Package jpicedt

Class Localizer

  • public class Localizer
extends java.lang.Object
    Localizer for all classes of the jpicedt's tree.
    It uses "lang/i18n_xx_yy.properties" resource file, where xx_yy is the Locale. If not found, uses "lang/i18n.properties" (same as i18n_en.properties) As of 2005/12, support for localized help-files added by Jobst Hoffmann.

        public java.lang.String getDefaultLanguage()
        Returns:

Finally, the current Locale is written back to the given Properties to reflect change (if any, e.g. if the Locale was not found in the Properties object).

        public java.lang.String get​(java.lang.String key)
        Returns:
