/**
 *
 * Resource bundles contain locale-specific objects.
 * When your program needs a locale-specific resource,
 * a <code>String</code> for example, your program can load it
 * from the resource bundle that is appropriate for the
 * current user's locale. In this way, you can write
 * program code that is largely independent of the user's
 * locale isolating most, if not all, of the locale-specific
 * information in resource bundles.
 *
 * <p>
 * This allows you to write programs that can:
 * <UL type=SQUARE>
 * <LI> be easily localized, or translated, into different languages
 * <LI> handle multiple locales at once
 * <LI> be easily modified later to support even more locales
 * </UL>
 *
 * <P>
 * Resource bundles belong to families whose members share a common base 
 * name, but whose names also have additional components that identify 
 * their locales. For example, the base name of a family of resource 
 * bundles might be "MyResources". The family should have a default 
 * resource bundle which simply has the same name as its family - 
 * "MyResources" - and will be used as the bundle of last resort if a
 * specific locale is not supported. The family can then provide as
 * many locale-specific members as needed, for example a German one
 * named "MyResources_de".
 *
 * <P>
 * Each resource bundle in a family contains the same items, but the items have
 * been translated for the locale represented by that resource bundle.
 * For example, both "MyResources" and "MyResources_de" may have a
 * <code>String</code> that's used on a button for canceling operations.
 * In "MyResources" the <code>String</code> may contain "Cancel" and in
 * "MyResources_de" it may contain "Abbrechen".
 *
 * <P>
 * If there are different resources for different countries, you
 * can make specializations: for example, "MyResources_de_CH" contains objects for
 * the German language (de) in Switzerland (CH). If you want to only
 * modify some of the resources
 * in the specialization, you can do so.
 *
 * <P>
 * When your program needs a locale-specific object, it loads
 * the <code>ResourceBundle</code> class using the
 * {@link #getBundle(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale) getBundle}
 * method:
 * <blockquote>
 * <pre>
 * ResourceBundle myResources =
 *      ResourceBundle.getBundle("MyResources", currentLocale);
 * </pre>
 * </blockquote>
 *
 * <P>
 * Resource bundles contain key/value pairs. The keys uniquely
 * identify a locale-specific object in the bundle. Here's an
 * example of a <code>ListResourceBundle</code> that contains
 * two key/value pairs:
 * <blockquote>
 * <pre>
 * public class MyResources extends ListResourceBundle {
 *     protected Object[][] getContents() {
 *         return new Object[][] {
 *             // LOCALIZE THE SECOND STRING OF EACH ARRAY (e.g., "OK")
 *             {"OkKey", "OK"},
 *             {"CancelKey", "Cancel"},
 *             // END OF MATERIAL TO LOCALIZE
 *        };
 *     }
 * }
 * </pre>
 * </blockquote>
 * Keys are always <code>String</code>s.
 * In this example, the keys are "OkKey" and "CancelKey".
 * In the above example, the values
 * are also <code>String</code>s--"OK" and "Cancel"--but
 * they don't have to be. The values can be any type of object.
 *
 * <P>
 * You retrieve an object from resource bundle using the appropriate
 * getter method. Because "OkKey" and "CancelKey"
 * are both strings, you would use <code>getString</code> to retrieve them:
 * <blockquote>
 * <pre>
 * button1 = new Button(myResources.getString("OkKey"));
 * button2 = new Button(myResources.getString("CancelKey"));
 * </pre>
 * </blockquote>
 * The getter methods all require the key as an argument and return
 * the object if found. If the object is not found, the getter method
 * throws a <code>MissingResourceException</code>.
 *
 * <P>
 * Besides <code>getString</code>, <code>ResourceBundle</code> also provides
 * a method for getting string arrays, <code>getStringArray</code>,
 * as well as a generic <code>getObject</code> method for any other
 * type of object. When using <code>getObject</code>, you'll
 * have to cast the result to the appropriate type. For example:
 * <blockquote>
 * <pre>
 * int[] myIntegers = (int[]) myResources.getObject("intList");
 * </pre>
 * </blockquote>
 *
 * <P>
 * The Java Platform provides two subclasses of <code>ResourceBundle</code>,
 * <code>ListResourceBundle</code> and <code>PropertyResourceBundle</code>,
 * that provide a fairly simple way to create resources.
