public class Resources

extends java.lang.Object

Manages localized resources used by WebLogic Process Integrator client classes. This static class locates and caches ResourceBundles (including a default bundle used by all classes in this package). The class provides methods to retrieve localized strings, characters and parameterized messages from either the default bundle or one named by the caller. The latter facility is for use by other client packages. The locale is a global (i.e., static) attribute, initially set to the system default. The locale may be set programmatically by calling the static method setLocale(java.util.Locale). The default resource bundle is backed by the properties file com/bea/wlpi/client/common/text/Text.properties or a localized version thereof (e.g. ~/Text_en_US.properties).
