Hi,

How can I add a message to messages.properties which has a variable? Example:

newmails=You have {0} new mails.

If I then write: <h:outputText value="#{messages.newmails}" <f:param value="#{user.newMails.count}/> </h:outputText>

it doesn't work. I found a bug about this here.

Is there any other way to do this with Seam?

thanks, Ben

Did you try this ? 


newmails=You have #{user.newMails.count} new mails.

http://docs.jboss.com/seam/2.1.0.A1/reference/en/html/i18n.html#d0e9302

Maybe not what you really want.

You also have this option 


<h:outputFormat
 value="#{messages.newmails}}">
  <f:param value=""#{user.newMails.count}"/>  
</h:outputFormat>

Cheers

Right. Not what I want.

That doesn't work in Seam, and that's precisely the problem. See the bug I linked to above. It works in a plain JSF application, but not Seam apps.

Hi Ben

I've been testing this myself 


newmails=You have {0} new mails.


<h:outputFormat
 value="#{messages.newmails}">
  <f:param value="#{user.newMails.count}"/>  
</h:outputFormat>

It just works.

My version of seam is 2.0.2.SP1 and I use jboss-4.2.3.GA

Cheers

booking_in_past=Cannot book resource #0 in the past.

facesMessages.addToControlFromResourceBundle(
  "bookingResourceAttempt", 
  FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR,
  "booking_in_past",
  messages.get(eachBookingResource.getResource().getKind().getInlLabel()));

Hi.

We have used the following: 


our_message=Foo #0 Bar


<h:outputText value="#{interpolator.interpolate(messages.our_message, myBean.value}" />

Which then displays the message with the data we want. #{interpolator} is a builtin seam component.
