| I'm going to suggest that we adopt Chris's approach. Each plugin will have an org.eclipse.ptp.xxx.messages package which will contain Messages.java and messages.properties.

1. As Chris does in CDT, have an independent plugin to centralize all the externalized messages.
2. As many PTP plugins doing currently, have Message.java and message.properties for each plugin to externalize the strings on that plugin.
I guess people like the one which is easier to achieve from what we have now.

Re: [ptp-dev] Externalized messages on PTP | | <ecblank.gif> | <ecblank.gif> | | Yes I just think we need some consistency - or at least encouragement to do something somewhat consistent - as you said we haven't always done this.
In the parts of PLDT where I used messages, I usually just put a getResourceString() in the plugin class and put a messages.properties in the directory of the base package in each plugin.
I think that's OK too, but anything more consistent than what we have now (no policy) is probably fine too.

No, there's no policy, but now seems like a good time to make one. I
notice that Chris has created an org.eclipse.ptp.rdt.core.messages
package with Messages.java and messages.properties. This seems like a
good idea to me. Anyone have any strong feelings about this?
