[PATCH] Simplifications to Language Resource Files





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-07-17 23:00 -------
BTW, even though the language resource file must directly extend from 
ListResourceBundle, does IBM allow for it to also implement an interface?  

That would make things much easier--we can place in an interface, say 
XSLTMessageConstants, all those constants, and just change the first line of 
each class to "extends ListResourceBundle implements XSLTMessageConstants".  
That way we don't have to preface each of the constants with a class name.  

You have a LOT of unused functions and other bloat in each of the classes that 
will be cleaned out by that patch.  If your management will allow it, I would 
highly recommend applying the patch first, and just create the trivial 
XSLTMessageConstants interface next.  (I'll happily do the latter for you, but 
it is *much* easier and a less confusing patch if the former is done first--it 
would be very tiring to go through that old code again!)