 * As you saw briefly in a previous example, <code>ListResourceBundle</code>
 * manages its resource as a list of key/value pairs.
 * <code>PropertyResourceBundle</code> uses a properties file to manage
 * its resources.
 *
 * <p>
 * If <code>ListResourceBundle</code> or <code>PropertyResourceBundle</code>
 * do not suit your needs, you can write your own <code>ResourceBundle</code>
 * subclass.  Your subclasses must override two methods: <code>handleGetObject</code>
 * and <code>getKeys()</code>.
 *
 * <h4>ResourceBundle.Control</h4>
 *
 * The {@link ResourceBundle.Control} class provides information necessary
 * to perform the bundle loading process by the <code>getBundle</code>
 * factory methods that take a <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code>
 * instance. You can implement your own subclass in order to enable
 * non-standard resource bundle formats, change the search strategy, or
 * define caching parameters. Refer to the descriptions of the class and the
 * {@link #getBundle(String, Locale, ClassLoader, Control) getBundle}
 * factory method for details.
 *
 * <h4>Cache Management</h4>
 *
 * Resource bundle instances created by the <code>getBundle</code> factory
 * methods are cached by default, and the factory methods return the same
 * resource bundle instance multiple times if it has been
 * cached. <code>getBundle</code> clients may clear the cache, manage the
 * lifetime of cached resource bundle instances using time-to-live values,
 * or specify not to cache resource bundle instances. Refer to the
 * descriptions of the {@linkplain #getBundle(String, Locale, ClassLoader,
 * Control) <code>getBundle</code> factory method}, {@link
 * #clearCache(ClassLoader) clearCache}, {@link
 * Control#getTimeToLive(String, Locale)
 * ResourceBundle.Control.getTimeToLive}, and {@link
 * Control#needsReload(String, Locale, String, ClassLoader, ResourceBundle,
 * long) ResourceBundle.Control.needsReload} for details.
 *
 * <h4>Example</h4>
 *
 * The following is a very simple example of a <code>ResourceBundle</code>
 * subclass, <code>MyResources</code>, that manages two resources (for a larger number of
 * resources you would probably use a <code>Map</code>).
 * Notice that you don't need to supply a value if 
 * a "parent-level" <code>ResourceBundle</code> handles the same
 * key with the same value (as for the okKey below).
 * <blockquote>
 * <pre>
 * // default (English language, United States)
 * public class MyResources extends ResourceBundle {
 *     public Object handleGetObject(String key) {
 *         if (key.equals("okKey")) return "Ok";
 *         if (key.equals("cancelKey")) return "Cancel";
 *         return null;
 *     }
 * 
 *     public Enumeration<String> getKeys() {
 *         return Collections.enumeration(keySet());
 *     }
 * 
 *     // Overrides handleKeySet() so that the getKeys() implementation
 *     // can rely on the keySet() value.
 *     protected Set<String> handleKeySet() {
 *         return new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList("okKey", "cancelKey"));
 *     }
 * }
 *
 * // German language
 * public class MyResources_de extends MyResources {
 *     public Object handleGetObject(String key) {
 *         // don't need okKey, since parent level handles it.
 *         if (key.equals("cancelKey")) return "Abbrechen";
 *         return null;
 *     }
 * 
 *     protected Set<String> handleKeySet() {
 *         return new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList("cancelKey"));
 *     }
 * }
 * </pre>
 * </blockquote>
 * You do not have to restrict yourself to using a single family of
 * <code>ResourceBundle</code>s. For example, you could have a set of bundles for
 * exception messages, <code>ExceptionResources</code>
 * (<code>ExceptionResources_fr</code>, <code>ExceptionResources_de</code>, ...),
 * and one for widgets, <code>WidgetResource</code> (<code>WidgetResources_fr</code>,
 * <code>WidgetResources_de</code>, ...); breaking up the resources however you like.

