Seam International Module
elfuhrer May 14, 2011 7:01 AMThe documentation in seam international is confusing, the snapshots docs and the seam-3.0.0.Final release docs are very different.
I'm trying to localize a sample application to support three languages and I can't get it done, for some reason changing the locale doesn't update the messages.
I have the following in beans.xml
<beans xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:s="urn:java:seam:core" xmlns:lc="urn:java:org.jboss.seam.international.locale" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://docs.jboss.org/cdi/beans_1_0.xsd"> <lc:AvailableLocales> <s:specializes/> <lc:supportedLocaleKeys> <s:value>en</s:value> <s:value>fr</s:value> </lc:supportedLocaleKeys> </lc:AvailableLocales> </beans>
I have in the webapp resource's folder the properties files, resources.properties and resources_fr_FR.properties
The following is my faces-config.xml configuration
<?xml version="1.0"?> <faces-config xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-facesconfig_2_0.xsd" version="2.0"> <application> <resource-bundle> <base-name>resources</base-name> <var>resources</var> </resource-bundle> </application> </faces-config>
the following bean handles switching the locales:
@Named public class LocaleManager extends LocaleConfiguration { @Inject List<java.util.Locale> locales; @Inject @Alter @Client private Event<java.util.Locale> localeEvent; @Inject private java.util.Locale locale; @PostConstruct public void initLocales() { addSupportedLocaleKey("en"); addSupportedLocaleKey("fr"); } public void updateLanguage() { locale = Locale.FRANCE; localeEvent.fire(locale); } }
and finally i'm firing the event from a jsf form
<h:form> <h:commandButton value="Update Locale" action="#{localeManager.updateDefaultLocale}" /> </h:form>
When I click on the button the messages are not changed, what am I missing in here?
