public class PropertyResourceBundle
extends ResourceBundle

PropertyResourceBundle is an abstract subclass of ResourceBundle that manages resources for a locale using a set of static strings from a property file. See ResourceBundle for more information about resource bundles in general.

The property file contains the keys that you use in your source code in calls to ResourceBundle.getString and similar methods, and their corresponding values, etc. The name of the property file indicates the resource bundle's family and locale.

In the following example, the keys are of the form "s1"... The actual keys are entirely up to your choice, so long as they are the same as the keys you use in your program to retrieve the objects from the bundle. Keys are case-sensitive.

 s1=3
 s2=MeinDisk
 s3=3 Mar 96
 s4=Der disk '{1}' a {0} a {2}.
 s5=0
 s6=keine Datein
 s7=1
 s8=ein Datei
 s9=2
 s10={0}|3 Datein
 s11=Der Format worf ein Exception: {0}
 s12=ERROR
 s14=Resulte
 s13=Dialogue
 s15=Pattern
 s16=1,3
