We are developing a strategy where classes has there own proterties-files. But the language-support was not as we expected. The problem was related to a problem in the findBundle method in ResourceBundle. We got 2 different properties-files, named packagename.DataManager_no.properties and packagename.DataManager.properties. The Class that use this properties is named packagename.Datamanager.Class. The problem occurs when a property is not in the DataManager_no.properties-file but in the DataManager.properties file. This because the findbundle method tries to load the DataManager.class file without casting it to a ResourceBundle file, and because of this the property-file with the same name as the class won't be loaded. This is a feature that we don't see is right. It should be possible to have both a class and a properties file in the same package with the same name.
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
DataManager test = new DataManager();
ResourceBundle myResources = ResourceBundle.getBundle(test.getClass().getName());
OSSSystem.out.println( myResources.getString("FEIL19")); // works cause the property is in the DataManager_no.properties file.
OSSSystem.out.println( myResources.getString("FEIL99")); // will not work because the property is in the DataManager.properties file.
}
catch (Exception ex) {
OSSSystem.out.println(ex.toString());
}
}
