As another example, when the MyUtilLog.xml catalog is used, the class
programs.utils.MyUtilLogger.class is generated. For each log message defined
in the catalog, this class contains static public methods as defined by the method
attribute.
TextFormatter classes are generated for each simple message catalog. These classes
include static methods for accessing localized and formatted text from the catalog.
They are convenience classes that handle the interface with the message body,
placeholders, and
MessageFormat . You specify the formatting methods through the
method attribute in each message definition. For example, if the definition of a
message in a catalog includes the attribute,
method=getErrorNumber(int err) , the
TextFormatter class shown in Listing 4-1 is generated.
Listing 4-1 Example of a TextFormatter Class
package my.text;
public class xyzTextFormatter
{
. . .
public String getErrorNumber(int err)
{
. . .
}
}
Listing 4-2 shows an example of how the getErrorNumber method could be used in
code.
Listing 4-2 Example of getErrorNumber Method
import my.text.xyzTextFormatter
. . .
xyzTextFormatter xyzL10n = new xyzTextFormatter();
System.out.println(xyzL10n.getErrorNumber(someVal));
