> So, here is a bit of a background on the why of that bug.
> I' m working for the canadian governement, and there is a strong need to
> internationalize applications to be english and french. That goes as far as
> bilinguifying the URLs. So the url shouldn't be inbox.action but
> *inbox-reception.action* if the locale is English or *reception-inbox.action*
> if the locale is French. So, of course, it's a nightmare, but hey, that's
> what make the job interesting ;)
> Anyway, my approach to enable those weird urls is to use a custom
> ActionMapper. Our actions are actually named after their english names, and
> the action mapper is adding the French part correctly, and stripping it out
> when trying to find the right ActionMapping. That's working fine (after some
> tweaking of the Locale, but nothing really important).
> So where my issue kicks in is that for bilinguilism we have a link on each
> page using a <s:url /> without any actions, so that it redirects to the
> current page (with of course a different request_locale).
> Now, the thing that happens when we click the link is that the locale
> changes, and the url of the page changes. My understanding was that in this
> case, s:url would use the current namespace and action to generate the actual
> url. After reading through the code, that's the behaviour in
> ServletUrlRenderer#renderFormUrl, but ServletUrlRenderer#renderUrl is just
> recycling the current URL hoping it will still work. Actually that's not
> working in my case, as the URL changes after the Locale switched. So I'd like
> for #renderUrl to use the current action / namespace, instead of going for a
> wild guess based on the current URL.
> In most cases, that doesn't make a difference, as the same page usually have
> the same URL. However, it's not the same URL generated in my case, and I
> think the behaviour of ServletUrlRenderer is quite unexpected.
> I'll try to provide a patch ASAP.
