While working on my multiorg page, I realized we have a lot of
duplicate strings in the resource bundles.
Some of it can be mitigated by using a convention for buttons, list
columns, nav, etc.
For example, instead of doing something like this:
mynewpage.jsp.confirm for a Confirm button, let's use
button.confirm. That way ANY confirmation page can use the same
string. Likewise, with the list tags. Most
of the column names are duplicated. Take for instance "Organization".
Instead of doing mynewpage.jsp.organization
let's do this for all columns: column.organization.
This will remove a lot of duplicated strings that eventually need to
get translated, as well as create a more
consistent feel for writing pages. This doesn't mean you can't create
an exception to this rule where you
might need something different than the standard button* or column* entries.
I'll try to write a script to analyze the StringResource bundles.
There are probably other common widget
strings we can merge into a few strings resources.
What do you guys think about this? Any issues you see, aside from
having to change all of the existing
pages (which will be done by a script - of course) :).
Sincerely,
jesus

+1. It would certainly make it more manageable.
