See Struts MailReader Demonstration Application.
In short:
1) Use plain 8-bit ASCII (or whatever western encoding it is) for
ApplicationResources_zh.properties.
2) Encode all Unicode stuff with Unicode escapes like this is Russian
for "Cancel":
button.cancel=\u041e\u0442\u043c\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0442\u044c
3) For Struts to pick up your localized properties you have to set
locale in the session:
locale = new Locale(language, "");
session.setAttribute(Globals.LOCALE_KEY, locale);
4) This one is ok:
> Coded the jsp with response.setContentType("text/html;charset=UTF-8")
But it is easier to set it right in the JSP:
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
5) Make sure that this setting in struts-config.xml points to proper file:
<!-- Resources in WEB-INF/classes/ApplicationResources.properties -->
<message-resources parameter="ApplicationResources" null="false"/>
If your resource file is in different directory, change "parameter"
accordingly.
