RE: How do you access an application.properties value directly fr
om within a class?
I forgot to add the simplest way in an Action class:
MessageResources resources = getResources(request);
resources.getMessage("keyName");

Subject: RE: How do you access an application.properties value directly

If you're just looking for the values, grab it as a resource bundle. Here's
how I grab it in a Business Delegate:
// Get the application's messages resources
ResourceBundle resources =
ResourceBundle.getBundle("ApplicationResources");
String appDBVersion = resources.getString("webapp.db_version");
And then of course, there's errors and messages - where it grabs it
automagically:
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR,
new ActionError("errors.existing.user",
userForm.getUsername(),
userForm.getEmail()));
messages.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE,
new ActionMessage("user.deleted",
userForm.getEmail()));
And lastly, you can get it from the servlet context in a servlet outside of
struts:
MessageResources resources =
((MessageResources)
getServletContext().getAttribute(Globals.MESSAGES_KEY));
resources.getMessage("userFormEx.username");
HTH,
Matt

When Struts load, it grabs application.properties and stores it's keys and
values somewhere. From within an action class I need to access a value in
application.properties. How could one do this?

You mean like this?
<bean:define id="someKey">
<bean:message key="some.key"/>
</bean:define>
<some:otherTag value="<%=someKey%>"/>

Re: How do you access an application.properties value directly from within a class?
Posted by Konstadinis Euaggelos <Va...@eurodyn.com>.
You can use this,
<bean:define id="key"><bean:message key='myKey'/></bean:define>
You can use the key as a scriplet <% =key%>
This solution works also in the following case ,
if you want to display a title in your button if your write title =
"<bean:message key='myKey'/>"
it willn 't work ,
Following the above solution it works,
<html:button property="previous" styleClass="Button"
title="<%="["+key+"]"%>" >
<bean:message bundle="BUTTON_RESOURCE_KEY"
key="button.previous"/>
</html:button>

Re: How do you access an application.properties value directly from within a class?
Posted by Mike Deegan <mp...@hotmail.com>.
Hey Matt / All,
Do you have an elegant way - in scriptlet form - at the JSP level to grab
an application.properties value to then use as a JSP expression ( <%=...%>)
in the "value" attribute of a tag.
I had tried to use the bean:message tag to get the "value" to populate into
the "value" attribute of another tag - that is when trying to combine two
tags - but the page fails to compile. Can't remember the exact error msg but
it was along the lines of " = expected ..."
I know you can use JSP expressions ( <%=...%>) in the "value" attribute of
tags - but JSP compile fails when I try to use bean:message tag to directly
populate a tag's "value" attribute.
So do you have an elegant way - in scriptlet form - at the JSP level to
grab an application.properties value to then use as a JSP expression (
<%=...%>) in the "value" attribute of a tag.
I searched for some time for an answer on this but got lost in the maze.
Maybe the wording of my searches let me down.
Or should I be attempting to do this in another way ... without scriptlets
... to get an application.properties value to populate into the "value"
attribute of another tag.
Any help appreciated ...
Mike

Re[2]: How do you access an application.properties value directly fr om within a class?
Posted by Martin Naskovski <mn...@san.rr.com>.
Can you also somehow check from a JSP whether a certain message resource
key is set to a certain value and then render certain HTML based on that
value, or not? Thanks

om within a class?
If you're just looking for the values, grab it as a resource bundle. Here's
how I grab it in a Business Delegate:
// Get the application's messages resources
ResourceBundle resources =
ResourceBundle.getBundle("ApplicationResources");
String appDBVersion = resources.getString("webapp.db_version");
And then of course, there's errors and messages - where it grabs it
automagically:
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR,
new ActionError("errors.existing.user",
userForm.getUsername(),
userForm.getEmail()));
messages.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE,
new ActionMessage("user.deleted",
userForm.getEmail()));
And lastly, you can get it from the servlet context in a servlet outside of
struts:
MessageResources resources =
((MessageResources)
getServletContext().getAttribute(Globals.MESSAGES_KEY));
resources.getMessage("userFormEx.username");
HTH,
Matt

When Struts load, it grabs application.properties and stores it's keys and
values somewhere. From within an action class I need to access a value in
application.properties. How could one do this?
