fully qualified if not in

have a useful
toString() method, and the
corresponding MessageFormat placeholders
must be strings; they must be of the form {n} .
Argument names can be any valid name. There can
be no more than 10 arguments.
For each argument there must be at least one
corresponding placeholder in the
messagebody
element described below. Placeholders are of the
form
{n} , {n,number} or {n,date} .

method="getNoAuthorization
(String filename, java.util.Date
creDate)"
This example would result in a method in the
TextFormatter class as follows:
public String getNoAuthorization
(String filename, java.util.Date
creDate)
