After investigating the PasswordExpiredException, I'm a little confused.
This class uses the following code:
<code>
public ExpiredPasswordException(String username) {
super("error.password.expired", username);
}
</code>
But there is no key "error.password.expired" in
ApplicationResources.properties. In struts-config.xml there is
<exception key="expired.password"
type="org.apache.struts.webapp.example.ExpiredPasswordException"
path="/changePassword.jsp"/>
And I found an "expired.password" key, but this is never used. How are
each designed to be used - simply for logging? There are no messages
that show up in the log for either of these.
Here's how I would expect these to be used.
1. If no key is specified in struts-config, then the key
"error.password.expired" would be used.
2. This message would be attainable with the following JSP code:
<%-- Error Messages --%>
<logic:messagesPresent>
<html:messages id="error">
<bean:write name="error"/><br/>
</html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>
Is this correct? Also, is it possible to have a separate .properties
file for Exception messages?
This stuff is great, as well as the rest of Struts - awesome to work
with this stuff. You all do an awesome job - makes my life a lot
easier.
