[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-2499) Seam Messages strips any MessageFormat formatting parameters

Seam Messages strips any MessageFormat formatting parameters ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBSEAM-2499 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2499 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0.0.GA Reporter: Calvin Yu Assignee: Pete Muir Fix For: 2.1.0.CR1 I want to use f:outputFormat to format text so that I can specify the formatting style from resource bundles. In messages.properties: foo=Howdy {0}\! The time is {1, date, MMMM dd} In my Facelets view: <h:outputFormat value="#{messages['foo']}"> <f:param value="#{exampleAction.name}"/> <f:param value="#{exampleAction.date}"/> </h:outputFormat> The result of '#{messages['foo']}' is actually: Howdy {0}\! The time is {1} The reason this is happening is because the Interpolator is using MessageFormat to evaluate {1, date, MMMM dd} with empty parameters (line #141 in Interpolator.java), which results in just {1}.
