I have an existing Spring/GWT Application which i need to add internationalisation to. My understanding is that i can use Spring's "ResourceBundleMessageSource" to automatically select the appropriate messages_* file depending on the users location. I tried following this tutorial but i can't seem to get the Application to display my strings in French. As it stands, I've added 2 files messages_en_US.properties and messages_fr_FR.properties into my src/main/resources/i18n folder and added the following to the applicationContext.XML:
<bean id="messageSource"
class="org.springframework.context.support.ResourceBundleMessageSource">
<property name="basename">
<value>classpath:i18n/messages</value>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="localeChangeInterceptor"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.LocaleChangeInterceptor">
<property name="paramName" value="lang" />
</bean>
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.support.ControllerClassNameHandlerMapping" >
<property name="interceptors">
<list>
<ref bean="localeChangeInterceptor" />
</list>
</property>
</bean>
Just wondering 1) if i need additional configuration/glue code and 2) if i can test this easily without having to set the Language/Locale to French on my Redhat Server?
It's likely that your browser sends just "fr" language tag in Accept-Header. Spring is notorious for problems with fall-back, so you may need to copy the messages_fr_FR.properties as messages_fr.properties.
I am sure there must be some ways to configure fall-back, so you want have to use messages_en.properties (try your application with other English locales...), just messages.properties should do, but I am just too lazy/tired to look for solution at the moment.
Here you need to specify below bean in spring.xml.
<bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
<property name="basename" value="classpath:messages" />
<property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8" />
</bean>
<bean id="localeResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.CookieLocaleResolver">
<property name="defaultLocale" value="en"/>
</bean>
<mvc:interceptors>
<bean id="localeChangeInterceptor" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.LocaleChangeInterceptor">
<property name="paramName" value="lang" />
</bean>
</mvc:interceptors>
This works perfectly fine when you pass lang=es in query string. If still any issue remain.you can check the working example Here .

I’m using Spring 3.2.11.RELEASE. I currently have the following set up in my application context file for the purposes of loading a cron trigger based off a schedule defined in a properties file (the property = cron.schedule) …
<bean id="localPropertyConfigurer"
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location">
<value>classpath:application.properties</value>
</property>
</bean>
…
<bean id="updateResourcesJob" class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.MethodInvokingJobDetailFactoryBean">
<property name="targetObject" ref="myService" />
<property name="targetMethod" value="myMethod" />
<property name="concurrent" value="true" />
</bean>
<bean id="updateResourcesCronTrigger" class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerBean">
<property name="jobDetail" ref="myJob" />
<property name="cronExpression" value="${cron.schedule}" />
</bean>
My question is, I would like to create an XML configuration in my context file that allows me to edit my properties file and have everything automatically reloaded without having to restart my server or re-deploy my application. I have read several places about Apache Commons Configuration, but I can’t figure out how to take the above and rewrite an XML config that would utilize the configuration.
Thanks for any help, - Dave
I have a situation where I need to override properties from one project in another. In project 1, where I have no control over the source or the configuration, there is the following config:
<bean id="propSource1" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location" value="classpath:/sample-properties/prop1.properties"/>
<property name="ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders" value="true" />
<property name="order" value="-10"/>
</bean>
In another project, which I am working on, I have following config:
<bean id="propSource2" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="locations">
<list>
<value>classpath:/sample-properties/prop2.properties</value>
<value>classpath:/sample-properties/prop3.properties</value>
</list>
</property>
<property name="order" value="1000"/>
<property name="ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders" value="true"/>
</bean>
Individually both configurations work fine on their own. The problem happens when I have some property in prop2.properties or prop3.properties that I want to use to override the value for the same property from prop1.properties. It always uses the value in prop1.properties. I have researched quite a bit but did not find anything useful.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
The answer is in #M.Deninum's comment.
Iam working on a small project, when i try to implement i18n in spring,it not working,even when i try to change default language its not working. here is my spring-servlet.xml code
<bean id="messageSource"
class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
<property name="basename" value="classpath:messages" />
</bean>
<bean id="localeResolver"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.CookieLocaleResolver">
<property name="defaultLocale" value="fr" />
<!-- <property name="cookieName" value="myAppLocaleCookie"></property>
<property name="cookieMaxAge" value="3600"></property>-->
</bean>
<mvc:interceptors>
<bean id="localeChangeInterceptor" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.LocaleChangeInterceptor">
<property name="paramName" value="lang" />
</bean>
</mvc:interceptors>
i have 4 messages.properties in classpath messages.properties,messages_en.properties,messages_fr.properties,messages_de.properties
the default language not changing always its using messages_en.properties if remove messages_en.properties file ,then its using messages.properties.
And my hyperlinks are not working in jsp file
Language : English | French | german
when i use ${locale} in jsp it prints nothing..
plz help me tia..
Try ${requestContext.locale} instead of ${locale}.
And maybe jsp you test, has already '?' character in path, so lands on page with 2x'?' ?
I'm trying to have my web application multilingual, so I added LocaleChangeInterceptor to my servlet.xml. Here is the relevant code:
<bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ResourceBundleMessageSource">
<property name="basename" value="mii.root.i18n.mii-messages" />
</bean>
<bean id="localeResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.SessionLocaleResolver">
<property name="defaultLocale" value="en" />
</bean>
<bean id="localeChangeInterceptor"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.LocaleChangeInterceptor">
<property name="paramName" value="language" />
</bean>
<bean id="mappingHandler" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.support.ControllerClassNameHandlerMapping" >
<property name="interceptors">
<list>
<ref bean="localeChangeInterceptor" />
</list>
</property>
</bean>
And I have links like this:
<a href="?language=fr">
<a href="?language=hr">
<a href="?language=de">
MessageSource works fine, if I change defaultLocale in localeResolverBean the language changes. But when i click on links there is no change in locale.
I'm using springframework 2.5.6.
I really don't know what I did wrong, I went through a lot of tutorials and examples, there are no errors logged and the most bizarre thing is that it had been working like a charm for a few weeks since i configured it for the fist time and a week ago it suddenly stoped.
I have created a JAR that I need to use in my WEB-APP. Both are created with spring framework. I would like to load a .properties file outside the JAR file, in the main context of the web-application. And I want to do it with the facilities that Spring offers us.
I've tried to do something like this in my spring.xml file inside the JAR:
<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location">
<value>/WEB-INF/classes/my.properties</value>
</property>
</bean>
<bean class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.SchedulerFactoryBean">
<property name="triggers">
<bean id="cronTrigger" class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerBean">
<property name="jobDetail" ref="myJob" />
<property name="cronExpression" value="${my.cronExpression}"/>
</bean>
</property>
</bean>
Trying to load my.cronExpression from my.properties file. But without any success.
I always get this error:
Could not resolve placeholder 'my.cronExpression'.
I've tried to change the location with many variants, using classpath:/WEB-INF/classes/my.properties etc...
But I'm not able to load the configuration file.
Thanks for your help.
Use classpath:my.properties - /WEB-INF/classes is root of your classpath.
Try declaring it as follows:
<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location">
<value>/WEB-INF/classes/my.properties</value>
</property>
<property name="ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders">
<value>true</value>
</property>
</bean>
I have gone through your code and want you to try this code snippet
It works well for me :)
<bean id="placeholderProperties"
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location" value="file:/WEB-INF/classes/my.properties" />
<property name="systemPropertiesModeName" value="SYSTEM_PROPERTIES_MODE_OVERRIDE" />
<property name="ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders" value="true" />
<property name="order" value="1" />
</bean>
