[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HV-44) Make Hibernate Validator multi-lingual

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-44?page=com.... ] Olle Hallin commented on HV-44: ------------------------------- Forget about Tapestry for this discussion. Take JBoss Seam as another example of multi-lingual web framework. Quote from Hibernate Validator Reference Manual (http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/validator/reference/en/html/validator-c...) <h:form> <div> <h:messages/> </div> <s:validateAll> <div> Country: <h:inputText value="#{location.country}" required="true"/> </div> <div> Zip code: <h:inputText value="#{location.zip}" required="true"/> </div> <div> <h:commandButton/> </div> </s:validateAll> </h:form> the Seam <s:validateAll> tag is supposed to execute Hibernate Validator and present error messages in the sessions locale (according to the Seam 2.0 ref manual). I've read the code of ClassValidator and *MessageInterpolator, and I cannot see how this could work without applying serious amounts of application code to bypass the inherent single-language design of ClassValidator. Perhaps this is the value that Seam adds. I might write a spike to test if it is so ;-) Servlet-only (i.e., no ejb), multi-lingual web apps with Hibernate-persisted pojos is a very common use case. Be it Tapestry, Seam, Spring MVC, Wicket, Struts or whatever presentation layer. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
