Hello Everyone (and Greg, Lukasz and Yasser more specifically).
There are probably differing opinions on what constitutes "best practice"
for properties/resource bundles and Struts 2, but as long as the set-up you use
for your application functions effectively for you, it is probably OK. I find
having a single set of global properties convenient and easy to read, but it
might not be as flexible as having multiple/hierarchical property files.
Greg's proposal to change the order of lookup (scan the global
ApplicationResources.properties first) is interesting, but might have some
unintended impacts to applications whose behaviour depends on the current
lookup order. If there is a way to introduce the idea without impacting
preexisting applications, that would be ideal.
I wonder if providing an opt-in (either by configuration flag or
specifying the provider/factory) LocalizedTextProvider variant, with a lookup
order change similar to what Greg proposed, might be a reasonable compromise ?
Since the current default LocalizedTextProvider does its look-ups
"bottom-up", the new variant (or existing one with behaviour modified via
configuration flag) could do its look-ups "top-down" (starting at the global
ApplicationResources.properties and then proceeding in an opposite order to the
current default). Essentially, it would be more efficient for
single-property-file applications, as in Greg's scenario (vs. the existing one
which is more efficient for class/hierarchy text).
Since developers can implement their own LocalizedTextProvider instances
(the Struts Examples https://github.com/apache/struts-examples/ text-provider
example provides a starting point), the Struts 2 Core should probably only need
to cover the most common usage patterns. There is already a
GlobalLocalizedTextProvider implemented, but it only looks at the global
application bundle (so its JavaDoc comments are misleading).
What do you folks think ?
Regards,
James.
