Yes, it does sound like the correct approach. I say this because I
already implemented it. ;P

It's part of Fulcrum -- the bundles property is leveraged. It's quite
new, so if something is missing, broken, or not implemented to your
liking, please speak up.

It already is used as a sequence of bundles to iterate through during
a lookup. Could you provide an example of what you're trying to do so
I can see how it differs from what's there, and how I can make the
documentation more clear?

The sequence that is used is as specified in the properties file, just
as any other search path (like the PATH environment variable looked
through for binaries).

If I'm understanding what you're saying, it already does this...how is
what you're proposing different?

Now that I know its there, its easier to find - but perhaps a mention
of the functionality offered by getString in the class level
javadocs, not just against the method.

I'll look at that first - hopefully this will make the t2 -> t3
transition easier...

That would be good. Just `diff -u` the Fulcrum version against the
Turbine 2 version, and what you need to port should become evident.

I am trying to use the localization service from a recent fulcrum
build with turbine-2 (1 feb 2002), with jetspeed, but get an error
that the service does not implement Initable.
I presume this is one of the major changes from turbine-2 to 3...
Unless anyone has any suggestions, I will look at backporting the
localization changes that I want from fulcrum into turbine-2
localization... specifically the getString method and its related
calls.

Great. Is there a spot in the JavaDoc that you would suggest
improvements to?

Where were you looking? I should put a note about the additional
functionality there.

That's the ideal, but since I don't use Turbine 2 much I'm not sure
what would be involved in that. If it isn't currently usuable, it
certainly wouldn't be difficult to backport from the
jakarta-turbine-fulcrum to jakarta-turbine-2 repository.

Then I wasn't far off track ;-)
I missed the TurbineLocalizationService.getString's contract of
trying each bundle in turn. Looks like just what I want.

I could only see methods for accessing things by named resource
bundles or the default bundle.
Now - do you think that the localization service from fulcrum be used
with a turbine-2 app?
Thanks,
Chris