     * Conceptually, <code>getBundle</code> uses the following strategy for locating and instantiating
     * resource bundles:
     * <p>
     * <code>getBundle</code> uses the base name, the specified locale, and the default
     * locale (obtained from {@link java.util.Locale#getDefault() Locale.getDefault})
     * to generate a sequence of <a name="candidates"><em>candidate bundle names</em></a>.
     * If the specified locale's language, country, and variant are all empty
     * strings, then the base name is the only candidate bundle name.
     * Otherwise, the following sequence is generated from the attribute
     * values of the specified locale (language1, country1, and variant1)
     * and of the default locale (language2, country2, and variant2):
     * <ul>
     * <li> baseName + "_" + language1 + "_" + country1 + "_" + variant1
     * <li> baseName + "_" + language1 + "_" + country1
     * <li> baseName + "_" + language1
     * <li> baseName + "_" + language2 + "_" + country2 + "_" + variant2
     * <li> baseName + "_" + language2 + "_" + country2
     * <li> baseName + "_" + language2
     * <li> baseName
     * </ul>
     * <p>
     * Candidate bundle names where the final component is an empty string are omitted.
     * For example, if country1 is an empty string, the second candidate bundle name is omitted.
     *
     * <p>
     * <code>getBundle</code> then iterates over the candidate bundle names to find the first
     * one for which it can <em>instantiate</em> an actual resource bundle. For each candidate
     * bundle name, it attempts to create a resource bundle:
     * <ul>
     * <li>
     * First, it attempts to load a class using the candidate bundle name.
     * If such a class can be found and loaded using the specified class loader, is assignment
     * compatible with ResourceBundle, is accessible from ResourceBundle, and can be instantiated,
     * <code>getBundle</code> creates a new instance of this class and uses it as the <em>result
     * resource bundle</em>.
     * <li>
     * Otherwise, <code>getBundle</code> attempts to locate a property resource file.
     * It generates a path name from the candidate bundle name by replacing all "." characters
     * with "/" and appending the string ".properties".
     * It attempts to find a "resource" with this name using
     * {@link java.lang.ClassLoader#getResource(java.lang.String) ClassLoader.getResource}.
     * (Note that a "resource" in the sense of <code>getResource</code> has nothing to do with
     * the contents of a resource bundle, it is just a container of data, such as a file.)
     * If it finds a "resource", it attempts to create a new
     * {@link PropertyResourceBundle} instance from its contents.
     * If successful, this instance becomes the <em>result resource bundle</em>.
     * </ul>
     *
     * <p>
     * If no result resource bundle has been found, a <code>MissingResourceException</code>
     * is thrown.
     *
     * <p><a name="parent_chain"/>
     * Once a result resource bundle has been found, its <em>parent chain</em> is instantiated.
     * <code>getBundle</code> iterates over the candidate bundle names that can be
     * obtained by successively removing variant, country, and language
     * (each time with the preceding "_") from the bundle name of the result resource bundle.
     * As above, candidate bundle names where the final component is an empty string are omitted.
     * With each of the candidate bundle names it attempts to instantiate a resource bundle, as
     * described above.
     * Whenever it succeeds, it calls the previously instantiated resource
     * bundle's {@link #setParent(java.util.ResourceBundle) setParent} method
     * with the new resource bundle, unless the previously instantiated resource
     * bundle already has a non-null parent.
     *
     * <p>
     * <code>getBundle</code> caches instantiated resource bundles and
     * may return the same resource bundle instance multiple
     * times.
     *
     * <p>
     * The <code>baseName</code> argument should be a fully qualified class name. However, for
     * compatibility with earlier versions, Sun's Java SE Runtime Environments do not verify this,
     * and so it is possible to access <code>PropertyResourceBundle</code>s by specifying a
     * path name (using "/") instead of a fully qualified class name (using ".").

