Class RWT.NLS

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.rwt.RWT.NLS

Enclosing class:

RWT

public static final class RWT.NLS
extends java.lang.Object

This utility class helps to provide a similar approach for compile safe native language support than NLS does. We can not use the original approach though, due to the nature of server side environments, that have to deal with different locales per user session or even requests.

Usage:

  public class FooMessages {
    private static final String BUNDLE_NAME = "foo.bar.messages";

    public String MyMessage;

    public static FooMessages get() {
      return ( FootMessages )RWT.NLS.getISO8859_1Encoded( BUNDLE_NAME, FooMessages.class );
    }
  }
 

BUNDLE_NAME contains the name of a properties file (without file extension) that follows the conventions of standard ResourceBundle property files. For each field (in the example 'MyMessage') there has to be a key entry in the localization property file. Use the FooMessages like this in the application code:

   Label label = ...;
   label.setText( FooMessages.get().MyMessage );

Method Detail

getISO8859_1Encoded

public static java.lang.Object getISO8859_1Encoded(java.lang.String bundleName,
                                                   java.lang.Class<?> clazz)

Returns a NLS object for the given resource bundle and type. See class description for usage information. The resource bundles read by this method have to be ISO 8859-1 encoded. This is according to the Properties file specification.

Parameters:

bundleName - the resource bundle to load.

clazz - the class of the NLS object to load.

getUTF8Encoded

public static java.lang.Object getUTF8Encoded(java.lang.String bundleName,
                                              java.lang.Class<?> clazz)

Returns a NLS object for the given resource bundle and type. See class description for usage information. The resource bundles read by this method have to be UTF-8 encoded. Note that this is not according to the Properties file specification and meant for a more convenient use.

Parameters:

bundleName - the resource bundle to load.

clazz - the class of the NLS object to load.
