Hi all. Suppose I have some GUI form which uses a ResourceBundle to load its strings.
ResourceBundle.getBundle() is being used to actually get the strings. In fact, the code which does this is code generated by Matisse under NetBeans, and there appears to be no direct way to customise that detail (though I am not yet a Matisse expert, either.) Now suppose we need to support translations of the resources. Any translations we ship out of the box are easy -- we can put the Bundle_xx_YY.properties files at the appropriate location and it will be on the classpath, so it should load correctly. (Whether this is the right thing to do under OSGi is another matter entirely of course...) But what about support for additional languages in separate bundles? My own bundle won't (can't?) have a dependency on some bundle which was built in the future, so it won't see the properties file on the classpath unless I do something special to get around this. Presumably this is a common situation in OSGi, so there must be a proper solution to the problem. But I haven't yet seen an example of how to do it so I thought I would check here to see if anyone else had walked this path before.
