It is quite annoying, and there is a reason for it. I ran a process to move English text to properties files out of annotations, creating the properties files as necessary. In this case, AppErrors.properties existed in both "userportal-gwtp" and "webadmin", but didn't originally exist in the frontend module. Due to the way GWT i18n and GWT compiling work, default values from annotations on the interface would augment the properties values that GWT finds first on the classpath. Since AppErrors.properties in "webadmin" is closer to the compiler then AppError.properties in "frontend", webadmin will be used. This allows us to have a full set of AppErrors messages per GWT project, unique to get GWT project. It still confuses me a bit. There are better ways to do this.<br><br>ConsoleErrors and VdsmErrors do the same thing. Those 3 message bundles are on the list to do something about in the next round of work. We'll probably create a common (App|Console|Vdsm)Errors interface, move messages that are the same between the user portal and the admin portal to the common ancestor and only define app specific keys in their respective projects.<br></div><span class=""><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
Now, I know the files are not 100% equivalent, but we were adding the<br>
same messages to all of them in all the features I was working on.<br>
This leads me to believe that most of the people treat them as the<br>
same and we should only have one source for them.<br>
