how does ActionForm get a MessageResources object?

I'm using the Nightly Build.

ActionServlet.getResources() is deprecated:

Actions should call Action.getResources(HttpServletRequest)
instead of this method, in order to retrieve the resources for
the current sub-application.

I am trying to use the MessageResources object to add an
error in an ActionForm.validate() using the property's label, instead
of hard-coding it:

errors.add(property,
    new ActionError("errors.required", resources.getMessage("mainMenu." + 
property)));

Is there any way for an ActionForm to use the nice MessageResource feature
of Struts?

Thanks --Joachim
