LookupDispatchAction and Internationalization

[Karin Schellner <ka...@researchstudio.at>]

Hi,

I am using Struts 1.2.7 with the LookupDispatchAction and everything 
works fine, as long as the labels of the buttons (=values of the keys of 
the resourcebundles) are not using special characters. If there are 
special characters I get the following error:

missing resource 'Hinzuf�' in key method map


so it seems, that there is a problem with the special character "ü" 
(\u00FC), because the real value should be 'Hinzufügen' - but cannot be 
interpreted and is therefore replaced by a question mark.

In my messageresource property-file I have replaced all special 
characters with the according \uxxxx-coding, but it seems that at some 
other place (struts-config.xml ?!) I have to tell the Struts-framework 
to use Unicode ...

Thanks in advance for any hints in this matter!

cheers,
karin.

I suggest you upgrade to 1.2.9, throw out LookupDispatchAction and use
EventActionDispatcher:
