  • Method Details

    • findDefaultText

      String findDefaultText(String textKey, Locale locale)
      Returns a localized message for the specified key, aTextName. Neither the key nor the message is evaluated.
      Parameters:
      textKey - the message key
      locale - the locale the message should be for
      Returns:
      a localized message based on the specified key, or null if no localized message can be found for it
    • findDefaultText

      String findDefaultText(String textKey, Locale locale, Object[] params)
      Returns a localized message for the specified key, aTextName, substituting variables from the array of params into the message. Neither the key nor the message is evaluated.
      Parameters:
      textKey - the message key
      locale - the locale the message should be for
      params - an array of objects to be substituted into the message text
      Returns:
      A formatted message based on the specified key, or null if no localized message can be found for it
    • findResourceBundle

      ResourceBundle findResourceBundle(String bundleName, Locale locale)
      Finds the given resource bundle by it's name.

      Will use Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() as the classloader.

      Parameters:
      bundleName - the name of the bundle (usually it's FQN classname).
      locale - the locale.
      Returns:
      the bundle, null if not found.
    • findText

      String findText(Class<?> startClazz, String textKey, Locale locale)
      Parameters:
      startClazz - class name
      textKey - text name
      locale - the locale
      Returns:
      the localized text, or null if none can be found and no defaultMessage is provided
      See Also:
    • findText

      String findText(Class<?> startClazz, String textKey, Locale locale, String defaultMessage, Object[] args)
      Finds a localized text message for the given key, textKey. Both the key and the message itself is evaluated as required. The following algorithm is used to find the requested message:
      1. Look for the message in the default resource bundles.
      2. If not found, return defaultMessage

      When looking for the message, if the key indexes a collection (e.g. user.phone[0]) and a message for that specific key cannot be found, the general form will also be looked up (i.e. user.phone[*]).

      If a message is found, it will also be interpolated. Anything within ${...} will be treated as an OGNL expression and evaluated as such.

      Parameters:
      startClazz - the class whose name to use as the start point for the search
      textKey - the key to find the text message for
      locale - the locale the message should be for
      defaultMessage - the message to be returned if no text message can be found in any resource bundle
      args - arguments resource bundle
      Returns:
      the localized text, or null if none can be found and no defaultMessage is provided
    • findText

      String findText(Class<?> startClazz, String textKey, Locale locale, String defaultMessage, Object[] args, ValueStack valueStack)
      Finds a localized text message for the given key, textKey. Both the key and the message itself is evaluated as required. The following algorithm is used to find the requested message:
      1. Look for the message in the default resource bundles.
      2. If not found, return defaultMessage

      When looking for the message, if the key indexes a collection (e.g. user.phone[0]) and a message for that specific key cannot be found, the general form will also be looked up (i.e. user.phone[*]).

      If a message is found, it will also be interpolated. Anything within ${...} will be treated as an OGNL expression and evaluated as such.

      If a message is not found a DEBUG level log warning will be logged.

      Parameters:
      startClazz - the class whose name to use as the start point for the search
      textKey - the key to find the text message for
      locale - the locale the message should be for
      defaultMessage - the message to be returned if no text message can be found in any resource bundle
      args - arguments
      valueStack - the value stack to use to evaluate expressions instead of the one in the ActionContext ThreadLocal
      Returns:
      the localized text, or null if none can be found and no defaultMessage is provided
    • findText

      String findText(ResourceBundle bundle, String textKey, Locale locale)
      Finds a localized text message for the given key, aTextName, in the specified resource bundle with aTextName as the default message.

      If a message is found, it will also be interpolated. Anything within ${...} will be treated as an OGNL expression and evaluated as such.

      Parameters:
      bundle - a resource bundle name
      textKey - text name
      locale - the locale
      Returns:
      the localized text, or null if none can be found and no defaultMessage is provided
      See Also:
    • findText

      String findText(ResourceBundle bundle, String textKey, Locale locale, String defaultMessage, Object[] args)
      Finds a localized text message for the given key, aTextName, in the specified resource bundle.

      If a message is found, it will also be interpolated. Anything within ${...} will be treated as an OGNL expression and evaluated as such.

      If a message is not found a WARN log will be logged.

      Parameters:
      bundle - the bundle
      textKey - the key
      locale - the locale
      defaultMessage - the default message to use if no message was found in the bundle
      args - arguments for the message formatter.
      Returns:
      the localized text, or null if none can be found and no defaultMessage is provided
    • findText

      String findText(ResourceBundle bundle, String textKey, Locale locale, String defaultMessage, Object[] args, ValueStack valueStack)

      If a message is found, it will also be interpolated. Anything within ${...} will be treated as an OGNL expression and evaluated as such.

      If a message is not found a WARN log will be logged.

      Parameters:
      bundle - the bundle
      textKey - the key
      locale - the locale
      defaultMessage - the default message to use if no message was found in the bundle

    • addDefaultResourceBundle

      void addDefaultResourceBundle(String bundleName)
      Adds the bundle to the internal list of default bundles. If the bundle already exists in the list it will be re-added.
      Parameters:
      bundleName - the name of the bundle to add.
