org/apache/struts/util/LocalStrings message format wrong

           Summary: org/apache/struts/util/LocalStrings message format wrong
           Product: Struts
           Version: Nightly Build
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other

        ReportedBy: d.m.t@gmx.net


org/apache/struts/util/LocalStrings has a messed up formating entry for 
parameters.multi. When specifying a name attribute for &lt;html:link&gt; that 
doesn't resolve to a Map you'll get an IllegalArgumentException in 
java.text.MessageFormat instead of the actual error message. Attached diff 
against the cvs version should make it clear. 

This being my first bug report I hope that it's useful to someone.

html:link using bean parameters (was: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 4836] New: - org/apache/struts/util/LocalStrings message format wrong)

Hi,

while I'm at it... The reason that I actually stumbled across this was that I 
was trying to append the properties of a bean to the link parameters. 

Now I'm curious whether it would be possible to extend the functionality of 
RequestUtils to also handle this case.

I've attached a diff that should illustrate this and so far seems to work for 
me. (Although I'm not sure about the exception handling.)

Have a nice day
