Spring 5.0 Cookbook

Overview of this book

The Spring framework has been the go-to framework for Java developers for quite some time. It enhances modularity, provides more readable code, and enables the developer to focus on developing the application while the underlying framework takes care of transaction APIs, remote APIs, JMX APIs, and JMS APIs. The upcoming version of the Spring Framework has a lot to offer, above and beyond the platform upgrade to Java 9, and this book will show you all you need to know to overcome common to advanced problems you might face. Each recipe will showcase some old and new issues and solutions, right from configuring Spring 5.0 container to testing its components. Most importantly, the book will highlight concurrent processes, asynchronous MVC and reactive programming using Reactor Core APIs. Aside from the core components, this book will also include integration of third-party technologies that are mostly needed in building enterprise applications. By the end of the book, the reader will not only be well versed with the essential concepts of Spring, but will also have mastered its latest features in a solution-oriented manner.

Preface

Using ResourceBundleMessageSource for Views


As far as possible, all @Bean of a Spring MVC project must be managed by its context definition classes. The labels, content headings, and tab title of the view pages, which the majority of developers take for granted, must not be hardcoded but declared also as Spring-managed components.

Getting started

This recipe will manage lighter features of an application such as error names, labels, header names, and titles using the ApplicationContext.

How to do it...

Let us add view labels and titles to the previous projects ch02-web-xml and ch02-web-jc, through the following steps:

  1. In ch02-web-xml, create a messages_en_US.properties file in the src\main\resources\config directory.
  2. A configuration file is composed of a code and message pair. The key is called the lookup of the message and also called the code of the message. Open messages_en_US.properties and add the following label to be used later in our title bar:
title=Creating View Titles 
  1. Add another message...
