[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Correct Syntax for enum lookup in messages

For an edit page, I have an enum. My code looks something like:
| <s:selectItems value="#{myEnumTypes}"
| var="enumType" label="#{messages[enumType]}"
| hideNoSelectionLabel="true" noSelectionLabel="Please select..."/>
|
My problem is that I am not seeing any label text... I may have a bug in my build process, but I figured that it is worth asking...
Consider a ficticious enum declaration:
| package com.mycompany.foo;
|
| public enum enumType
| {
| E_ABC,
| E_PQR,
| E_XYZ;
|
| @Override
| public String toString ()
| {
| return name().substring(2);
| }
| }
|
Note that I am overriding toString because this enum is saved as a string to the database, and the "E_" prefix is redundant.
For messages_en.properties, what should the entries be?
Ironically, I have tried several permutations, and nothing seems to work, hence I am considering that I may have a build problem. But it would help to have a case like this documented since most of the examples are simply constants, like "#{messages.someMessageText}".
Thanks!
