I am using seam 2.1.2GA. I have two messages.properties in my war file. One messages.properties we are inheriting from common project and another one is messages specific to my project. My faces-config.xml looks like this.


`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<faces-config version="1.2" 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_1_2.xsd">

     <!-- Facelets support -->
     <application>
          <view-handler>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</view-handler>
          <resource-bundle>
               <base-name>com.common.messages</base-name>
               <var>commonMessages</var>
          </resource-bundle>
          <resource-bundle>
               <base-name>com.app.messages</base-name>
               <var>appMessages</var>
          </resource-bundle>                     
     </application>
</faces-config>
`

In my backing bean I am injecting the appMessages resource bundle like this.


`public class BackingBean {

@In
private Map<String, String> appMessages;

public String myMethod(String messageKey) {
    String messageValue = appMessages(messageKey);
}`

Message key values are dynamic. That is why I have to inject the complete message resource bundle in my backing bean.
But it is throwing an error saying that appMessages requires non-null value. It looks like it is not creating the appMessages seam component. Even when I modify @In to @In(create=true) or @In(required=false), it is not working.

In seam reference manual, it is specified that we can inject messages in backing bean using `@In private Map<String, String> messages;`. Please provide some suggestions how to inject messages resource bundle in the above scenario.

Thanks,
Anil