     *
     * <p>
     * <ol>
     * <li>This factory method looks up the resource bundle in the cache for

     * found in the cache and the time-to-live periods of the instance and

     * to the caller. Otherwise, this factory method proceeds with the
     * loading process below.</li>
     *
     * <li>The {@link ResourceBundle.Control#getFormats(String)
     * control.getFormats} method is called to get resource bundle formats
     * to produce bundle or resource names. The strings
     * <code>"java.class"</code> and <code>"java.properties"</code>
     * designate class-based and {@linkplain PropertyResourceBundle
     * property}-based resource bundles, respectively. Other strings
     * starting with <code>"java."</code> are reserved for future extensions
     * and must not be used for application-defined formats. Other strings
     * designate application-defined formats.</li>
     *
     * <li>The {@link ResourceBundle.Control#getCandidateLocales(String,
     * Locale) control.getCandidateLocales} method is called with the target
     * locale to get a list of <em>candidate <code>Locale</code>s</em> for
     * which resource bundles are searched.</li>
     *
     * <li>The {@link ResourceBundle.Control#newBundle(String, Locale,
     * String, ClassLoader, boolean) control.newBundle} method is called to
     * instantiate a <code>ResourceBundle</code> for the base bundle name, a
     * candidate locale, and a format. (Refer to the note on the cache
     * lookup below.) This step is iterated over all combinations of the
     * candidate locales and formats until the <code>newBundle</code> method
     * returns a <code>ResourceBundle</code> instance or the iteration has
     * used up all the combinations. For example, if the candidate locales
     * are <code>Locale("de", "DE")</code>, <code>Locale("de")</code> and
     * <code>Locale("")</code> and the formats are <code>"java.class"</code>
     * and <code>"java.properties"</code>, then the following is the

     * bundle, proceed to Step 7.</li>
     *
     * <li>The {@link ResourceBundle.Control#getFallbackLocale(String,
     * Locale) control.getFallbackLocale} method is called to get a fallback
     * locale (alternative to the current target locale) to try further
     * finding a resource bundle. If the method returns a non-null locale,
     * it becomes the next target locale and the loading process starts over
     * from Step 3. Otherwise, if a base bundle was found and put on hold in
     * a previous Step 5, it is returned to the caller now. Otherwise, a
     * MissingResourceException is thrown.</li>
     *
     * <li>At this point, we have found a resource bundle that's not the
     * base bundle. If this bundle set its parent during its instantiation,
     * it is returned to the caller. Otherwise, its <a
     * href="./ResourceBundle.html#parent_chain">parent chain</a> is

     *
     *
     * </ol>
     *
     * <p>During the resource bundle loading process above, this factory
     * method looks up the cache before calling the {@link
     * Control#newBundle(String, Locale, String, ClassLoader, boolean)
     * control.newBundle} method.  If the time-to-live period of the
     * resource bundle found in the cache has expired, the factory method
     * calls the {@link ResourceBundle.Control#needsReload(String, Locale,
     * String, ClassLoader, ResourceBundle, long) control.needsReload}
     * method to determine whether the resource bundle needs to be reloaded.
     * If reloading is required, the factory method calls
     * <code>control.newBundle</code> to reload the resource bundle.  If
     * <code>control.newBundle</code> returns <code>null</code>, the factory
     * method puts a dummy resource bundle in the cache as a mark of
     * nonexistent resource bundles in order to avoid lookup overhead for
     * subsequent requests. Such dummy resource bundles are under the same
     * expiration control as specified by <code>control</code>.
     *
     * <p>All resource bundles loaded are cached by default. Refer to
     * {@link Control#getTimeToLive(String,Locale)
     * control.getTimeToLive} for details.
     *
     *
     * <p>The following is an example of the bundle loading process with the
     * default <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> implementation.
     * 
     * <p>Conditions:
     * <ul>
     * <li>Base bundle name: <code>foo.bar.Messages</code>
     * <li>Requested <code>Locale</code>: {@link Locale#ITALY}</li>
     * <li>Default <code>Locale</code>: {@link Locale#FRENCH}</li>
     * <li>Available resource bundles:
     * <code>foo/bar/Messages_fr.properties</code> and
     * <code>foo/bar/Messages.properties</code></li>
     *
     * </ul>
     *
     * <p>First, <code>getBundle</code> tries loading a resource bundle in
     * the following sequence.
