This might not be good for I18n, but if you just have some custom message you want to bundle together with your ActionMessages, it would be nice to do this without this hack... or having to resort to sticking it straight on the request under some key.
I think, this is a pretty good question, flexibility for internationalization aside. I'd be interested to know if there is a cleaner way to do this in Struts than having to deal application.properties. Anyone? -----Original Message----- From: Chaikin, Yaakov Y.

I thought of this. Is there a way to do this without this hack? Whoops... I mean simulation... :) Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Piker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 17, 2005 4:21 PM To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: Re: ActionMessage without using a key from application.properties You usually want to avoid doing this because you lose a lot of flexibility, but you can pretty easily simulate this behavior by just defining an empty message in your .properties file with one argument: message.custom={0} and then use the arg0 slot for your hard-coded custom message new ActionMessage("message.custom", "Your custom message goes here"); >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2/17/2005 3:58:57 PM >>> Is there a way to construct a completely custom message without using a key from application.properties? ActionMessage constructor seems to insist on having a key that would be mapped to the application.properties.
