Validation using multiple resource bundles

[Venkat Maddipati]

Validation of data in form fields worked fine when I had only default
resource bundle. But, when I started using multiple resource bundles,
the validation failed. I tried to specify the value for bundle attribute
for the 'arg' elements(s), and 'msg' elements but didn't work.

Following is my environment:
Struts 1.2.4
Tomcat 4.1.30
Commons Validator 1.1.3
Using "http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_1_3.dtd"; in
validation.xml

As per the above DTD, we can specify the value for bundle attribute.

When searching on the internet for this problems, on some sites, I found
that Validation package doesn't support multiple resource bundles, but
only supports default resource bundles. Is that true? Or this was true
only with old versions of struts/validators.

Here is an example of my field element in validation.xml file:

 <form name="createUserForm">
            <field
                property="userId"
                depends="required,minlength,mask">
                <arg position="0" bundle="security" key="label.userId"/>
                    <arg position="1" name="minlength"
key="${var:minlength}" resource="false" />
                    <var>
                        <var-name>minlength</var-name>
                        <var-value>5</var-value>
                    </var>
                    <msg name="mask" key="userId.maskmsg"
bundle="security" />
                  <var>
                      <var-name>mask</var-name>
                      <var-value>^[0-9a-zA-Z]*$</var-value>
                  </var>
            </field>
 </form>


Any help is greatly appreciated.

TIA
Venkat