     *
     * <ul>
     * <li>class <code>foo.bar.Messages_it_IT</code>
     * <li>file <code>foo/bar/Messages_it_IT.properties</code>

     * <li>class <code>foo.bar.Messages</code></li>
     * <li>file <code>foo/bar/Messages.properties</code></li>
     * </ul>
     *
     * <p>At this point, <code>getBundle</code> finds
     * <code>foo/bar/Messages.properties</code>, which is put on hold
     * because it's the base bundle.  <code>getBundle</code> calls {@link

    /**
     * <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> defines a set of callback methods
     * that are invoked by the {@link ResourceBundle#getBundle(String,
     * Locale, ClassLoader, Control) ResourceBundle.getBundle} factory
     * methods during the bundle loading process. In other words, a
     * <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> collaborates with the factory
     * methods for loading resource bundles. The default implementation of
     * the callback methods provides the information necessary for the
     * factory methods to perform the <a
     * href="./ResourceBundle.html#default_behavior">default behavior</a>.
     *
     * <p>In addition to the callback methods, the {@link
     * #toBundleName(String, Locale) toBundleName} and {@link
     * #toResourceName(String, String) toResourceName} methods are defined
     * primarily for convenience in implementing the callback
     * methods. However, the <code>toBundleName</code> method could be
     * overridden to provide different conventions in the organization and
     * packaging of localized resources.  The <code>toResourceName</code>
     * method is <code>final</code> to avoid use of wrong resource and class
     * name separators.
     *
     * <p>Two factory methods, {@link #getControl(List)} and {@link
     * #getNoFallbackControl(List)}, provide
     * <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> instances that implement common
     * variations of the default bundle loading process.
     *
     * <p>The formats returned by the {@link Control#getFormats(String)
     * getFormats} method and candidate locales returned by the {@link
     * ResourceBundle.Control#getCandidateLocales(String, Locale)
     * getCandidateLocales} method must be consistent in all
     * <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code> invocations for the same base
     * bundle. Otherwise, the <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code> methods
     * may return unintended bundles. For example, if only
     * <code>"java.class"</code> is returned by the <code>getFormats</code>
     * method for the first call to <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code>
     * and only <code>"java.properties"</code> for the second call, then the
     * second call will return the class-based one that has been cached
     * during the first call.
     *
     * <p>A <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> instance must be thread-safe
     * if it's simultaneously used by multiple threads.
     * <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code> does not synchronize to call
     * the <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> methods. The default
     * implementations of the methods are thread-safe.
     *
     * <p>Applications can specify <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code>
     * instances returned by the <code>getControl</code> factory methods or
     * created from a subclass of <code>ResourceBundle.Control</code> to
     * customize the bundle loading process. The following are examples of
     * changing the default bundle loading process.
     *
     * <p><b>Example 1</b>
     *
     * <p>The following code lets <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code> look
     * up only properties-based resources.
     *
     * <pre>
     * import java.util.*;
     * import static java.util.ResourceBundle.Control.*;
     * ...
     * ResourceBundle bundle =
     *   ResourceBundle.getBundle("MyResources", new Locale("fr", "CH"),
     *                            ResourceBundle.Control.getControl(FORMAT_PROPERTIES));
     * </pre>
     *
     * Given the resource bundles in the <a
     * href="./ResourceBundle.html#default_behavior_example">example</a> in
     * the <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code> description, this
     * <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle</code> call loads
     * <code>MyResources_fr_CH.properties</code> whose parent is
     * <code>MyResources_fr.properties</code> whose parent is
     * <code>MyResources.properties</code>. (<code>MyResources_fr_CH.properties</code>
     * is not hidden, but <code>MyResources_fr_CH.class</code> is.)
     *
     * <p><b>Example 2</b>
     *
     * <p>The following is an example of loading XML-based bundles
     * using {@link Properties#loadFromXML(java.io.InputStream)
     * Properties.loadFromXML}.
