Question

Struts2 Actions normally extend ActionSupport class which implements of TextProvider interface and provides access to resource bundle files in a convenient way using getText() method.

I want to use resource bundle in Interceptors. I guess I have to copy TextProvider implementation and paste it in my interceptor.

I have already defined global recourse file in struts.xml

<constant name="struts.custom.i18n.resources" value="resources.global" /> 

And place global.properties in resources package.

It works fine in Action Classes

Is there any easier way to use resource bundle in interceptors?

Answer 1

Your can use the java.util.ResourceBundle class.

ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("my_resource_name", locale);
bundle.getString("resource_key");
