Struts - nested messages

[Konrad Billewicz]

Hello,

I wish to nest one message inside another. I thought about something like:

ActionMessage msg = new ActionMessage
(
"error.field.notValid",
new
ActionMessage("form.treaty.field.agreementType"){.getValue()}
));

It isn't working because of the fact that method getValue() doesn't exists
in ActionMessage class. So, how to get value of the ActionMessage object
created with particular key? My messages are defined in
MessageResources.properties file.

Maybe I try do do it completely wrong?

Best regards,
Konrad Billewicz

Can you explain why you think you need to do this? And give an example of
the messages in (usually) ApplicationResources.properties and how they
"nest" to give you the output you're trying to achieve?

You're much better off posting your question to the Struts user list...

I wish to nest a field name inside a pattern error message and output it
using <html:errors/>. For example:

// from MessageResources.properties
# -- form fields --
form.treaty.field.agreementType=Agreement Type
....
# -- errors --
error.field.notValid=Field "{0}" is not valid.
....

The output should be:

Field "Agreement Type" is not valid.

Ok. Next question I will send there. Tkank you for a hint and for an
interest to my problem.
