that "ObjectAlreadyExist" and actions catch them
and wrap with proper messages. In my opinion these messages are
responsibility of the presentation layer, not in EJB layer
