Ciao tutti,
I have been trying to figure out how to make the <struts:message> tag work for
us (InterAge) while developing multi-language web sites. The problem is that we
want to be able to manually set a language and have all the text in that
language, from there on (for reasons I won't speculate about), but I didn't
find a way to do it. Sure, you can specify a Locale with the "locale"
parameter, but it's unnecessarily awkward (and inefficient) way of operating if
we just need to change the language once during a session.
Btw, I would really like that the "locale" parameter was
<rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue> so we could use a variable to indicate the
locale to use, while now is "false".. Can this be set as a default in the main
struts distribution? If not, is there a reason why? (just asking)
The question is: did I miss something that could let us set the locale once and
forget about the "locale" parameter in the "message" tag? If not, can I go on
and create a small tag (to be of course donated to the Struts project) that
simply sets the new default locale until further notice?
>From what I could see it is just a matter of setting an object in the session
scope, retrieving the object name with the help of Action.LOCALE_KEY, but if
there is some caveat it'd be great to know. Thanks guys/gals.
