OK, I think about this pattern: I have a class which needs messages. I specify messages on class level. Maybe with language/territory/variant settings - but not required. ( we do not like to make technical writers/translators unemployed, and do not like them to botch in the our high-quality code :)) 2 Generation modi: 1. Generate single big property file, prefix with FQCN 2. generate per class - do not prefix Convenience classes to get messages: For big one not necessary - it can be done once and without xdoclet For per class generation: Generate "accesor" class , which provides static methods ( and is singleton ), fetches correct localized resources and does message format or whatever we like. regards, ===== Konstantin Priblouda ( ko5tik ) Freelance Software developer < http://www.pribluda.de > < play java games -> http://www.yook.de > < render charts online -> http://www.pribluda.de/povray/ > __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
