I am trying to configure internationalized messages using the following guide http://docs.jboss.org/seam/3/solder/latest/reference/en-US/html_single/#implementation-classes
My Idea is to bind @MessageBundle interface with .i18n.properties file.
However I can't make the configuration work properly.
I created mypackage.ValidationMessages interface:
@MessageBundle
public interface ValidationMessages
{
String testMessage();
}
In the same package I created the properties file ValidationMessages.i18n.properties
The file contains a single line:
testMessage=This is test message
According to the documentation I would expect that my interface method will be bound to the constant from i18n.properties file.
But when I try to compile I get an error:
error: All message bundles and message logger messageMethods must have or inherit a message.
Which means that I probably should add @Message annotation to my method testMessage().
When I do that, it compiles fine. But when I use interface ValidationMessages from my beans, I see only the hardcoded text - not from the properties file.
I would appreciate any advice on how this setup can be configured properly.
I am using Seam 3.1.0.Final
