Missing key in resource file causes html:logic tag messagesPresent message="true" to fail...

           Summary: Missing key in resource file causes html:logic tag
                    messagesPresent message="true" to fail...
           Product: Struts
           Version: 1.0 Beta 3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Custom Tags
        AssignedTo: struts-dev@jakarta.apache.org

If the error.general key is not present in the resources file the JSP throws a 
null pointer exception....

The fix is error.general as key in  the resource file .

This is a HARD fault to find!!!

In general the custom libs have BAD handling of error conditions when resources 
are not available.

The tags should check for presence of error.general message key and explain 
that it cannot find it as a WARN...then use it literally 'error.general' in the 
exception text thrown...in this way the developer can see that the message key 
should be defined...

Since the nullpointer is thrown without any explanation this is a BLOCKER!
