Class CmsMultiMessages

java.lang.Object

com.frameworkset.platform.cms.driver.i18n.CmsMessages

com.frameworkset.platform.cms.driver.i18n.CmsMultiMessages

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class CmsMultiMessages
extends CmsMessages

Provides access to the localized messages for several resource bundles simultaneously.

Messages are cached for faster lookup. If a localized key is contained in more then one resource bundle, it will be used only from the resource bundle where it was first found in. The resource bundle order is undefined. It is therefore recommended to ensure the uniqueness of all module keys by placing a special prefix in front of all keys of a resource bundle.

Since:

6.0.0

Constructor Detail

CmsMultiMessages

public CmsMultiMessages(java.util.Locale locale)

Constructor for creating a new messages object initialized with the given locale.

Parameters:

locale - the locale to use for localization of the messages

Method Detail

addBundle

public void addBundle(I_CmsMessageBundle bundle)

Adds a bundle instance to this multi message bundle.

The added bundle will be localized with the locale of this multi message bundle.

Parameters:

bundle - the bundle instance to add

addMessages

public void addMessages(CmsMessages messages)
                 throws CmsIllegalArgumentException

Adds a messages instance to this multi message bundle.

The messages instance should have been initialized with the same locale as this multi bundle, if not, the locale of the messages instance is automatically replaced. However, this will not work if the added messages instance is in face also of type CmsMultiMessages.

Parameters:

messages - the messages instance to add

Throws:

CmsIllegalArgumentException - if the locale of the given CmsMultiMessages does not match the locale of this multi messages

addMessages

public void addMessages(java.util.List messages)

Adds a list a messages instances to this multi message bundle.

Parameters:

messages - the messages instance to add

getMessages

public java.util.List getMessages()

Returns the list of all individual message objects in this multi message instance.

Returns:

the list of all individual message objects in this multi message instance

getString

public java.lang.String getString(java.lang.String keyName)

Description copied from class: CmsMessages

Directly calls the getString(String) method of the wrapped ResourceBundle.

If you use this this class on a template, you should consider using the CmsMessages.key(String) method to get the value from the ResourceBundle because it handles the exception for you in a convenient way.

Overrides:

getString in class CmsMessages

Parameters:

keyName - the key

Returns:

the resource string for the given key

See Also:

CmsMessages.getString(java.lang.String)

isInitialized

public boolean isInitialized()

Description copied from class: CmsMessages

Checks if the bundle was properly initialized.

Overrides:

isInitialized in class CmsMessages

Returns:

true if bundle was initialized, false otherwise

See Also:

CmsMessages.isInitialized()

key

public java.lang.String key(java.lang.String keyName,
                            boolean allowNull)

Description copied from class: CmsMessages

Returns the localized resource string for a given message key.

If the key was not found in the bundle, the return value depends on the setting of the allowNull parameter. If set to false, the return value is always a String in the format "??? " + keyName + " ???". If set to true, null is returned if the key is not found. This will also be returned if the bundle was not properly initialized first.

Overrides:

key in class CmsMessages

Parameters:

keyName - the key for the desired string

allowNull - if true, 'null' is an allowed return value

Returns:

the resource string for the given key

CmsMessages.key(java.lang.String, boolean)
