Dear All,
Changing value in the resource bundle(Struts2) requires server restart?

Thanks

Thanks for your reply...
What is the reason for restarting server?

[Eduardo Yañez Parareda]

Well, indeed you don't need to restart the server, but redeploy the webapp. In case you're application have read the properties bundle, you'll need to do it, in case it haven't read the bundle, I think it isn't necessary. But where do you have the bundle?, it isn't within a WAR file? if it is in the WAR, you'll always need to redeploy the webapp.

If you are just doing development/testing, then you can enable struts dev mode. That way Struts 2 will automatically reload your resource bundle files...
