Action, MessageResources and Locale

[Barbara Post <ba...@ifrance.com>]

I want my Action to create a MessageResources based on the Locale I choose.
How can it be ?

So that my ActionForm returns errors in the appropriate language...

Thanks.

Why don't you tried it out ?
If u've i18ned  ur bean:messages wut's the problem.
place appropriate "error.something.like.this" accordingly in all of ur
application_XX.properties files
and use this name when creatin' errors i.e for example

        ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();

        if (sometrouble)
         errors.add("ErrorName", new
ActionError("error.something.like.this"));

        return errors;

Struts stores the Locale object that was requested by the user in a
session attribute under the symbolic key Action.LOCALE_KEY (the actual
value is "org.apache.struts.action.LOCALE").  Therefore, you can force a
Locale to be used in responses by doing something like this in an Action:

  Locale myLocale = ...
  session.setAttribute(Action.LOCALE_KEY, myLocale);

before forwarding to the JSP page.

Among other things, this makes it very easy to create a "Select Language"
control if you want to let users switch languages dynamically.
