Firstly, why do you want to use whitespace? No end user is ever going
to see the key.
Secondly, I just tried this
Properties p = new Properties();
p.load(A file with keys containing ws);
A resource bundle that loads from a file uses a
PropertiesResourceBundle, which calls the load() method.The problem
you describe is in the implementation of the parser that loads
properties files
That said you can implement your resource bundle as a class (a
subclass of ListResourceBundle) and then you can have whitespace in
the keys. But, that's hardly ideal as a change would require a
recompile.
There is another option for Properties which you can not use for
resource bundles unfortunately. You write your properties file in XML
and use loadFromXML() instead of load(). Then you can have whitespace.
As I said you can't use XML for resource bundles as
PropertiesResourceBundles only calls load().
