Question
Is there a way I can bind a declaration in my WOD file directly to a
key/value pair in a WebObjects Properties resource file? I want to
externalise the majority of my HTML text [heading's etc] without creating a
java WOString/binding for each heading and bit of static text in my html
file.
Background
In Apache struts I would use the bean message taglib where I can specify a
resource bundle and a resource key. When the page is resolved the value for
the key in the resource bundle will be displayed [on the html page]. In this
way I can externalise the majority of my html text to Resource files
[Properties], and change them without re-deploying applications etc.
An Example
MyPage.html
<!-- My declaration for a static html string ->
<webobjects name='PageStaticHeading1' />
MyPage.wod
// the WO declaration that will bind to key/value in a Properties file
PageStaticHeading1: WO<something like String I guess> {
resourceBundle = PropertiesPageHeadings; // specify the resource
bundle to use
resourceKey = '<mysite>.<mypage>.<myheading1>; // specify a key in the
resource bundle
}
PropertiesPageHeadings.properties_English
# my English resource bundle for static html bits
'<mysite>.<mypage>.<myheading1> = My name is George;
PropertiesPageHeadings.properties_FR
# my French resource bundle for static html bits
'<mysite>.<mypage>.<myheading1> = Je m'appelle Georges;
