Matt, thank you for the explaination. I think I need to go futher by extending or changing the ResourceBundle handling, I am thinking of adding a column in the user table to tell which language the user is going to use, by then I should be able to load the specific ApplicationResources.propeties.
In short, I wish to load the specific ApplicationResourcess.properties dependent on user login instead of user locale. How do you think about this ? Any advice ? Or could you please give me a pointer to where should I start with ? mraible wrote: > > On 3/27/07, Fan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> 1) Yes I am using struts as the web framework, I have the following lines >> inside the struts.xml, so how could I change that to make loading two set >> of >> ApplicationResources.properties ? what does this <constant >> name="struts.custom.i18n.resources" value="ApplicationResources,errors"/> >> mean ? > > It means load ApplicationResources.properties, as well as > errors.properties and use the regular ol' locale-resolution logic > provided by ResourceBundle. > > So to add a new one, change it to > value="ApplicationResources,errors,yournewbundle"/> > >> >> <constant name="struts.devMode" value="false"/> >> <constant name="struts.locale" value="en"/> >> <constant name="struts.i18n.encoding" value="UTF-8"/> >> <constant name="struts.action.extension" value="html"/> >> <constant name="struts.objectFactory" value="spring"/> >> <constant name="struts.custom.i18n.resources" >> value="ApplicationResources,errors"/> >> <constant name="struts.multipart.maxSize" value="2097152"/> >> <constant name="struts.ui.theme" value="css_xhtml"/> >> >> 2) In fact, I want to have both english & chinese caption/message appear >> on >> the screen at the same time, if that's possible then please give me a >> pointer to where to change it > > You could do this by providing 2 keys in the same i18n bundle - one > for English and one for Chinese.
