Class ResourceHandle
java.lang.Object
org.eclipse.birt.core.i18n.ResourceHandle
Represents a set of resources for a given package and locale. This class will
associate with a user session. Each user session has a single locale. This
class assumes that the resources are in the same location as the class
itself, and are named "Messages.properties", "Messages_xx.properties", etc.
Once stable, the application will not access a message that does not exist. To help get the system stable, this class raises an assertion if the message key refers to a missing exception. The class then returns the message key itself as the message.
This class primarily works with messages. It can be extended to work with other resources as the need arises.
