Rules of Precedence

The following is the hierarchy of precedence for different Language.properties files to override each other:

1. Language-ext.properties takes precedence over Language.properties.

2. Language specific versions take precedence over the non language specific versions. For example, Language_en.properties takes precedence over Language.properties.

3. Location specific versions take precedence over the non location specific versions. For example, Language_en_US.properties takes precedence over Language_en.properties.

For the Language.properties file for English, the following is the hierarchy of precedence, where Language-ext_en_US.properties will have the highest precedence and the Language.properties file will have the least precedence:

1. Language-ext_en_US.properties

2. Language_en_US.properties

3. Language-ext_en.properties

4. Language_en.properties

5. Language-ext.properties

6. Language.properties
