struts properties

[yuchuang]

If in my properties page, i have a line like

msg.publisher.rp.publish.success=The research paper {0} has been successfully published

then how do i display the {0} to the value i want on my page? Anyone knows?

Thank you!

I understand here you use the struts.properties as just a properties file
You can read it as below.
Reading a properties file

Or in the Struts

Code:

import org.apache.struts.util.MessageResources;
...
private MessageResources messages = MessageResources.getMessageResources("struts.properties");
String message = messages.getMessage("my.message");

then
message.replaceAll the {0} withe the value.

Did I answer the question ?

here is how I use it, but I am not using struts 2. Not sure what version you are using.

Code:

 ActionMessages message = new ActionMessages();
   message.add("msg.publisher.rp.publish.success", new ActionMessage("msg.publisher.rp.publish.success", "Success"));
