Hi Everyone, Thanks for your feedback. Here's what I've tried so far: Based on Linus' earlier message about classloaders, I used the Translator.addClassLoader method and tried passing it "this.getClass().getClassLoader()", and "Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()", neither of which seemed to make any difference.
The argoprint.properties file is in the org/argouml/i18n directory. So there should be no problem finding the file. I'm not sure how the module system works or how it's supposed to discover modules. In most of the systems I've worked on we've either used the ServiceLoader/Service class (as I've done in ArgoPrint) or Spring's Dependency Injection mechanism. The former is decidedly easier to get started with. Anyway, if you have any suggestions, I'll be glad to give them a try.
