RE: Access application resource bundle from an ActionForm
Does anyone know how to do this now that ActionServlet.getResources() is
deprecated?
Thanks, Nathan.

Try:
MessageResources resources = getServlet().getResources();
resources.getMessage("emailAddressLabel");
If your bundle is localized, you'll have to get the locale separately
and pass that on to the getMessage.
Locale loc = (Locale)request.getSession().getAttribute(
org.apache.struts.action.Action.LOCALE_KEY);
resources.getMessage(loc, "emailAddressLabel");

I think MessageResources now has a static method to get an instance of this
now.
