[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - localization messages access from Java code

[dnikolov]

Hi,

I am trying to access a message defined in my messages_en.properties file from my backing Java code per the instructions in the Seam manual in the localization/internationalization section. I am doing something like this:

@In("#{messages['l.someDbTable.usexCol']}") private String ORIENTATION_USEX;
@In("#{messages['l.someDbTable.useyCol']}") private String ORIENTATION_USEY;
	
private final SelectItem[] ORIENTATION_ITEMS = new SelectItem[] {
        new SelectItem(this.ORIENTATION_USEX),
        new SelectItem(this.ORIENTATION_USEY)
};

Doing this results in a NullPointerException at the SelectItem array declaration. I am assuming I need to specify what messages is somewhere in an xml config file.

Note that I can refer to messages in my xhtml front end code as in: #{messages['l.someDbTable.useyCol']}

In my faces_config.xml I have this :

   <message-bundle>messages/Models</message-bundle>
   <message-bundle>messages</message-bundle>
<view-handler>com.icesoft.faces.facelets.D2DSeamFaceletViewHandler</view-handler>
   

but I am not sure how relevant this is. Can you provide a solution or a more detailed source on using localization in Seam? Thanks!
