Hi Eyal, If you open the Component class you will see a method:
public String getString(final String key, final Component component, final IModel<?> model, final String defaultValue) throws MissingResourceException { .... } which finds a localizer... an Localizer after locating the key calls to : public String substitutePropertyExpressions(final Component component, final String string, final IModel<?> model) { if ((string != null) && (model != null)) { return PropertyVariableInterpolator.interpolate(string, model.getObject()); } return string; } if you look into the code of PropertyVariableInterpolator you will see it delegates to PropertyResolver for variable sustitution. So, I would guess something like: getString("Reports.ReportTitle.SuspectedConnectionsUserRes", new Model<Object>(new Object[]{"bla"}); will produce: Suspected User-Resource Connections by bla Pattern Report You could also use: 1- Suspected User-Resource Connections by {bla} Pattern Report 2- A bean class class MyBean { String bla = "bla"; } 3- and getString("Reports.ReportTitle.SuspectedConnectionsUserRes", new Model<MyBean>(new MyBean()); with the same result. Don't be afraid of looking into Wicket''s source code;-) A quick search in google also shows me the following link http://day-to-day-stuff.blogspot.com/2008/05/wicket-internationalization.html Best, Ernesto On Tue, Nov 18, 2008 at 11:21 AM, Eyal Golan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I have a key in the property file: > Reports.ReportTitle.SuspectedConnectionsUserRes = Suspected User-Resource > Connections by {0} Pattern Report > > I want to use getString("Reports.ReportTitle.SuspectedConnectionsUserRes", > SOMETHING); > to get the value with the {0} substituted.
