Java 1.1

This abstract class allows subclasses to define sets of localized resources that can then be dynamically loaded as needed by internationalized programs. Such resources may include user -visible text and images that appear in an application, as well as more complex things such as Menu objects. Use getBundle( ) to load a ResourceBundle subclass that is appropriate for the default or specified locale. Use getObject( ) , getString( ) , and getStringArray( ) to look up a named resource in a bundle. To define a bundle, provide implementations of handleGetObject( ) and getKeys( ) . It is often easier, however, to subclass ListResourceBundle or provide a Properties file that is used by PropertyResourceBundle . The name of any localized ResourceBundle class you define should include the locale language code, and, optionally , the locale country code.
