The strings of our application are located on the server. At applicaiton start, the client loads the constants from the server and load it into a factory. The factory has a method that accepts a key and return the value.
benefits: - no new permutations - change language without reloading the application - adding a language is just adding an new property file on the server drawback: - a little bit longer start up time - no support from the IDE Ralph Fiergolla schrieb am Donnerstag, 4.
