Re: [equinox-dev] Accessing ResourceBundles from a bundle

[BJ Hargrave <hargrave@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From looking at the ResourceBundle class,
ResourceBundle.getBundle(String) will use the context class loader of the
caller to locate the resource bundle. This means it will use the classloader
of the bundle which loaded the class which defines the method which calls
ResourceBundle.getBundle(String).

So if the class which defines the method
comes from a different bundle (imported package) than the resource, the
resource probably will not be located.

Hi, 

Is there any knwon problem using the java API   ResourceBundle.getResourceBundle(String
baseName) from the code of a bundle? 
It does not work in the implementation that I have.
