public class Locale_en_US
extends java.util.ListResourceBundle

This class provides the localization information for english language and US country scheme (e.g. keyboard layout). All text messages for the whole Application are stored in this class's rather giant key-value Object[][] attribute with the key being the first argument (a constant String) and the value the second argument.
As the locale is dynamically linked to the application, a MissingRessourceException is thrown during startup if you use a key not specified in this class. So please NEVER modify the keys!
If you want to create your own localized version of the application, just create a copy of this class in the same directory and change the en to your target language (a pair of lowercase letters that conform to ISO-639), and the US to your target country scheme (two uppercase letters that conform to ISO-3166) in both filename and classname. After that, just try not to get bored while translating all the right-hand String values assigned to the keys. Again: DO NOT TRANSLATE THE KEYS!
By convention, the first part of each key consists of the full qualified package name, followed by an underscore (_), the class name, underscore, method- or attribute name, underscore and then your identifier. Some general keys like the captions of buttons used everywhere throughout the application etc. are stored with the prefix general_.
This class is also made globally accessible in the ControlCenter class.
Throughout the application, the contents of this class are accessible via the getObject(key) method. Note that an Object is returned which normally has to be casted to a String. On the other hand, also menu mnemonics are saved in here, so no specific casting takes place in this class.
Example:
Let's say you want to extract the caption for an APPLY-button. For this application, it is stored under the key "general_Apply" Via the ControlCenter instance set up during program startup (suppose you have a reference in your class called cc), you have access to the ResourceBundle for your locale (in fact, you are just reading the class info of the ResourceBundle for english language...), named rb in the ControlCenter class and declared as public there. You want to extract a String, but as said before, an Object is returned, so you might have to cast to avoid an error during compilation.
So all you have to do is:
(1) get the object stored under the specified key you are looking for:
`Object obj = cc.op.getObject ("general_apply"): <\code>
(2) cast it to a String:
`String myCaption = (String)obj; <\code>
(3) use it whichever way you want:
`JButton myApplyButton = new JButton (myCaption);<\code>
(4) or, to save time writing code, you can do this all in one step:
`JButton myApplyButton = new JButton ((String)cc.op.get ("general_apply"));<\code>
Analogously, the Mnemonics are stored as objects of class Integer, so you have to cast to an Integer then and get the int value by invoking the Integer.intValue() method.
