Package org.apache.tapestry5.services.messages

Interface ComponentMessagesSource

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    ComponentMessagesSourceImpl
    @UsesOrderedConfiguration(Resource.class)
public interface ComponentMessagesSource
    Used to connect a Tapestry component to its message catalog, or to obtain the application catalog (that all component message catalogs extend from). The application catalog is defined by the collection of Resources contributed to the service. In general, component libraries will contribute a Resource before the "AppCatalog" resource (representing the application message catalog, WEB-INF/app.properties) so that the application can override messages of the component library.
