Re: [cas-user] Externalizing custom messages

[Dustin J Luck]

Thanks, Ray. That did the trick. The dot in the file name was a typo; my 
custom_messages file was named properly. I just needed to fix the value for 
file.

Re: [cas-user] Externalizing custom messages

[Ray Bon]

Dustin,

Should your file be custom_messages.properties (note '_')?

Then maybe cas.messageBundle.baseNames = 
file:/etc/cas/messages/custom_messages,classpath...

You could also put your custom file in src/main/resources/ and it will end up 
in the classpath (would this negate setting cas.messageBundle.baseNames?).

Actual property value set
cas.messageBundle.baseNames = 
file:/etc/cas/messages,classpath:custom_messages,classpath:messages

File location on server:
c:\etc\cas\messages\custom.messages.properties


If it isn't possible to externalize custom messages, what are the downsides to 
including my customized text as literals in the UI templates rather than 
bringing them in as custom messages?


Thanks

[cas-user] Externalizing custom messages

[Dustin J Luck]

I am trying to externalize as many of the customizations to CAS as 
possible. I have figured out how to do so for UI templates 
 
using the cas.view.templatePrefixes[0] property, but am having trouble 
figuring out a similar technique for custom_messages.properties. I tried 
using the cas.messageBundle.baseNames property as described in this thread 
,
 
but couldn't get that to work. Am I missing something or is there another 
method I should try?

*Actual property value set*

> c:\etc\cas\messages\custom.messages.properties



If it isn't possible to externalize custom messages, what are the downsides 
to including my customized text as literals in the UI templates rather than 
bringing them in as custom messages?


Thanks
