Contents of securityAudit.properties is as follows in myProject/resources folder: | test1=Arbi | test2=Sookazian | test3=Britney Spears I added following xml to my components.xml: <core:resource-loader> | <core:bundle-names> | <value>securityAudit</value> | </core:bundle-names> | </core:resource-loader> The following snippet is from my SFSB: import java.util.ResourceBundle; | import org.jboss.seam.core.ResourceLoader; | | ResourceLoader resourceLoader = ResourceLoader.instance(); | | String[] bundleNames = resourceLoader.getBundleNames(); | | ResourceBundle resourceBundle = resourceLoader.loadBundle("securityAudit"); In the debugger after the last line of code executes above, resourceBundle is null even though bundleNames[0] is "securityAudit". There is no exception in the log after entering the method so not sure what's wrong here... Do you need to supply the path as follows? resourceLoader.loadBundle("resources/securityAudit") View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4108214#...
