Re: Handling Missing Message Key

[Brian Styles]

Hi all,

I checked out the source code and it seems that the "???" is hardcoded into 
struts :-(

So using the logic tags might be the best I can hope for.

I reckon that factoring out these "???" into a property that the user can 
set would be a very good idea. Anyone know how I can make a feature request?

thanks,
Brian

Thanks for the reply Kris,

I think that setting the null property to true is probably the way to go.
I even found an exactly similar thread as what I want to do from this June.
Unfortunately there seems to be no definate answer.

Anyone have any idea how to get rid of the "???"s

Pretty sure you'd have to handle that yourself. It's probably cleaner to 
do it
in an action.

Action class:

String dbProp = ...;
MessageResources messages = getResources(request);
String message = dpProp;
if (messages.isPresent(dbProp)) {
  message = messages.getMessage(dbProp);
}
request.setAttribute("message", message);
JSP:

<bean:write name="message"/>

Or I suppose you could write your own tag...
