Need Help with Spring i18n

[SwapSawe]

Hello All !!!

I have got a problem with spring, could not understand where should i redirect this to..

We are using Spring framework's ResourceBundleMessageSource, to use i18n feature, now my requirement is to have the errorMessages out of my jar, and may not be necessarily on classpath, so how should I go for setting basename using absolute path?

Any help would be appreciated, even if u cud think of an alternative way.

Regards,
SwapSawe.

Sounds like you may need to provide your own MessageSource implementation. Something like subclassing the ResourceBundleMessageSource class and overriding the doGetBundle(String basename, Locale locale) method might do the trick. Your overridden method would search for, and unpack, the resources as your requirements have them, and create ResourceBundle objects from them to return.

Just like to stress I haven't tried this myself.

Thanks Tim, I wud look into that direction till now, i was just looking for some short cut. On a second thought, I am still open to short-cuts

Shortcut ... use a .properties language resource on the classpath with the provided ResourceBundleMessageSource.
