MessageResources always uses the default Locale for MessageFormats

           Summary: MessageResources always uses the default Locale for
                    MessageFormats
           Product: Struts
           Version: Nightly Build
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Utilities
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Problem:
The following code fragment in an Action
  Locale myLocale = getLocale(myHttpServletRequest);
  MessageResources myResources = getResources();
  Date myDate = new Date();
  String myString = myResources.getMessage(myLocale, "format.date", myDate);
should result in a String of the form "04.06.2003" or "04 Jun 2003" depending 
on the Locale (german or english) when format.date={0,date,medium} but the 
default Locale is used in both cases. The reason for this is the codeline:
  format = new MessageFormat(escape(formatString));
in the method:
  public String getMessage(Locale locale, String key, Object args[])
No Locale is provided in the constructor, therefore the default Locale is used.

Solution:
Replace the above codeline by:
  MessageFormat myMessageFormat = new MessageFormat("");
  myMessageFormat.setLocale(myLocale);
  myMessageFormat.applyPattern(escape(myStringFormat));
