All Implemented Interfaces:

HierarchicalMessageSource, MessageSource

public class StaticMessageSource
extends AbstractMessageSource

Simple implementation of MessageSource which allows messages to be registered programmatically. This MessageSource supports basic internationalization.

Intended for testing rather than for use in production systems.

Method Detail

resolveCodeWithoutArguments

protected String resolveCodeWithoutArguments(String code,
                                             Locale locale)

Description copied from class: AbstractMessageSource

Subclasses can override this method to resolve a message without arguments in an optimized fashion, i.e. to resolve without involving a MessageFormat.

The default implementation does use MessageFormat, through delegating to the AbstractMessageSource.resolveCode(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale) method. Subclasses are encouraged to replace this with optimized resolution.

Unfortunately, java.text.MessageFormat is not implemented in an efficient fashion. In particular, it does not detect that a message pattern doesn't contain argument placeholders in the first place. Therefore, it is advisable to circumvent MessageFormat for messages without arguments.

Overrides:

resolveCodeWithoutArguments in class AbstractMessageSource

Parameters:

code - the code of the message to resolve

locale - the Locale to resolve the code for (subclasses are encouraged to support internationalization)

Returns:

the message String, or null if not found

AbstractMessageSource.resolveCode(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale), MessageFormat

resolveCode

protected MessageFormat resolveCode(String code,
                                    Locale locale)

Description copied from class: AbstractMessageSource

Subclasses must implement this method to resolve a message.

Returns a MessageFormat instance rather than a message String, to allow for appropriate caching of MessageFormats in subclasses.

Subclasses are encouraged to provide optimized resolution for messages without arguments, not involving MessageFormat. See the AbstractMessageSource.resolveCodeWithoutArguments(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale) javadoc for details.

Specified by:

resolveCode in class AbstractMessageSource

Parameters:

code - the code of the message to resolve

locale - the Locale to resolve the code for (subclasses are encouraged to support internationalization)

Returns:

the MessageFormat for the message, or null if not found

See Also:

AbstractMessageSource.resolveCodeWithoutArguments(String, java.util.Locale)

addMessage

public void addMessage(String code,
                       Locale locale,
                       String msg)

Associate the given message with the given code.

Parameters:

code - the lookup code

locale - the locale that the message should be found within

msg - the message associated with this lookup code

addMessages

public void addMessages(Map<String,String> messages,
                        Locale locale)

Associate the given message values with the given keys as codes.

Parameters:

messages - the messages to register, with messages codes as keys and message texts as values

locale - the locale that the messages should be found within

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
