Internationalization

[Loadeed]

Hello!

I created basic Spring MVC application. I wanted to add internationalization to it, but it doesn't seems to work. It finds english text, but it doesn't change, when I want to switch to another language. I have added *.properties files to src/main/resources and configure beans in root-context.xml . Below are my beans configurations and I have uploaded project here.

Thanks

Beans:

<bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
     <property name="basename" value="classpath:messages" />
     <property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8"/>
</bean>
		 
<bean id="localeChangeInterceptor" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.LocaleChangeInterceptor">
     <property name="paramName" value="lang" />
</bean>
		 
<bean id="localeResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.CookieLocaleResolver">
     <property name="defaultLocale" value="en"/>
</bean>
		 
<bean id="handlerMapping" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping">
     <property name="interceptors">
          <ref bean="localeChangeInterceptor" />
     </property>
</bean>

And why should it work.. The context is loaded by the ContextLoaderListener and the dispatcherservlet knows nothing about the reconfigured DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping. Remove the DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping from the root-context and simply configure the localChangeInterceptor in the servlet-context.xml.

I suggest a read on the web chapter on how to use the mvc namespace to register interceptors (as that is what you are using).
