one way is to define a CustomMessageResources and a CustomMessageResourcesFactory to take care of this. The basic idea is that we would define something like this in the struts-config.xml
<message-resources parameter="hints,otherhints,ApplicationResources" factory="com.a.b.c.CustomMessageResourcesFactory" null="true"/> and let our CustomMessageResources in it's loadBundle method parse the parameter with the "," delimiter and loadBundles for all the properties files. One thing to note here would be that although they would be different properties files for us, it would get compiled as a single Map so, any properties with the same key will get silently overridden. (having a unique prefix for a given property file should take of this) Take a look at http://javaboutique.internet.com/tutorials/Dynaform/index-7.html Although the author overrode the Servlet there in his implementation, just providing a new factory to create your Custom Message Resources should suffice.
