EL in pages.xml (i18n)

[monkeyden]

It would be nice to be able to get a message from messages_en.properties (possibly by EL) when an exception occurs, as in the following example:

<exception class="java.lang.IllegalStateException">
 <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
 <message id="#{messages['user.session.expired']}"/>
 </redirect>
</exception>

The docs have hardcoded messages and I didn't see anything in the DTD that would allow it.

Does this feature of pages.xml support i18n in any way?

The code you just wrote will work, AFAIK. Did you try it?

Sure, there is a way.

<exception class="org.jboss.seam.security.AuthorizationException">
 <end-conversation/>
 <redirect view-id="/error/accessDenied.xhtml">
 <message>#{messages['Security.accessDenied']}</message>
 </redirect>
 </exception>

Excuse me. What he said, of course.
