RE: Localization of ValidationStrings.properties

Hi all,

It is a good idea to unify the error translation in
tapestry’s validators and the translation of components
strings to use one resource manager (a class that is
responsible for loading and caching resource files). I
think this is the right approach, because you can
choose where to store resource data for both
translations mechanism (files or database). At the
moment this is possible only for the components strings
translation.(I have submited a feature request about this)

The one posible way is:
	1. Define a interface IStringsResourceSource with methods:
		- Properties getResource(String strURL, Locale objLocale);
		- IStringsResourse getResource(String strURL, Locale objLocale);
	2. Define a interface IStringsResource
		- String getString(String strKey);
		- String getString(String strKey, String strDefaultValue);
		- String getString(String strKey, Object[] arrParams);

	3. Change a class DefaultComponentStringSource
		- change methhod: private Properties readProperties(String basePath,
Locale locale, Properties parent) to use the IStringsResourceSource without
direct using a InputStream...
	4. Chages in a default tapestry validators to use a IStringsResource, that
can get it  from IStringsResourceSource.

ValidationStrings.properties


Hi,

How do I localize the ValidationStrings.properties file used by the
Validator classes? How do I include a ValidationStrings_zh.properties file
into my web-app? My web-app supports multiple languages, so the client side
Javascript needs to support multiple languages also.

Thanks
Victor
