[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-1366) SeamApplicationMessageBundle breaks default JSF component messages

SeamApplicationMessageBundle breaks default JSF component messages ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBSEAM-1366 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1366 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 1.3.0.ALPHA Reporter: Michael Youngstrom Assigned To: Pete Muir Priority: Blocker Fix For: 1.3.0.ALPHA SeamApplicationMessageBundle is backed by the Messages component. This is fine except if a key that does not exist is specified then Messages will return the key as the value. This works great for Messages but it can cause problems for SeamApplicationMessageBundle. Many existing JSF components have an algorithm similar to the following to display messages and other component text: 1. Get faces-config specified MessageBundle 2. Try to get a value from the resource bundle specified as the MessageBundle 3. Catch MissingResourceException if not found 4. Try component built in resource bundle for default message. Since SeamApplication returns "org.jboss.seam.jsf.SeamApplicationMessageBundle" by default if there is no user specified message-bundle in the faces-config this could cause some problems since a component's default message will never be shown under the scenario above. This possible problem could be solved if SeamApplicationMessageBundle were to throw a MissingResourceException if the key is not found in Messages. Mike
