StringManager

• java.lang.Object

Fields Summary
private ResourceBundle	bundle The ResourceBundle for this StringManager.
private static Hashtable	managers

Constructors Summary
private StringManager(String packageName) Creates a new StringManager for a given package. This is a private method and all access to it is arbitrated by the static getManager method call so that only one StringManager per package will be created. param packageName Name of package to create StringManager for. this( packageName, Locale.getDefault() );
private StringManager(String packageName, Locale loc) String bundleName = packageName + ".LocalStrings"; try { bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle(bundleName,loc); } catch( MissingResourceException ex ) { bundle= ResourceBundle.getBundle( bundleName, Locale.US); }
private StringManager(ResourceBundle bundle) this.bundle=bundle;

Methods Summary
public static synchronized org.apache.tomcat.util.res.StringManager	getManager(java.lang.String packageName) Get the StringManager for a particular package. If a manager for a package already exists, it will be reused, else a new StringManager will be created and returned. param packageName StringManager mgr = (StringManager)managers.get(packageName); if (mgr == null) { mgr = new StringManager(packageName); managers.put(packageName, mgr); } return mgr;
public static synchronized org.apache.tomcat.util.res.StringManager	getManager(java.util.ResourceBundle bundle) Get the StringManager for a particular package. If a manager for a package already exists, it will be reused, else a new StringManager will be created and returned. param packageName return new StringManager( bundle );
public static synchronized org.apache.tomcat.util.res.StringManager	getManager(java.lang.String packageName, java.util.Locale loc) Get the StringManager for a particular package and Locale. If a manager for a package already exists, it will be reused, else a new StringManager will be created for that Locale and returned. param packageName StringManager mgr = (StringManager)managers.get(packageName+"_"+loc.toString()); if (mgr == null) { mgr = new StringManager(packageName,loc); managers.put(packageName+"_"+loc.toString(), mgr); } return mgr;
public java.lang.String	getString(java.lang.String key) Get a string from the underlying resource bundle or return null if the String is not found. param key to desired resource String return resource String matching key from underlying bundle or null if not found. throws IllegalArgumentException if key is null. if(key == null){ String msg = "key may not have a null value"; throw new IllegalArgumentException(msg); } String str = null; try{ str = bundle.getString(key); }catch(MissingResourceException mre){ //bad: shouldn't mask an exception the following way: // str = "[cannot find message associated with key '" + key + "' due to " + mre + "]"; // because it hides the fact that the String was missing // from the calling code. //good: could just throw the exception (or wrap it in another) // but that would probably cause much havoc on existing // code. //better: consistent with container pattern to // simply return null. Calling code can then do // a null check. str = null; } return str;
public java.lang.String	getString(java.lang.String key, java.lang.Object[] args) Get a string from the underlying resource bundle and format it with the given set of arguments. param key param args String iString = null; String value = getString(key); // this check for the runtime exception is some pre 1.1.6 // VM's don't do an automatic toString() on the passed in // objects and barf out try { // ensure the arguments are not null so pre 1.2 VM's don't barf if(args==null){ args = new Object[1]; } Object[] nonNullArgs = args; for (int i=0; i<args.length; i++) { if (args[i] == null) { if (nonNullArgs==args){ nonNullArgs=(Object[])args.clone(); } nonNullArgs[i] = "null"; } } if( value==null ) value=key; iString = MessageFormat.format(value, nonNullArgs); } catch (IllegalArgumentException iae) { StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer(); buf.append(value); for (int i = 0; i < args.length; i++) { buf.append(" arg[" + i + "]=" + args[i]); } iString = buf.toString(); } return iString;
public java.lang.String	getString(java.lang.String key, java.lang.Object arg) Get a string from the underlying resource bundle and format it with the given object argument. This argument can of course be a String object. param key param arg Object[] args = new Object[] {arg}; return getString(key, args);
public java.lang.String	getString(java.lang.String key, java.lang.Object arg1, java.lang.Object arg2) Get a string from the underlying resource bundle and format it with the given object arguments. These arguments can of course be String objects. param key param arg1 param arg2 Object[] args = new Object[] {arg1, arg2}; return getString(key, args);
public java.lang.String	getString(java.lang.String key, java.lang.Object arg1, java.lang.Object arg2, java.lang.Object arg3) Get a string from the underlying resource bundle and format it with the given object arguments. These arguments can of course be String objects. param key param arg1 param arg2 param arg3 Object[] args = new Object[] {arg1, arg2, arg3}; return getString(key, args);
public java.lang.String	getString(java.lang.String key, java.lang.Object arg1, java.lang.Object arg2, java.lang.Object arg3, java.lang.Object arg4) Get a string from the underlying resource bundle and format it with the given object arguments. These arguments can of course be String objects. param key param arg1 param arg2 param arg3 param arg4 Object[] args = new Object[] {arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4}; return getString(key, args);
