So in your validation-rules.xml you have something like...
<validator name="myValidatorRule"
classname="myPackage.MyValidator"
method="validateMyRule"
methodParams="java.lang.Object,
org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction,
org.apache.commons.validator.Field,
org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest"
depends=""
msg="errors.myRule">
</validator>
In your properties file you define "errors.myRule"
In your "MyValidator" class you have something like....
public static boolean validateMyRule(Object bean,
ValidatorAction va,
ActionErrors
errors,
HttpServletRequest request) {
boolean invalid = .... /validation check
if (invalid) {
errors.add(field.getKey(), Resources.getActionError(request, va,
field));
}
}

Subject: Struts-Validation and Property file
> Hi,
>
> I am using Struts validator in my application. I have defined a properties
file that has all the error messages for my application. I have mapped this
file in my struts-config.xml file.
> I have created a new rule specific for my application. I have mapped this
in my validation-rules.xml.
> Now, in my validation-rules.xml file, i want to specify the 'msg'
parameter of the <validator> tag. I want Struts to read this ('msg'
parameter value) from the properties file that i have created(the one that
contains errors messages with key's mapped to them)
