Spring Message Interpolation Argument Replacement using Hibernate Validator

Question

https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/validator/5.0/reference/en-US/html/chapter-message-interpolation.html

According to the hibernate validation documentation, the following can be done where {min} and {max} parameters are replaced in error message accordingly.

 @Size(
            min = 2,
            max = 14,
            message = "The license plate must be between {min} and {max} characters long"
    )

I am using this notation in a Spring application but these arguments are not replaced. I get back "The license plate must be between min and max characters long"

Do I need to configure the validator differently to make this work?

Here is my configuration:

<bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
<property name="basenames">
<list>
<value>messages</value>
</list>
</property>
<property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8"/> 
<property name="useCodeAsDefaultMessage" value="true"/>
</bean>

   <bean id="validator" class="org.springframework.validation.beanvalidation.LocalValidatorFactoryBean">
        <property name="validationMessageSource" ref="messageSource"/>
    </bean>

Answer 1

I find the reason. It's caused by the property "useCodeAsDefaultMessage", we can't set it to "true",just use default value "false". It seems that if it is true, just get the messages from the properties file in the "basenames", and don't use the default message file in the classpath root path or "org/hibernate/validator"!
