We are moving some applications from using Struts 2.0.11 to Struts 2.1.6. In
our applications using Struts 2.0.11 we used the label tag's key attribute
to specify the name, value, label on some of our jsp view pages. So for
example:
<s:label key="personBean.firstName" />
would render in the jsp page as:
<tr>
<td class="tdLabel"><label for="personBean_firstName" class="label">Your
first name:</label></td>
<td
><label id="personBean_firstName">Bruce</label></td>
</tr>
The global-message.properties file has:
personBean.firstName=Your first name
and the personBean object exists on the value stack and it has a public
getFirstName() method.
After changing to Struts 2.1.6, using the label tag with the key attribute
no longer works as it did when we used Struts 2.0.11. Now the jsp renders:
<tr>
<td class="tdLabel"><label for="personBean_firstName" class="label">Your
first name:</label></td>
<td><label id="personBean_firstName">Your first name</label></td>
</tr>
Instead of showing the value of the personBean.firstName, it shows the value
from the global-message.properties file (Your First Name)
If I use <s:property value="personBean.firstName" /> the
personBean.firstName value (Bruce) does display correctly on the jsp page.
We can change our use of the label tag with key attribute to the property
tag, but we are wondering if this is a documented change in how the label
tag with key attribute works in 2.1.6 vs 2.0.11 or if this is a bug in
2.1.6.
Thanks for the assistance.
