public class ListResourceBundle
extends ResourceBundle

ListResourceBundle supplies resources for a locale. Subclasses override getContents, and supply an array, where each item in the array is a pair of objects. The first element of each pair is a String key, and the second is the value associated with that key.

In the following example, the keys are of the form "s1"... The actual keys are entirely up to your choice, so long as they match what is in your source; just remember that they are case-sensitive.

Example:

     //====================
     class MyResource extends ListResourceBundle {
     	public Object[][] getContents() {
     		return contents;
     	}
     	static final Object[][] contents = {
     	// LOCALIZE THIS
     		{"s1", "3"},		// starting value in choice field
     		{"s2", "MyDisk"},	// starting value in string field
     		{"s3", "3 Mar 96"},	// starting value in date field
     		{"s4", "The disk '{1}' contained {0} on {2}."},	// initial pattern
     		{"s5", "0"},		// first choice number
     		{"s6", "no files"},	// first choice value
     		{"s7", "1"},		// second choice number
     		{"s8", "one file"},	// second choice value
     		{"s9", "2"},		// third choice number
     		{"s10", "{0}|3 files"},	// third choice value
     		{"s11", "format threw an exception: {0}"},	// generic exception message
     		{"s12", "ERROR"},	// what to show in field in case of error
     		{"s14", "Result"},	// label for formatted stuff
     		{"s13", "Dialog"},	// standard font
     		{"s15", "Pattern"},	// label for standard pattern
     		{"s16", new Dimension(1,5)}	// real object, not just string
     	// END OF MATERIAL TO LOCALIZE
     	};
     }
     //====================
     class MyResource_FR  extends ListResourceBundle {
     	public Object[][] getContents() {
     		return contents;
    }
     	static final Object[][] contents = {
     	// LOCALIZE THIS
     		{"s1", "3"},		// starting value in choice field
     		{"s2", "MonDisk"},	// starting value in string field
     		{"s3", "3 Mar 96"},	// starting value in date field
     		{"s4", "Le disk '{1}' a {0} a {2}."},	// initial pattern
     		{"s5", "0"},		// first choice number
     		{"s6", "pas de files"},	// first choice value

     		{"s11", "Le format a jete une exception: {0}"},	// generic exception message
     		{"s12", "ERROR"},	// what to show in field in case of error
     		{"s14", "Resulte"},	// label for formatted stuff
     		{"s13", "Dialogue"},	// standard font
