RE: How to handle key attribute of tag?

[Sherlock Simon <Si...@pito.pnn.police.uk>]

Does the following thread help at all?

I've got it sorted now.  By adding:
<message-resources 
key="MESSAGE_ERROR_PAGE" 
parameter="com.pnc.visor.ErrorPageResources" 
null="false"/>
I spotted that the error message I wanted to display also needed to be in
the new resopurce bundle so I added:
#Errors page header and footer
errors.header=<b>
errors.footer=</b>
error.contact.support=Please contact support and quote Error No: {0}

and everything now works as I want.
I don't like having to have separate resource files but hey, it works.
Thanks, Simon.

Is there something else I need to do as well?  I'm currently getting nothing
displayed.
I now have the following code:
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, error);
request.setAttribute(org.apache.struts.Globals.ERROR_KEY, errors);
The following in struts-config.xml:
<message-resources key="MESSAGE_ERROR_PAGE"
parameter="com.pnc.visor.ErrorPageResources" />
<message-resources parameter="com.pnc.visor.ApplicationResources" />
and the following in ErrorPageResources.properties:
#Errors page header and footer 
errors.header=<b>
errors.footer=</b>

The <b> and </b> will have text but are just for testing at the moment.

This is because I'm using the following:
public ActionForward execute(Exception exception,
ExceptionConfig exeptionConfig,
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm formInstance,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) 
throws ServletException
>From a class that extends ExceptionHandler.
Thanks, Simon.

The code:
new ActionError("errors.header.errorpage")
creates an error instance whose message is "<b>". Is that really what you
wanted or are you just using that to try and force a particular format?
If you want to use a different header and footer, try creating a separate
properties file, say ErrorPageMessages.properties, and include your
alternate header and footer using the standard keys:
errors.header=<b>
errors.footer=</b>

Then, in your Struts config file, include something like:
<message-resources key="MESSAGE_ERROR_PAGE"
parameter="ErrorPageMessages"/>
Finally, in your error page, use <html:errors> like:
<html:errors bundle="MESSAGE_ERROR_PAGE">
As an aside, if you're creating errors in your action, the standard practice
is to use Action.saveErrors(HttpServletRequest, ActionErrors) instead of
explicity setting a request attribute.

Subject:	How to handle key attribute of <exception> tag?

Hi List!

   Can anybody help me to understand well the meaning
of bundle and key atrributes of the exception tag
nested in <global-exceptions>? 

   How will the message defined in the key be shown in
the error page? I know I can define an error page in
the path attribute, but what kind of code my error
page should have to show the key message defined in
the key attribute?

   Thanks in advance!
