If you're not using MXML databinding to write code like
<Button id="b" label="{resourceManager.getString(...)}"/>
then you can override the resourcesChanged() method and reassign the new
string, as in
b.label = resourceManager.getString(...);
The ResourceManager works with resources in ResourceBundles, which
normally get compiled from .properties files. Are you loading
.properties files at runtime and parsing them yourself to get keys and
values? In that case, you can create new instances of ResourceBundle at
runtime, put your resources into them, and install them into the
ResourceManager like this:
var rb:ResourceBundle = new ResourceBundle(locale, bundleName);
rb.content[key1] = value1;
rb.content[key2] = value2;
...
resourceManager.addResourceBundle(rb);

Gordon,
Forgive me (or ignore this) if it's in the docs.
Does this assume that the ResourceManager.getString call is in the
binding expression?
Currently I have some static utilities that load strings like "Hello,
{0}" from properties files and then do parameter substitution. I've
been wondering how that would work out in a runtime locale switching
scenario.
