Deep down inside org.apache.struts.util.PropertyMessageResources, Struts
is using the load() method from the java.util.Properties class to load the
message resources files. Therefore, the files should correspond to the
same syntax as any other use of Properties.load() in your applications.
Note that, according to the JDK 1.3 Javadocs, a backslash is the
appropriate escape character for properties files, so a single quote would
be represented as "\'".

single quote in the application properties file don't works on Struts like any other java app?
Posted by Matteo Di Giovinazzo <ma...@infinito.it>.
When I want to insert a single quote, I write in the properties file's
key " \' " (traditional escaping) to obtain a single quote as output. Indeed
I obtain that the single quote disappear. Using the '' (double single quote
escaping) my file don't works with any other java app (a not-Struts app,
like swin, awt or console...)
My main question is: this works fine on all other java application, why not
with Struts? Where is the problem?

Using 2 single quotes does indeed work. And yelling about it doesn't really
help. Can you debug the problem at all to figure out why 2 quotes isn't
working for you?
